MinutemanCDC_SC's post was on the 9th this "clarification" was posted on the 11th. The post of the 9th was the post at Orly's site in its entirety. I remember being floored by it.The post of the 11th is "reflection" or "ass covering".
But not the context.
In the first paragraph he talks about even Marines being intimidated. Clearly that is referring to Judge Carter, yet the thread is about action in Judge Lamberth'a court.
The poster is worried that Judge Lamberth will be intimidated, just he tells us he thinks Judge Carter, the Marine, was.
Yea, the original post wasn't very clear, but the explanation/clarification fits perfectly well with the original post. It's not just ass covering.
