Obama's lawyer days: Brief, and not all civil rights

[LadyVT]

(the title of an article in the LA Times, by Dan Morain, 4/6/08)

It again points out the way in which Obama "embellishes" (lies) about his past.

"In one of his television ads leading up to the South Carolina primary, Obama recalled 'working as a civil rights attorney to make sure that everybody's vote counted.' Senior attorneys at the small firm where he worked say he was a strong writer and researcher, but was involved in relatively few cases -- about 30 -- and spent only four years as a full-time lawyer before entering politics."

"The law firm says Obama logged 3,723 billable hours during his tenure from 1993 to 2004, most of it during the first four years." If you do the math, you'll see that in ONE 50-week year working only 40 hours a week (which is nothing for a young attorney), you'd log 2,000 hours. And this is over NINE YEARS.

"In some instances, Illinois state Sen. Obama took action that could have benefited some of his firm's clients. In 1998, for instance, he used state Senate stationery to urge that state and city officials provide tax subsidies to help a partnership consisting of Davis and Rezko develop low-income housing, the Chicago Sun-Times reported last year." WHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

"I can't fault him for the idea. But he is wearing two hats. He is a legislator, and he is serving as a private attorney whose client interests benefited here. This goes to the judgment issue."

1. Here again is the whoremedia not reporting on this and other

issues they have over-looked when it comes to obama. I believe the whoremedia is so afraid to take a deep look into obama and his past because of being labeled "racist". They, the whoremedia brought this upon themselves when they took sides in this campaign. Even in January when the obama campaign and some welling journalists from the whoremedia decided to accuse the clintons of playing the race card and race baiting when it fact it was the obama campaign and its surrogates that did this. Now the whoremedia has been played and cannot turn back because of being labeled "racist".

The whoremedia did this in 2000 and gave us george bush, and here again in 2008 because the public at large is gullible, again the whoremedia is doing their best to give us obama i e bush LIKE.

Probably why I don't see him on MSNBC anymore?

The comments are pretty good on his diary too.

He never gets invited to the shows anymore. Isn't that strange?:eyes:

3. Is there anything real and substantive, or is it all an illusion?
