First you say he was disbarred. Then you say he would have been disbarred if he hadn't given up his license voluntarily. Having problems keeping things straight?

I made the mistake of using the meaning in context of the person to whom I was responding. I knew what he meant, even though it was technically incorrect.

Unlike some, I don't try to be an @$$hole when people make minor mistakes in word usage.

Barack Obama was not disbarred, but he would have clearly been disbarred had he not voluntarily relinquished his law license. Michele was not technically disbarred, because they offered her the same sort of deal; "Give it up or we will take it from you."

These deals are the consequence of the Illinois Lawyer cartel protecting their own reputation.

One of the things that makes tedious people tedious is their insistence on pouncing on trifles.

Not on every post, no.

You do so love your conspiracy theories, don't you?
