RedState Red Alert: Stop Hamilton appointment

Erick Erickson at RedState has sent out a red alert about federal judge David Hamilton, urging everyone to make phone calls to try and stop this appointment. Erick writes:
I have written about David Hamilton before.

He is the federal judge who believes it is a violation of the first amendment for Christians to pray at school events, but is not a violation of the first amendment when Muslims pray at school events.

He is also the judge who was cited by the 6th Circuit Court of Appeals for abusing his power by keeping an injunction in place on an informed consent law despite the law clearly being constitutional.

Barack Obama has naturally appointed the man to the 6th Circuit Court of Appeals — the very court that said Hamilton had abused his power.

Call your Senator today and tell him to vote against cloture on David Hamilton’s nomination. ... Tell him to oppose cloture and oppose the nomination of David Hamilton.
