lobbyist! i lurv our freedoms! criminals can work, never mind silly professional organizations with ethical rules that cause them to toss out members who make them look like crooks.

why practice law, when you can spend all day on the links or in fancy restaurants. you pay jr grade lawyers to do the boring, legal paperwork. that’s for schmoes.

real Village power “consults.”

Check this out:

U.S. immigration officials denied author Sebastian Horsley entrance to the United States on Wednesday on the grounds of “moral turpitude”, Horsley told Reuters on Thursday.

Tired from his return trip to London and eight hours of detention with U.S. customs officials, the 45-year-old artist and author of the lurid autobiography of drug addiction and sex “Dandy in the Underworld”, admitted that his flamboyant dress and top hat may have caught the attention of U.S. officials.

“I was wearing my dandy uniform, but the customs officials were wearing uniforms too and I didn’t object to them,” he said.

Horsley was stopped by immigration officials at New York’s Newark airport after flying in from London to promote his book, which the author calls a “moral book”.

“They said I was suffering from moral turpitude,” Horsley said. “I was very surprised. I’m feeling quite well. I’ve never drunk turpentine in my life.”

Is the government now run entirely by sufferers from recto-cranial inversion?

They are little and few but they’re still mine.

If this S of a B had happened to do what he’s done in Texas instead of DC, some enterprising citizen would’ve probably shot him (I’ve never seen a guy who looked like he needed killing more, except Cheney, and he’s already a cyborg) — and then maybe ’created’ an ’in flagrante delicto’ scene.

(Ahem. Remember that movie where Peter Strauss plays T. Cullen Davis, to icicles-on-the-back-of-your-neck perfection?
T. Cullen Davis could afford Richard “Racehorse” Haynes in real life — no shame in that, if I was going to do away with inconvenient ex-spouses I’d want a hell of a good lawyer too — and the denouement of that little episode took nearly 20 years to reach its curtain. The thing is, Cullen Davis today is about penniless. Karma happens.)
