The Lawyer's Party THIS IS BRILLIANT !!!

>*This is very interesting! I never thought about it this way.
>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 Ed wards was 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 Frist 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 Frist, 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.
>*

>Against whom do Hillary and Obama rail? Pharmaceutical companies, oil
>companies, hospitals, manufacturers, fast food restaurant chains, large
>retail businesses, bankers, and anyone producing anything of value in our
>nation.
>
>This is the natural consequence of viewing everything through the eyes of
>lawyers.

>Lawyers solve problems by successfully representing their clients, in this
>case the American people. Lawyers seek to have new laws passed, they seek
>to win lawsuits, they press appellate courts to overturn precedent, and
>lawyers always parse language to favor their side. Confined to the narrow
>practice of law, that is fine. But it is an awful way to govern a great
>nation.
>*
>*
>When politicians as lawyers begin to view some Americans as clients and
>other Americans as opposing parties, then the role of the legal system in
>our life becomes all-consuming.
>Some Americans become adverse parties of our very government. We are not
>all litigants in some vast social class-action suit.
>*
>*
>We are citizens of a republic that promises us a great deal of freedom from
>laws, from courts, and from lawyers.
>
>Today, we are drowning in laws; we are contorted by judicial decisions; we
>are driven to distraction by omnipresent lawyers in all parts of our once
>private lives. America has a place for laws and lawyers, but that place is
>modest and reasonable, not vast and unchecked. When the most important
>decision for our next president is whom he will appoint to the Supreme
>Court, the role of lawyers and the law in America is too big.
>**
>**When House Democrats sue America in order to hamstring our efforts to
>learn what our enemies are planning to do to us, then the role of
>litigation in America has become crushing.
>
>We cannot expect the Lawyers Party to provide real change, real reform or
>real hope in America . Most Americans know that a republic in which every
>major government action must be blessed by nine unelected judges is not
>what Washington intended in 1789. Most Americans grasp that we cannot fight
>a war when ACLU lawsuits snap at the heels of our defenders. Most Americans
>intuit that more lawyers and judges will not restore declining moral values
>or spark the spirit of enterprise in our economy.
>
>Perhaps Americans will understand that change cannot be brought to our
>nation by those lawyers who already largely dictate American society and
>business.
>*
>*
>Perhaps Americans will see that hope does not come from the mouths of
>lawyers but from personal dreams nourished by hard work. Perhaps Americans
>will embrace the truth that more lawyers with more power will only make our
>problems worse.
>
>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
