Judge Faces Death Threats After BP Gulf Oil Drilling Moratorium Ruling becaue he is rational

In issuing his ruling, Feldman said that the moratorium was faulty
because there was no "rational connection between the facts found and
the choice made." While there is often debate about the merits of
judicial decisions, seldom does the criticism focus on the integrity
of the judge. Right after he issued the ruling, Feldman came under
attack as a tool of the oil industry. Media outlets reporters noted
that the Judge held stock in oil and gas companies and implied that
his decision was based on his own personal financial considerations.
Such a personal attack is unfair and completely unwarranted,
especially for Feldman, a distinguished judge known for his commitment
to the law and a jurist who has earned the praise of people throughout
the legal community.
