Such the life of the lawyer...

Always able to argue both sides of an issue at the drop of a hat.

An article about a huge fine imposed on Pfizer for illegal promotional tactics. Here's the part which made me chuckle:

"In an unusual twist, the head of the Justice Department, Attorney General Eric Holder, did not participate in the record settlement, because he had represented Pfizer on these issues while in private practice."

LOL
