When Will We Have Had Enough?



▐ Please take the time to watch the following on-line video, entitled "When Will We Have Had Enough?" This short little gem from Billy Vegas is the single most brilliant I have seen lately in the arena of political commentary. It derives much of its punch from outtakes of a TV program's actor/lawyer's writer-scripted closing argument to an actor/jury (Boston Legal, the only TV program about lawyers since Perry Mason that I have been able to stomach). How odd that I, a "recovering lawyer," must look to a fictional lawyer to find something admirable related to the legal field. Trust me, you never will hear anything like this in a real courtroom. -- Edgar J. Steel
