Schneidermann is obviously looking to abuse process here, and the federal courts have ratified it.

wait…..

No I don’t. Any more that Schneiderman going after CU.

Next up on Schneiderman’s list: Secret ballot is eliminated in NY, so that all voters can have their choices scrutinized.

One need only look at what happened in California post-Prop where donors opposed to SSM were outed by those who favored it. people were harassed, businesses boycotted and people were fired, all because they were exercising their first amendment rights.

this decision will be used by the NYAG to harass people and businesses who support Citizens United. Where is the ACLU?
