The Dictatorship of Federal Prosecutors

Anyone who thought that the Obama administration was going to handle the Drug War differently is in for a rude awakening.  The Obama DO(In)J has decided to try to charge a person who is a public advocate in the government’s war against pain specialists with “obstruction of justice” and has been successful in seeking an injunction against her in order to silence her.

Jacob Sullum has the whole sorry story in detail here.  Apparently, free speech is a crime in the US of A, but we already knew that.
