The Las Vegas Review-Journal’s copyright infringement lawsuit partner on Friday sued U.S. Senate candidate Sharron Angle over R-J material posted on her website, allegedly without authorization.

The suit, filed in U.S. District Court in Las Vegas by Righthaven LLC, seeks damages of $150,000 against Angle personally and forfeiture of her website domain name sharronangle.com.

It is so stupid to nominate some one whom Reid will beat easily. Sue Lowden would have beat Reid easily

Angle would have been fine if she had kept her dingbat mouth shut. Too late now though. We just have to hope she shuts up the rest of the way, and we can dive Reid back below 50%.

I took a look around and as I recall...

FR thread title - "Las Vegas Review-Journal Sues Disabled Vet (Free Republic)" http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2556576/posts


-snip-

"According to the Las Vegas Sun, over 70 such lawsuits have been filed by Righthaven on behalf of the Las Vegas Review-Journal since the first of the year, many against small blogs or, like the Free Republic incident, against forums whose anonymous members have posted articles. "

-end snip-

They appear to be one and the same and suing FR too.

So, in your mind, we’d be better off, ultimately, with winners like Sue Lowden, Trey Greyson, John McCain, etc.?

Sure, they might beat these Democrat scumbags more easily, but down the road, we could end up with climate change legisl00tion, amnesty, etc. Damned if you do, damned if you don’t.

“Reid is ahead 50 to 47 in latest Rasmussen poll.”

Is Reid running Ads every hour on radio and TV like Juan did here in AZ?

Another question, under what law can you sue for a domain name?

Reid and Steven A. Gibson are both of the Nevada Development Authority, which Reid is on the Board of Trustees. NO, there's no connection... /s

From Gibsons law firm web site.

Mr. Gibson received his B.A. from the University of Louisville-Kentucky and his J.D. from ITT Chicago-Kent School of Law. He has been a member of the Nevada Development Authority and the Las Vegas Chamber of Commerce. He has published numerous articles and has spoken on trade secret, trademark and copyright issues across the country.

Sharron Angle should run one ad:

“Reid is not just your lousy senator, he’s obama’s hand maiden.”

Righthaven is working for the LVRJ and it’s headed by Steven A. Gibson, if my facts are correct. see my other post. I could be wrong, and if someone has better info, please correct.

Yeah, he’s THREE WHOLE POINTS ahead. A real cake walk, an easy win!

Seriously, that’s whack.

Way to declare defeat two months before the election. You sound just like a defeatist Mets fan.

Maybe we can’t have elections any more. An appallingly corrupt, biased and dishonest media. Massive fraud, involving large scale voting by illegals. The systematic disenfranchisement of Americans serving in the Armed Forces. But what will replace elections? How will the will of real Americans be expressed?

Yes, we would be better off with RINO's than democrat senators. Why? Because you have to understand how the senate works. If 51 senators have "R" behind their name, then every committee chair is Republican. It is they who can push or hold up legislation. I will take 51 republicans including Rino's anytime over 51 democrat senators.

No, I believe you’re thinking of RightHaven.

Basically one and the same. RightHaven was initially funded by the head of the LVRJ.

I just went to the Rasmussen website and they are listing the Angle/Reid race at 45/45. All I can figure with the garbage you are posting you must be from the RNC.
