“Kill All The Lawyers”??

Pakistan Attempts To Crush Protests By Lawyers:
ISLAMABAD, Pakistan, Nov. 5 — Angry protests by thousands of lawyers in Lahore and other cities on Monday demonstrated the first organized resistance to the emergency rule imposed by the Pakistani president, Gen. Pervez Musharraf. But the abrupt arrests of many of them threatened to weaken their challenge.”
Putting aside all the “dead lawyer” jokes, wouldn’t it have been nice if the lawyers and judges in THIS country had risen up against George W. Bush while he wiped his backside with our Constitution the past several years?
Just a thought.

Actually, Todd, if our laywers acted with the same commitment to principle as those in Pakistan, there wouldn’t really be any need for dead lawyer jokes.
P.S. Is it only me, or are there not any women when pictures of the protesting lawyers are shown? A little sex discrimination?
