I guess that has to do with this?

Right, it was a play on Phoenix Wright, the guy in your image.
Personally I would always recommend using subs instead of dubs. I can't
give much opinion on the GitS:SAC dubs as the only time I ever even
tried a GitS dub was from the original movie to hear a certain line from
Batou ("bigass weapon") and never tried again, but what I do can say is
the GitS voice acting, movies and series are on a flat-out SUPERB
quality level.
I recommend you try watching the episode again
subbed and then decide which one you like better. Especially Batou's and
Motoko's seiyu are extraordinarily good in their voice acting and can
convey emotional nuances very good (something that is especially
important in Motoko's case because being rather stoic is part of her
personality, making nuances very important in her characterization!).
The GitS dub for the show/SSS movie are amazing. As I said before, Richard Epcar and Aramaki's VA retained their roles from the original movie.
Seriously, Batou is now synonymous with Richard Epcar. He NAILED the role.

I'm still one of the heathens who prefer watching dubs over subs, I
prefer a casual watch without much focus on paying attention to the
subtitles. When I'm watching a subbed series, I'm forced to pay
attention to my second monitor while drinking tea.
This.
Save for SnK I watch dubs. For Shingeki no Kyojin, the subs are thankfully not that distracting.

I haven't watched enough anime to catch onto that 
Though
I've already caught Oghren/Grunt (I refuse to call him Steve Blum) in
two of them, hehe. But his role as the coolest motherf*cker in the
galaxy is well deserved.
You know who I'm talking about right?
Steve Blum does a lot of VA work, not just for video games. You'll notice a few familiar VAs in some anime.

I liked the GitS dub, VAs did a good job. Screw hulu and their ads,
though. I usually just try to find the most convenient, legal-sounding
option to view something, whether it's dub or sub.
First, I'm gonna call you Filachoma. Or Filchoma.
Second, I usually go to justdubz.tv to watch anime when I can. They tend to keep up to date.
Tha-
He's not a dude?
O.o
He is, but he's dressed up like a girl. As was said, the Pokemon episode got changed for American (maybe elsewhere) audiences because it would've rustled many peoples' jimmies.
Not the first time James has done stuff like that though. Or other people in the show. Remember when Ash dressed up as a girl to get his gym battle with Erika?
Also, on the topic of James, this is still magnificent.

"
I AM A FLAMING MOLTRES!"
And I get a distinct "I am the terror that flaps in the night" vibe from his mini-speech.
Holy ****, these last episodes of Ghost have been really intense, and that episode 25 ending....
Sh*t :-/

The characters were great and the little robot things were cute,
though I think they could have done a better job with their dubs, jesus
they were annoying at times with their voices.
After you finish up 2nd GiG, you should look for the GitS video game for the PS2 if you have one. It's not, IIRC, tied to the series as it has its own standalone story, but the VAs from the show reprise their roles.
Storyline wise, it's superb.
