you missed a "Related Story"

remember this bit?

allow me to re-quote:

"When FBI supervisors in Miami met with new interim U.S. Attorney Alex Acosta last month, they wondered what the top enforcement priority for Acosta and Attorney General Alberto Gonzales would be. Would it be terrorism? Organized crime? Narcotics trafficking? Immigration? Or maybe public corruption? The agents were stunned to learn that a top prosecutorial priority of Acosta and the Department of Justice was none of the above. Instead, Acosta told them, it's obscenity. Not pornography involving children, but pornographic material featuring consenting adults."

I am far from a fan of GGW, and the guy who runs it sounds like your classic douchebag, but I think his treatment has far less to do with his attitude and approach in the courts than it does with his underlying challenge to the moral code embraced by the right.
