    What most of you don't know and never bothered to read about is that MacDonald's had been warned their coffee was too hot.
    And IIRC, the judge reduced the settlement and I think even sealed from public review. Reports of "ambulance chasing lawyers" are usually exaggerated to the point that it's ridiculous. Generally an attorney won't take a case like that unless they're sure to win, and find a pocket with a lot of money in it. If either isn't true, good luck finding representation. And in my state, it's illegal to take a case where you're paid only if you win.

    Regarding WIC, that's probably the most perfect example possible of a good government program, one that perhaps best describes the proper role and function of government.

    I LOVE when big businesses are sued by the best attorneys available.I also love when big businesses get their asses kicked in court.In this age of deregulations,often thats the only way to get results.Maybe if 'proper regulations were "brought back" that would be a different story.

    Where does Obama stand on FISA the act that would grant retroactive immunity to telecom corps: He's for it.

    What exactly are those safeguards, have they been outlined, who will oversee them?

    And for marketing reasons they've pushed the vote back They think we'll forget about it over summer.

    But no, no. Americans need to know the religious views of Barock-out Obama. A high percentage of them according to polls believe that he is a Muslim.
