2. Thank you.

These people do not represent the entire legal profession.

9. I got out of the profession after 25 years. I misunderstood the

whole thing. I took other people's problems and made them my own. Unfortunately, most of the folks who succeed in what used to be a profession and is now a business know that the trick is to take other people's MONEY and make IT your own.

3. Half my family are Lawyers

and damn good ones at that...

Don't label an entire profession because of a few bad apples,

4. "First thing we do, let's kill all the lawyers." Spoken by a

Shakespeare character who was a follower of a criminal who wanted to overthrow the government. First thing they felt they should do is to kill all the laywers. The hostility the Bush cabal shows towards lawyers (except their own) always reminds me of that Shakespeare quote, and its context.

6. Obama, both Clintons, John Edwards, John Kerry, Eliot Spitzer, Abraham Lincoln

Bobby Kennedy etc. all lawyers.

11. The ACLU, which has been fighting Bush's attacks on our liberty,

...is based on its lawyers.
