Charges dropped against pro-life reporters behind Planned Parenthood videos

From Rick Moran at the The American Thinker Blog:

Charges against David Daleiden and Sandra Merritt, the two reporters whose undercover videos of Planned Parenthood employees selling fetal body parts shocked the nation, have been dropped in Texas.

Harris County prosecutors had accused the journalists of tampering with a government record - using a fake ID to gain entrance to a Planned Parenthood office. Harris County, which includes the most liberal city in Texas - Austin - has been the scene of several high profile, politically motivated prosecutions in recent years, including the accusations against former Congressman Tom DeLay. Those corruption charges were later dismissed.

This is only the most recent example of liberals attacking their political opponents using novel, or trumped up interpretations of the law to intimidate and destroy. The campaign against Exxon for disagreeing with the liberal notion of climate change is another. There was a campaign in Wisconsin to silence and intimidate conservative activists for backing Governor Walker in his bid to defeat a recall vote.

The list goes on and on. Their actions stem from a basic disrespect for the law and what it stands for. When the law becomes a tool of oppression, rather than a means to establish fairness and justice, liberty is endangered and a well ordered society is threatened.

The latest attempt at liberal lawfare collapses.
