Say what, now? Care to run that one by me again?
Emma,
Part of John (the younger)'s Two Americas Speech had a hypothetical potrait of a young girl without a winter-coat whose parents had to choose between food and clothing. It's a lawyer's fantasy world, where a hand-me down coat isn't available at Goodwill, or where stacks of warm sweaters for under 10 dollars at WalMart don't exist. And whose fault is it that we have Two Americas? Big Bad Republicans, of course.
One has to wonder how many employees suffered at the various companies that Edwards bilked out of millions upon millions as an ambulance-chaser. Or maybe he didn't think those judgements against the corporations he sued would effect their bottom line. After all, in his America, it's all about the noble worker vs. the evil elite. And the lawyer who makes 29 million over four years while a poor girl goes without a wintercoat.
From a previous Steyn piece.... part of Edwards stump speech concerned a 10-year-old girl, somewhere in America, praying it would be warmer tomorrow as she had no warm coat to wear. According to Steyn, you would have to have a heart of stone for that not to brings tears of laughter to your eyes!
