Two lawyers go in, one comes out. I like this form of litigation.

James: You mean the loser in Trial by Combat might just deny losing? Wow. Then we'd have another lawsuit and need to bring in more lawyers to figure out who lost! They become even stronger when you kill them.

TSB: Sat-15,000 in Seattle, Sun-20,000 in Portland, and today it's on to LA! I'm feelin the 'Bern'! But you would never know it from watching the corporate media. Today Hillary is unveiling her $350 billion plan for free college education for everyone which her corporate friends will love. (They probably wrote it for her.) gwb

TSB: Today Hillary unveiled her $350 billion plan and took 12 questions!! Half of them were about Trump. They should have asked her about Bernie's endorsement by National Nurses United... it's a union with 185,000 nationwide. The 'Presser' was held in a high school gym. gwb
