Lawyers

We've all had or known lawyers.  Some are even friends or relatives but I can absolutely tell ya, any lawyer in politics or does a lot of PI (personal injury litigation) is as dangerous as a shark in a bloodlet'n.  This recently came to my attention and if it ain't the truth it's at least the "JAWS" in a lot we've come to know as lawyers in government:

The Lawyers' Party By Bruce Walker

The Democratic Party has become the Lawyers' Party .  Barack Obama is a lawyer.  Michelle Obama is a lawyer.  Hillary Clinton is a lawyer.  Bill Clinton is a lawyer.  John Edwards is a lawyer.  Elizabeth Edwards is a lawyer.  Every Democrat nominee since 1984 went to law school (although Gore did not graduate).
Every Democrat vice presidential nominee since 1976, except for Lloyd Bentsen, went to law school. Look at leaders of the Democrat Party in Congress: Harry Reid is a lawyer.  Nancy Pelosi is a lawyer.

The Republican Party is different.
President Bush is a businessman. Vice President Cheney is a businessman. The leaders of the Republican Revolution:
Newt Gingrich was a history professor.  Tom Delay was an exterminator.  Dick Armey was an economist.  House Minority Leader Boehner was a plastic manufacturer.  The former Senate Majority Leader Bill First is a heart surgeon.  Who was the last Republican president who was a lawyer?  Gerald Ford, who left office 31 years ago and who barely won the Republican nomination as a sitting president, running against Ronald Reagan in 1976.
The Republican Party is made up of real people doing real work, who are often the targets of lawyers.

The Democrat Party is made up of lawyers.  Democrats mock and scorn men who create wealth, like Bush and Cheney, or who heal the sick, like First, or who immerse themselves in history, like Gingrich.
The Lawyers' Party sees these sorts of people, who provide goods and services that people want, as the enemies of America . And, so we have seen the procession of official enemies, in the eyes of the Lawyers' Party, grow..
The United States has 5% of the world's population and 66% of the world's lawyers!  Tort (Legal) reform legislation has been introduced in congress several times in the last several years to limit punitive damages in ridiculous lawsuits such as "spilling hot coffee on yourself and suing the establishment that sold it to you" and also to limit punitive damages in huge medical malpractice lawsuits.  This legislation has continually been blocked from even being voted on by the Democrat Party.  When you see that 97% of the political contributions from the American Trial Lawyers Association goes to the Democrat Party, then you realize who is responsible for our medical and product costs being so high!

So, what's the message in all this? Pretty simple, don't ever elect a lawyer in government!
