DON'T BELIEVE THE HYPERBOLE
OK. This blog is dedicated to countering the fallacy that there are 600 ideologically varied options for lawyers to satisfy their "Elimination of Bias" continuing education. Here is one blogger who bought into the deception by the CLE Board. Ethical Esq. assumes that since censoring the viewpoint of courses that are accredited would be clearly unconstitutional, the CLE Board must not be engaging in such behavior. A subsequent post confuses the issue by asserting that lawyers either ought to (1) have the courage of their convictions to be open about their political beliefs (I agree), or (2) even seek to broaden their horizons by listening to political adversaries (I also agree). These assertions do not address the constitutional issue of whether lawyers should be required to do either of these two things.
