This is somewhat OT, but since anything that slams that notorious gun-hater Clinton is OK, I figured it was OK.

Face it, Mr. Clinton. You've hit rock bottom when even other lawyers don't want anything to do with you.
Those who occupy the so-called "legal profession," are scum of the earth. That's a given. Yet when it came time to consider whether or not Billy Clinton should keep his law license, a coven of lawyers in Arkansas said the President was so low down and dirty that even they didn't want him in their midst. So an panel of Arkansas shysters has recommended Billy boy be stripped of his right to practice law.
Consider the ramifications when a group of lawyers decide another lawyer is too sleazy to even be part of their ranks. It's like Madonna getting kicked out of the slut-of-the-month club or Jeffrey Dahmer getting bounced from the Hannibal Lecter Cannibals Convention.
Too sleazy to be a lawyer? Lord, that's low. Seems the shysters in Arkansas want to send Bill Clinton packing because he lied and was found in contempt of court.
We already know a lying lawyer is redundant, and when you add contemptible, it's just piling one redundancy on top of another.
Of course, not all lawyers feel Billy is too sleazy to remain in the club. There's always Alan Dershowitz, the Harvard law professor who never met a Clinton crime he couldn't rationalize or excuse.
Alan claims the disbarment is just another ploy of that nasty old vast right wing conspiracy and that Billy doesn't deserve to lose his law license. A slap on the wrist would be just fine, thank you very much.
What else would you expect from the man who got Klaus Von Bulow off the hook for offing his wife and also helped free O.J. Simpson for the slice and dice job on his ex and a male friend? Dershowitz would need a stepladder just to climb out of the primordial ooze that engulfs his flawed morality and questionable legal ethics.
Clinton of course, speaking though one of his many shysters, promises to fight the disbarment because, he claims, lying ain't that big a deal when you're a lawyer.
Maybe not. But when other lawyers consider you too low down and dirty to join them in the slime of their questionable profession, you've sunk about as low as anyone, even a lawyer, can get.
