However, I have made it a mission to fulfill my civic duties by voting at every possible election. I have read this blog and understand where each party is coming from. <BR/><BR/>As an educated person, I know that there are two things that make democracy work: the involvement of the people and the system of checks and balances created by the three branches: legislative, judiciary, and executive. So, I have applied that strategy to my voting by doing the following: I do vote by name <B>BUT</B> if I vote for an Hispanic/Latin person or other minority for one office, I'll vote for an Anglo/Caucasian in another complementary office. There are no guarantees there, but at least, I hope one will keep the other in line. <BR/><BR/>On a final note, It is so shallow and ignorant to think that there is anything in a name, to quote Entrepreuneur Magazine, by 2010 approximately, more than 70% of people under 18 in the United States will be of mixed race...try figuring someone's ethnicity by their last name then!<BR/><BR/>God bless all of you bloggers and have a great day.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19039943.post-1158326594917690202006-09-15T09:23:00.000-04:002006-09-15T09:23:00.000-04:00TO:"It would be STOOP to your level, not SKOOP.

Is justice truly for sale in the courtrooms of the United States? While that question could be argued for hours on end, there can be little cogent debate that America’s justice system is wrought with prejudice, corruption and avarice. Sometimes it seems that getting a fair shake in court these days depends a great deal on who’s representing you and what kind of strings your lawyer can pull. Who the lawyer knows seems to mean a lot more than what he or she knows anymore. The lawyer with the right connections always holds the upper hand over the lawyer who doesn’t. Always. From top to bottom and everywhere in between, the legal community is a tight nit conglomeration of cliques and inner circles. If your lawyer is not part of the “in” crowd - the good old boy network where glad handing and behind the scenes dealing rule the day - you may find yourself in a whole heap of trouble if and when you land in court. <BR/><BR/>Lawyers who are friendly with the judges in the courts in which they practice hold a huge ace in the hole. After all, when it’s all said and done, judges are the final arbiters in all lawsuits. Judges run the show and can generally dictate the path of any given case brought before their court. Judges have a lot more latitude than most people think when it comes to presiding over a case and a judge can make or break a case if he or she so chooses. Throughout the legal proceedings, from the pre-trial motions and hearings right through the trial testimony, judges make rulings on a number of issues that can directly influence the direction of any lawsuit and ultimately the outcome of the suit as well. Even in jury trials, judges can still exert an enormous amount of power on how the cases will be decided in the end. A crackerjack crook of a judge can swing a case in any direction he or she wants by selectively admitting or omitting evidence and testimony, randomly overruling or sustaining objections and indiscriminately ruling on assorted legal aspects of the case. While the lawyers may protest, the judge is the final decision maker. If anyone, be it the lawyers or their clientele, disagrees with the verdict or decision rendered, their only recourse is to take the case to an appeals court - an expensive and time consuming route which we will cover a little later in this chapter.<BR/><BR/>________________________<BR/><BR/>Again, I don't mine mispelled words or typo error. You see, I don't get classified as you! Lie the above I could find many more of what people actully think about people like you!<BR/><BR/>I rest my case. Put a little smile on your face and enjoy life a little more then trying to find typo errors! I guess you have nothing better to do in life then to try to prove to others your perfect!

Determining whether one needs to be a lawyer before one becomes a good liar or be a good liar before one is deemed a good lawyer (try saying that three times very quickly!) is sort of like choosing which comes first - the chicken or the rotten egg? When it comes to lawyers, the question is moot. Lawyers lie and they lie all of the time. That’s just the way it is. When it comes down to misleading, deceiving and baffling regular folks on a regular basis, lawyers are the absolute best in the business. They can turn fact into fiction and fiction into fact. Regardless of whether you’re talking about a little white lie or a major league whopper, lawyers simply have no peers. The oath their victims must swear to - telling the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth - doesn’t apply to them. No sir, they simply cannot allow the truth to mess things up or get in their way. Lying and lawyers, lawyers and lying, this dynamic duo just seems to go hand in hand. And like it or not, that spells double trouble for the rest of us.<BR/><BR/>But come on, can lawyers really be blamed for their appalling lack of honesty or integrity? Can they really help themselves? After all, just look at the company they keep. In a profession literally laced with some of the sleaziest con artists and shake down specialists the world has ever known (we’re talking about the lawyers, not their clients!), lying, cheating and swindling is the name of the game. The legal field is replete with shysters who have become virtual virtuosos in the fine art of deception and deceit. And as far as their profound propensity for obfuscating, prevaricating and equivocating at every turn, aren’t we being a little picky? When you get right down to the nitty-gritty, fabricating the facts, twisting the truth and finagling the figures are requisite tricks of their trade and no self-respecting lawyer would leave home without them. Whether we like it or not, lying has become an integral facet of our legal system. And lawyers, by and large, wouldn’t have it any other way.<BR/><BR/>_____________________________<BR/><BR/>Like I said before, I rather mispell and make typo error's, but at least I don't fall under the above category as people think about you!<BR/><BR/>Hey, even Rampole has mispelled and/or had typo error.

In addition, to post on a blog, who cares how professional you are, I rather view the typo and spelling error, then read from people who supposely have a professional title make the comments as they do on the blog! So much for professional ethical values you have shown those that visit the blog that may not have your title, but most likely have more value then what you have shown on your post! You see, just because you may have a title, does not make you any better then the rest! Most people without a title act more professional then those that come and put other's down that work in the same career as some of you do! If Rumpole ever post your real identity, you would most likely lose client's then gain them!
