Even Shakespeare hated lawyers.
Some are greedy, unprincipled scoundrels.
A lot of them are liberals.
There are some who persevere in the pursuit of justice until they just can't anymore, opting out, and, like Jennifer Lawrence, saying, "I want to get a farm. I want to be, like, milki...

"In democracies, we the people get the government we deserve. We also get the celebrities we deserve, the artists we deserve, and the athletes we deserve...In my view, the real controversy isn't about patriotism, social justice, racial inequality or free speech.

If you're confused, as well you might be, Jeff Sessions is the attorney general, and Mitch McConnell, Bob Corker, John McCain and a dozen or more recalcitrants, are Republicans.
Some of you might be muttering, and that's never a good thing, "Who the hell does Mitch McConnell think he is?" Who the he...

I bet Paul Manafort is wishing he never laid eyes on Donald Trump.
Up until then, the 68-year-old lobbyist was happy as a clam, buying nice stuff, cars, condos, parking his money in offshore accounts.
Then, before he knew it, the FBI was doing a pre-dawn search of his Alexandria, ...

It breaks your heart when your kid is left out, when he isn't invited to a birthday party, and all the other little kids are. But those are children, and they don't know any better.
