Erick Erickson reported today on RedState that expected Democrat for governor candidate in Texas, Wendy Davis, once claimed in court her mental health was damaged by negative coverage of her city council campaign in a local newspaper. Davis, labeled as the abortion Barbie by some, after her filibuster of the abortion restrictions that later passed in the Texas legislature, is considered the Democrats leading candidate to run for governor of the state in 2014.
In 1996, Davis had run for city council in Fort Worth, Texas, and lost the election. She filed suit against the Fort Worth Star-Telegram for defamation.
As Erickson noted, The Texas Court of Appeals and then the Texas Supreme Court both threw out her case. But it is worth noting that Davis, in making her case, claimed that the nasty newspaper, by virtue of criticizing her, damaged her 'mental health.'
Regrading the mental health claim, Erickson wrote, More worrisome regarding her mental stability, Davis sued the newspaper months after losing her city council and claimed that she 'ha[d] suffered and [was] continuing to suffer damages to her mental health.'
The site The Real Wendy linked by Erickson says about the suit, TheTexas Tribune recently noted that Wendy Davis sued the Fort Worth Star-Telegram in 1997 for publishing an editorial critical of Davis negative campaign tactics.

Sandra Fluck and Wendy would make a great ticket for the DemoncRATs come 2016. Hitlery wouldn't like it though.
With free abortions and birth control pills these two could screw their way through Congress like nobody's business.

I am in agreement Abortion Barbie has some serious mental health issues. I don’t think she should be allowed to drive, be around children or pregnant women, and should not have access to sharp objects.

A sane person would not cath themselves just so they could spent 24 hours arguing for the right to kill more babies.

Wendy Davis says she would happily sign restrictions on the Second Amendment. Back in 2008, James Dark of the Texas State Rifle Association warned: She has a proven record of attempting to pass what we consider to be bad regulations. http://therealwendy.com/wendy-davis-anti-gun/?gclid=CK6nhd6I0boCFY0-Mgodc2QAqw Wendy Davis is not a hero. You cant defend her protection of Kermit Gosnell-like practices and killing babies who can feel pain, which is why you wont hear the truth about what SB5 would have really done. So before MSNBC offers Davis her own show, President Obama tweets out his support again, and Moveon.org sends any more fundraising emails for her next political campaign, perhaps they should consider who Davis truly protected: the Kermit Gosnells of Texas. Its up to us to get the word out use the hashtag #Stand4Life, especially starting at noon on Tuesday when we are having a Tweetfest. Help us make it trend and tell the media the truth. I this killer is made governor of Texas we had all better just move out of the state..
these are the babies this woman want to kill by making it legal to to tear them apart in the mothers stomach.. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/07/02/what-does-wendy-davis-really-stand-for-killing-babies-just-before-birth/

Wendy Davis suing for damage to her mental health sounds like exactly the sort of case Small Claims Court was made for.

Perhaps she should submit to a frontal lobotomy. She’s as stupid as Fluck.

Wendy must be just what we need... another sensitive ditz.
To: IbJensen
One thing you can say about her mother, Gov. Ann "Ma" Richards, she knew how to hide her progressiveness long enough to get elected.
Obviously, daughter Wendy didn't get that gene. Which is good for us. She thinks executing babies in the womb is a winning issue.
Whatever, she still deserves righteous scrutiny.
