Lynne Stewart, who closely resembles Michael Moore in a wig, was convicted of helping terrorist Omar Abdel Rahman, better known as the Blind Sheikh, further terrorism while she served as his attorney. Stewart had passed notes between Rahman and a terrorist group based in Egypt during his trial a few years back.

Well, she appealed her conviction to the federal appeals and lost. The court ordered her to report immediately to U.S. Marshals, at which point she would begin serving her 28-month sentence. The judges also ordered the sentencing judge to reconsider his pathetically light punishment for Stewart.

NEW YORK — A federal appeals court on Tuesday upheld the conviction of a disbarred civil rights lawyer convicted in a terrorism case, forcing her to surrender immediately and requiring a judge to consider whether her prison sentence of a little over two years was too lenient.

Lynne Stewart, 70, has been free on appeal since she was sentenced in 2006. The three-judge panel of the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals issued its nearly 200-page ruling almost two years after hearing arguments in the case.

The federal appeals court believes the sentence is too light, and the sentencing judge never considered whether Stewart perjured herself during her trial.

As Ed Morrissey says, Stewart should’ve quit while she was behind.
