    Okay, the Senator’s name is Batsen D. Belfry, the lawyer’s name escapes me.

    The dog’s reason was a lot better than the lawyer’s.

    Reminds of the ads where they say “Have you been in an…..”, or “Were you exposed to…….”.

    then call 1-800-AMBULANCE CHASER.

    To everyone who beats up on lawyers, I have two wishes:

    That someday you need a lawyer. That you get one who is as corrupt and incompetent as you seem to think all lawyers are.

    WaitingMan, it’s true: Everyone hates lawyers until they need one.

    …but they DO make for some really funny jokes! :)

    I was going down the highway and saw a billboard for the law firm of Crook & Swindell. It’s the truth too! I think their office is in Raleigh.

    Get rid of all lawyers then there will never be a need for one. Because lawyers turn into politicians who pass laws that perpetuate the need to hire a lawyer in the first place. P.S. all lawyer jokes are true especially the ones concerning pond scum!

    I think by now everyone knows the 4 reasons research labs stopped using rats for experiments?

    WaitingMan - I know that it is the villains that say “First we kill all of the lawyers” in Shakespeare’s Henry VI, part 2, but I do have a real complaint about our current system and attorneys.

    I find it a bad thing for our political system to be so dominated by the legal profession. If you take the top tiers of State and Federal governance in all 3 branches I believe that you will find law school attendees in the 70-90 percentiles. The temptation to believe that this leads to servants becoming the masters as in Swift’s “Flappers” is overwhelming.

    I forget the first name but there is a lawyer in Easton, PA by the name of Duh!!! Office is right on US22. If it isn’t Easton, then it is the Jersey town just over the line.

    always remember: your judges are all lawyers. your supremes are all judges. nearly all congress is lawyers. the president is a lawyer. all hail the 3 Seperate branches of the US government, all members of one union, too: the ABA. heh. now, doesn/t that make it easier to poke fun at ´em?

    Until lawyers disavow those of their accomplices who give the ‘profession’ a bad name, I’ll continue to believe most layers ARE slimy pickpockets….worse than spammers, even.
