Lawyering is a business, a lawyer doesn’t have to believe in his clients mindset or agenda.

There are lawyers who KNOW their client is guilty of the criminal charges against them but they’ll work their butt’s off him or her for the paycheck.

A lawyer is taught, or at least was taught, that you don’t take cases where you have a moral objection. This is not a criminal case where guilt must be proven and there is a process of defense and conviction.

This is a civil matter.

What convervative groups does Olson belong to? Those groups need to be targetted with protests and denied money.

Sadly, Ted Olson needs to become poison to those organizations.

you are confusing criminal and civil.

criminal is a different process and standard of proof.

Civil suits require more moral consideration. You don’t get an ethical free pass if your morals are in conflict.

Ted Olson has no problem with homosexual marriage, that is why he is fighting for it. I would suggest ALL those in his pollitical sphere side with him.
