Think about lawyers.  Think about your feelings toward lawyers in general.  Think about the news articles you read about tort reform.  Think about nuisance lawsuits.  Think about ACLU lawyers trying to get a cross in the middle of the Mojave Desert torn down.  Think about lawyers arguing to put the rights of terrorists languishing in Guantanamo above the rights of the families of the 9/11 dead.

 

Now think about your representatives to Congress and the Senate.

 

Harry Reid - Lawyer

Richard Durbin - Lawyer

Charles Scuhmer - Lawyer

Hillary Clinton and her successor Kirsten Gillibrand - Lawyers

Christopher Dodd - Lawyer

Charles Rangel - Lawyer

Barney Frank - Lawyer

 

I don't think I need to go on - you get my point by now.

 

Why do we elect such people to govern us?  Why, in the name of G-D, do we do such stupid things?
