Contracts and business dealings.

If there isn't disease, how do doctors make money?

Broken bones and other injuries.

Ah Gawker, the cesspool of mainstream online jarnalizm.

Do I know rhetorical means?

Screw Hulk Hogan, his talentless daughter, and his murdering son.

The biggest thing going on in the world right now is that someone killed a lion. Yay?

Yep. The money there is way better. (It is possible to make a lot of money in criminal defense, but most criminals are broke.)

Mob lawyer, dude. If you wanna go for criminal defense, make sure you get the most powerful criminals.

Organized crime in the U.S. has fallen off a lot in the last 60 years - thanks FBI! - and I am not sure being a mob lawyer would pay that well nowadays. (If you insistupon going that route, it would be much better if multiple celebritities, professional athletes, and other high net worth individuals kept you on retainer for all of their criminal- and family-law needs.)

Actually the FBI just consolidated their Mafia investigative teams from one team per family to two teams overall and gutted their man power down to 36 men total. One team for the Gambino and Lucchese families, while the other investigates the Genovese, Bonanno, and Colombo families. If they want to start making a comeback, now's the time.

In other news, watch a neo-con jerkface lie through his teeth on RT of all places!

Those creatures still exist and they're as blatantly scum as ever

I'm longing for an honest, unhypocritical politician who isn't an extremist. From the Orient with Aung San Suu Kyi to the West with Barack Obama they've all proven big disappointments if not much worse.

I don't think you're going to score many points by treating ideological opposition as subhuman.

I'm also curious as to which statement he made is the lie you refer to.
