By the way, did you know that Thompson backed the the Trail Lawyers/Tort lobby right down the line to defeat Tort Reform on every effort during his time in the Senate.

By the way, did you know those bills were to address STATE tort laws and Fred doesn't think the FEDERAL government has any business involving themselves in STATE matters?

We all know you don't like Fred, but your continued BS is tiresome.

I don’t think it is possible for individual states to address this issue. You will always be able to sue a company in a state that did not pass torte reform. In fact, the states without torte reforms will be able to generate extra income from these lawsuits making it beneficial for them not to pass torte reform and undermining reforms in the states that did pass them.
