What would Jefferson think of the absolute death of common sense over the suit involving McDonald's coffee and the abject stupidity of an old woman?

Hopefully Jefferson would have known better than to take get all their information from late night comedians. McDonald's was lucky the woman spilled her coffee. Otherwise they could have ended up paying the bill for her internal injuries. The coffee was dangerously hot, far hotter than any reasonable person would expect. That's why they got sued, that's why they lost.

How ironic you should bring up comedians.

Coffee has been served hot for decade after decade. And all of a sudden some scumbag ambulance chaser introduces such insanity as the McDonald's suit into the courts.

Please, remind me why I should have sympathy for that old fool, much less the lawyers and the judge who allowed such fantastic nonsense to begin with.
