If Clinton gets in I predict Sandy Burglar will be placed in charge of the National Archives. They have a lot of shredding to do.

One of my crazy uncle’s is also a trial lawyer.

Yeah, but, is he prone to hate speech, like saying “GodDamn America”?!?

If not, I wouldn’t woryy, not ALL trial lawyers are bad. They’re just… well, kinda… slippery.

While the senior partners at MW have committed crimes and will pay a price for that corruption, many of MW’s cases did pivot on the fact that many officers in major corporations systematically screwed their minority shareholders.

The firm itself has also been indicted.

I have to admit I never understood how a company (or law firm in this case) could commit a crime……much like I don’t think guns kill people, people kill people.

The Democrats are trying to lock in the attorney cash-stream by opening up telecom exposure over FISA.

Democrats Clinton, Obama, Pelosi and Reid are mere errand boys and girls for the trial lawyers of America.

Even their precious unions are suborned to the desires of the thieving, bloodsucking parasites who make up the trial lawyer lobby.

Anyone who thinks Americans can sue ourselves into prosperity, by all means, vote for Democrats this fall.

This won't make the headlines unless/until a ~~Republican~~ Conservative is tied in to the scheme.

This story is a prime example of why Democrats refuse to sign the FISA bill that includes protection for the phone companies. Democrats are beholden to scumbag lawyers; they refuse to remove a huge plate of meat from this bill so that trial lawyers can have their next feast at our expense.

I am not a fan of ambulance chasing lawyers, nor am I prone to say all lawyers are evil corrupt leaches that suck on the life blood of our country…..I think enough has been written about the Silky Pony.

So then what’s your point? You just described a normal business day in DC. Pointing out a crook in Washington is like shooting fish in a barrel. The challenge would be to find a politician who is NOT on the take.

Great post Ed. Thanks.

This just reinforces the perception that the democraps are corrupt money grabbers.
