It is in(most)our nature to be more emotional than men, so I think sometimes women politicians should be a bit less catty and more....I dunno, butch? Lmao....

[rrabbit6926]

We'll we don't need Palin or Hilary running our country down the tubes. Trying to think of some butch politicians and none come to mind.

Reagan is revered for his fidelity to these principles.......

Does that include the Seventh Amendment Right to Trial by Jury? If so I'm sure that you're opposed to tort reform?

[pjorourke]

Wasn't the focus of the Seventh on criminal matters. I doubt the Founders had any concept of modern ambulance chasing.

I haven't thought much about tort reform so I don't have formulated opinions....A thought which I haven't explored and which makes sense on a superficial level is expert juries for certain types of cases.....

what's a pinko-lib ambulance-chaser like you doing in TX? This board is gonna make me lose my respect for TX......[Edit: I answered my own question......illegal alien Plaintiffs!]

Nope. The Seventh Amendment applies to both and has since the beginning. The jury in civil cases was a check on the power of the King and the magnates of the day, just as it is a check on the power of corporations today.

Nope, not where I am. I haven't represented an undocumented worker in probably seven or eight years. Maybe ten, although I've sued five or six. We're in a part of the State that has some undocumented workers, but very few. Much more in common with the populist portions of the American South with a significant African American population thrown in. One of the best jury environments in the country, actually.

But, technically at least, some are lying bitches. It amazes me how vehemently some political junkies defend their politicians as being something more than simply the lessor of evils at that time, and by their measure of evil.

It still manages to raise my eyebrows as well...even though I know there's nothing new about that, either....
