Its hard to believe some judge just sent them home with a hand slap...

Incorrect on a few levels. The judge was asking for sanctions for their obvious contempt of court (refusing to dignify the proceedings with their presence), and the Obama administration ordered that the case be withdrawn after they had already been awarded a default judgement in their favor. The "hand slap" was an injunction against one of these guys breaking that particular law at that particular place again before 2015. I thought the law was kind of like an injunction against all of us that we must all obey at all times and places, but it looks like people who are above showing up to court also get special laws written for them.
BTW, the guy who was prohibited from breaking that law again in Philly actually lives in DC. So at least we know where he WON'T be next election: Philly is the one place where he has to obey the law, so he won't be there.
