O RLY? It took me a good number of years reading cases before I became cynical.
Maybe I'm just an oddball, though. I started out as a starry-eyed idealist about the rule of law, and that can't be too common now, can it?
Perhaps times have changed... Nowadays it's pretty easy to get cynical about the law.

Posted by: lawyers at February 3, 2010 07:11 PMCall me cynical, but it appears Senator Kennedy’s support for the rule of law, is driven by his own calculations of political expediency and partisan advantage.

I think a lot of lawyers do good things as well. Even very successful lawyers do pro bono work to help people who cannot afford legal representation for example.
