I'm just sayin'...

Periodic attempts at humor and other observations. Sometimes I might digress into political rants and health related discussions/commentary.

Lawyers. Why do these guys appear on the talking head shows? This morning I saw the attorney for Timothy McVeigh (OK city bomber) appear on NBC. He began his segment stating that he can't talk about much without implying too much... attorney/client privledge... blah blah. We all respect that. (Note: the topic regarded Timothy's postponing of his appeals, but this is not the point).

If the attorney is not able to say anything, then why even appear? Why make the effort? I do understand the marketing aspect for the attorney, but whey does NBC even bother? Slow news day? Probably. It is very frustrating to watch. The anchor people will ask probing questions (knowing they can't get an answer), but they ask it anyway. The attorney will in turn say, "I am not at liberty to discuss that...". DUH!!!! Jeez. How stupid!?!?!?!

That's it... I am watching Pok-E-Mon in the mornings from now on.
