Nonetheless parsy, high-powered McDonald attorneys had to jump through hoops and cut side deals in order to purportedly extricate their client from this massive fraud...

Quite frankly the die has been cast my friend and for good reason -- greedy hyper-litigious lawyers are solely responsible for sky-rocketed insurance costs while at the same time having scamming their "fair share" of billions in the name of "liability" at every turn...

And did I mention how they've managed to subvert the law (read ACLU)and the Constitution?

I read the link about the McDonald's hot coffee case. I didn't learn anything I had not already heard about. I still disagree with the case. This is the part that still makes me think she should not have gotten the money.

Liebeck placed the cup between her knees

I think a grown woman should know better than to place a cup of coffee between her knees. Coffee is expected to be hot. She knew that. I am sure that in her lifetime she has made coffee using water as hot or hotter than that in her cup. Arguing about the degree of hotness is not the point. If she had used common sense, she would not have been injured. I think her foolish action was the cause of her injury.
