Obama’s Choice for Deputy AG David W. Ogden

Ogden has fought against “reasonable restrictions to protect children from pornography – especially in libraries and other venues in which pornographers attempt to distribute their materials,” Burch added.

-- He opposed the Children’s Internet Protection Act of 2000 in court (in United States v. American Library Association).

-- He challenged the Child Protection and Obscenity Enforcement Act of 1988, and a companion law adopted in 1990 – the Child Protection Restoration and Penalties Enhancement Act. Ogden argued that requiring porn producers to personally verify that their models were over age 18 would “burden too heavily and infringe too deeply on the right to produce First Amendment-protected material.”

-- Ogden even sued the federal government in an attempt to publish Braille versions of Playboy magazine – at taxpayer expense.
