Yet another thing to look forward to after the next election...

When Republicans controlled Congress from 1995 to 2006, and during most of President Bush's two terms, trial lawyers were demonized on Capitol Hill and forced back on their heels.

...and that's when the Republicans passed Tort Reform. Oh wait, they didn't. Nevermind.

One more “CHANGE!” we can all celebrate when B. Hussein becomes our Lord High Chancellor and God-Emperor.

Lawyers are taking America apart, brick by brick. They are doing it to the economy in ways described by this article. I once wrote that "lawyers are the sand in the gears of the economy."

Lawyers are also taking apart our Constitution, the same way, brick by brick. In each case, the lawyer's excuse is, "I was just representing my client...." But since Congress, like the state legislatures, is infested with lawyers, the likelihood they'll take definitive steps to deal with the situation is slim or none.

The one legislature with the least number of lawyers in it is Alaska. And Alaska is the one state, so I understand, which has adopted statewide the English Rule (loser pays) in lawsuits.

I have a right to criticize lawyers this harshly, because I have seen it from the inside. I have been a lawyer since December, 1970.
