Roger Clegg on pending employment litigation legislation in Congress. I commented on the Lilly Ledbetter bill for NPR’s “Talking Justice” blog.

Wow, just wow. What is the legislative bent going to be if we get Hillary or Obama in the White House? Open season on “fairness” litigation?
If we do, pray for our country, ’cause we’re gonna need all the help we can get to tide the flood!

Do members of congress have to obey these laws, and every bizarre threat from the EEOC, in selecting and hiring their own staff? If not, why. Please discuss your answer. Extra points will be awarded for contrasting publicized political aide scandals with the litigation results of similar activities.
Again proof why lawyers should not be allowed to make law!
The only possible beneficiary to these bills are attorney’s pocket books!
