- I sometimes fear that people might think that fascism arrives in fancy dress worn by grotesques and monsters as played out in endless re-runs of the Nazis. Fascism arrives as your friend.

  ATTORNEY: You forget? Can you give us an example of something you forgot?
  ___________________________________________
  ATTORNEY: Now doctor, isn’t it true that when a person dies in his sleep, he doesn’t know about it until the next morning?
  WITNESS: Did you actually pass the bar exam?
  ____________________________________
  
  ATTORNEY: The youngest son, the 20-year-old, how old is he?
  WITNESS: He’s 20, much like your IQ.
  ___________________________________________
  ATTORNEY: Were you present when your picture was taken?

  WITNESS: No, this is how I dress when I go to work.
  ______________________________________
  ATTORNEY: Doctor , how many of your autopsies have you performed on dead people?

  _________________________________________
  ATTORNEY: ALL your responses MUST be oral, OK? What school did you go to?
  WITNESS: Oral…
  _________________________________________
  ATTORNEY: Do you recall the time that you examined the body?

  WITNESS: If not, he was by the time I finished.

  WITNESS: No.
  ATTORNEY: Did you check for blood pressure?
  WITNESS: No.
  ATTORNEY: Did you check for breathing?
  WITNESS: No..
  ATTORNEY: So, then it is possible that the patient was alive when you began the autopsy?
  WITNESS: No.
  ATTORNEY: How can you be so sure, Doctor?
  WITNESS: Because his brain was sitting on my desk in a jar.
  ATTORNEY: I see, but could the patient have still been alive, nevertheless?
  WITNESS: Yes, it is possible that he could have been alive and practicing law.
