[End The Hypocrisy]

Hmmm... Well I've been told he was disbarred by the U.S. Supreme Court, but is eligible to re-apply by around 2008 (in time for Hillary to appoint him Supreme Ct. Justice, although one need not even be a lawyer to become that).

I believe that's true. But I don't think being disbarred by the Supreme Court prohibits a lawyer from practicing law. It simply means he cannot appear as a lawyer on a case before the Supreme Court.

I remember something about that incident that struck me as, "well, who cares then." Most attorneys never appear before the Supreme Court, so most aren't qualified to do so. They still practice law, but wouldn't be able to try a case beyond the jurisdiction of their state courts.
