Life in the Big City--lawyers?

[Jon Ford]

It's always helpful to have a few lawyers around, especially as friends to 
give you free legal advice.  I knew a lot more lawyers in Berkeley and San 
Francisco  than I do down here in Palo Alto.  The bias against lawyers in 
this country is largely  a right-wing Republican thing: Republicans usually 
favor the "rule of the law" as long as it gives them a leg up-- Unlike DA's, 
pesky defense attorneys often serve the left, or at least the "commoners." 
John Edwards is one of those attorneys-- expect to hear a lot about how 
decadent lawyers are in Bush's upcoming  anti- Kerry-ticket ads!
