1. well that would mean

a vast reduction of very funny jokes.

[rec_report]

4. LOL!! Lots of humorous comments in the General Discussion today!

We need the levity to survive the Bush dictatorship!

[Blue_Tires]

23. lol

Poles, Rabbis, Bartenders, Ducks and the rest all moved up one notch on the list

2. A belated welcome to DU rec_report

That's a good point but once again bush and his gang of thugs screwed up. They didn't kill all the lawyers and now they are alive and well to haunt them. Similarly if the troops had just died on the battlefield instead of coming back to Walter Reed, that clusterfuck from the bush administration wouldn't have reared its ugly head. Not one "conservative" would have cared if they all died.

9. Thank you, Bosshog! BTW, here is a link to Monday's Rec Report

If you missed it:

The Halliburton (Profit) Surge, the US and Iraqi Dirge --The Rec Report --By Michael Rectenwald 12 Mar 2007 Cheney still has the audacity to stand before a powerful "American" lobby and tell us that his war profiteers need more money! ...It takes a stock surge to make a believer in the military surge.

What's wrong with this picture? Not enough cement.

[northzax]

a lawyer and a carp?

One is a scum sucking bottom dweller,

The other is a fish.

[rec_report]

Skid marks in front of the cat (where the driver attempted to stop).

of lawyers, such as Gonzales, etc.

[plcdude]

12. Yes welcome to DU

and I check out your site good stuff. Where have you been? We need you here at DU.

[rec_report]

15. Thank you! I'm glad you like it and I enjoy posting here. :)

[gatorboy]

14. Well, not ALL the lawyers.

After all, they'll need a few for themselves in case they're brought up on criminal charges...

[rec_report]

16. Well, they lawyers who help the Guantanamo Bay prisoners, etc.

are doing a service for social justice, etc.
And, we definitely need criminal defense attorneys!

[Maven]

18. Oh, OK. I guess we should get rid of the ACLU then.

And Lambda Legal Defense.
And the Southern Poverty Law Center.

Abe Lincoln was a trial lawyer, so I suppose we shouldn't have elected him either.

[rec_report]

19. No, I'm a member of the ACLU! The webpage documents Bush's...

assault on the legal profession.

[Maven]

22. I gotcha.

I've often wondered why John Edwards didn't bring up Lincoln when he was attacked for his profession.

Maybe he did, and the media didn't cover it (because THAT'S never happened before).

Welcome to DU.

[rec_report]

24. Thank you, H. K.! :)

26. Well then I guess it's a good thing Clinton was disbarred

[Missy Vixen]

33. Actually, I believe he only lost his law license for five years

He's probably already applied for reinstatement.
