Wendy Davis Sued Newspaper for Damaging Her Mental Health, Future Prospects
Breitbart ^ | 01 January 2014 | John Sexton

Posted on 01/20/2014 2:43:58 PM PST by Lorianne

The story of Davis' unusual lawsuit was recounted by the San Antonio Express News Monday. The blog Sara for America has highlights:

Davis said in her lawsuit that the newspaper ran “a series of contrived and false news stories and editorials…with malicious intent.”

The lawsuit said “defamatory and libelous” remarks were made to inflict emotional distress and to deny her rights to free speech, assembly and association.

It said that “Davis has suffered and is continuing to suffer damages to her mental health, her physical health, her right to pursue public offices in the past and in the future, and to her legal career.” She sought unspecified damages, including “significant exemplary damages.”

According to National Review's Andrew Stiles, "The suit...was quickly dismissed by a district-court judge, who sustained all of the defendants’ objections, largely on the grounds that Davis had failed to present legitimate evidence to support her libel claim." She appealed it all the way to the Texas Supreme Court, losing at every turn.

“She appealed it all the way to the Texas Supreme Court, losing at every turn.”

I wonder who was paying the lawyer bills all this time.

Little Wendy doesn’t take kindly to people who stand in her way. This could be quite entertaining.

Bless her heart. Such a sensitive soul to personal pain and distress for her career future. /s

Nevermind that she promotes pain and no future to the unborn.

This is one lost individual.

her right to pursue public offices in the past and in the future, and to her legal career.

Gees she is a time traveler? Going to run for an office in the past? Another wacko Lib! I guess she had imagined running for an office but knew until she got her lies in some order she would not be elected. Now that her nicely ordered lies have been exposed her dreams in the past are destroyed.

Libel is nearly impossible for a public figure to prove, especially one as intentionally controversial as this plastic bimbo.

She’s already effed herself grandly, as it appears to me.

“Davis has suffered and is continuing to suffer damages to her mental health..."

So, not only is she a congenital liar, she's now crazy too?

I guess that means she'll be throwing in the towel in the Texas gubernatorial race any day now, right?
