DOJ admits Aaron Swartz prosecution was political

DOJ admits Aaron Swartz prosecution was political. Another unicorn vanishes: “This is making me angrier than almost anything I’ve heard since Aaron died. I finally figured out why: Because I worked my ass off to elect the Obama administration in 2008. I helped these people get in power. And then they drove the man I loved to suicide because they didn’t like something he said once.”

  • People are just tools to be used and tossed aside by the Chicago Crackhead. As long as you are a lapdog like PMSNBC, and the other media, or a foolish liberal who wants to ride Obama's leg and do as your told you'll be fine, if you step outside the boundaries, The Chicago Crackhead will dump you like a leper. No deviation from the program is allowed by the DNC.

  • It's asham that this man committed sucide. But he was just another useful idiot to use, abuse and throw away.
