None of them actually believe in what they fight for? Wrong and great assumption on your part.

Some are true believers. The overwhelming majority are just doing their job. They would gladly argue the other side of the issue if given better compensation.

So your favorite constitutional lawyer and hothead Ann Coulter would turn sides if she was paid more money?

No, she's an idiotic ideologue. However, if her right wing money spigot suddenly turned off, I'm confident she would modify her views to create a new cash flow.

Calling Ann Coulter a constitutional lawyer is like calling Mary Hart a journalist. Call me the next time Ann actually appears before the bench to argue a case.

Just because she's not actively arguing cases does not mean she's not a constitutional lawyer. What about Ted Olson?

What does that have to do with anything? Don't dodge the point.

There's no point out there. Ann Coulter is no more a lawyer than Shaquille O'Neal is an actor. If you don't realize that most lobbyists and attorneys are just working for whoever pays them, not making some impassioned statement of their own beliefs, I would welcome you to join the rest of us in the real world.

So you're telling me some far left feminist lawyer would line up to overturn Roe? What real world are you living in? The closest one is probably on MTV.

That's right. You have far more insight into the legal profession than I do.

Do you have a problem with understanding the definition of the word "most?"

Obviously since you think that would happen. Can you cite any examples of that happening? Any SCOTUS cases where the one arguing against abortion was actually pro-choice?

you've defined her as far left and feminist. she wouldn't. but the argument isn't about the few who believe, whom everyone has agreed exist. the argument simply states that most of those in the debate are in it to be paid (and well), not because they are impassioned about the debate at hand.

You're right. That would never happen. Just like the best prosecutor in the history of the LA County DA's office would never become a defense attorney and help free a man who killed his wife and a waiter.

Actually that's one person's argument. I've never said ALL. I've never said all in this so technically there shouldn't be an argument. Hat said that an overwhelming majority would argue the other side if the money was good. I'd like to know his percentage of overwhelming majority. I'd like to see some examples of those arguing abortion before SCOTUS and see who actually would switch sides.
