Do you really consider the work as a legislator in the last 11 years to be totally irrelevant?
[/quote]Considering that I have had a unique intimacy with the workings of state legislatures in my past, I am confident in rendering the judgment that the lower one delves into the strata of American politics, the more corrupt it becomes, simply because there is less visibility into the sausage making.
My years in Chicago were an education in corruption. There is no such thing as a “clean” Chicago politician. Bobama’s years in the Illinois house qualify him for the presidency if one desires a cash & carry executive ala Clintonian pardon selling, MIRV tech sales to China, coalfield sales to Indonesian patrons, etc, etc, etc.
I have a different view, based in the restraint one learns as a young military officer. Having the power to do something, doesn’t make it right. Lawyers, and petty politicians aren’t taught this sort of thing. This is but one of the maws in his education.

ParticipantIf that’s your idea of a rebuttal, I hope you’re not a lawyer. Allow me to tighten up your drivel:
Since one may find a republican on campus, then a university is not a steaming pile of liberalism.
You conveniently skip the Roseland/Rezko connection.
Being President of Harvard Law Review imputes something, I’m not sure what. It’s hardly a job. My view of HLS is nothing short of unimpressed.
He didn’t have any clients at the practice or try any cases because he was a stooge for more senior lawyers.
He went from visiting lecturer/fellow to being offered tenure at UofC all without publishing so much as an oped. I guess that whole publish or perish thing is history. He was by then of course a state senator. I’m shocked to see a Chicago politician offered a sinecure.
Now the State Senate years are a mystery, since there are no records, none, nada. All we really know is that he carried water for Rezko, and was present on a number of occasions.
He’s led the life of a privileged parasite. From prep school through two private universities, to the toniest law school in the land, he never flipped a burger. Since then, he’s never had to be accountable for a bottom line. That would make him unqualified for MOST grown up work.

ParticipantExcuse me? I thought he threw the race card as an opener? He is that tedious sort of soul willing to say anything to win.
Let’s review the bidding:
Bobama went off to Occidental, a hotbed of liberal shitheadery, in 1981. Seven years later, he shows up at Harvard to go to law school. In the interim, he claimed to be the Director of the Developing Communities Project (DCP), a church-based community organization originally comprising eight Catholic parishes in Greater Roseland on Chicago’s South Side. Anyone who knows Chicago, knows that Roseland is a sham community with no residents. It is the piece of dirt that surrounds the airport, and is completely owned and run by the mob. This was when he went to work for Tony Rezko.
At Harvard, he becomes the President of the Law Review without ever writing a single article. One suspects the soft racism of low expectations. It’s just as racist to choose someone for a job by the color of their skin as to deny one. Bobama stays off the record, collects his Magnum cum Loaded, and heads back to Chitown.
Two years later he parks his shingle at a law firm where he had no clients, and did no work. He also becomes a “Visiting Professor” of ConnLaw at UofC. One might wonder, would this not require advanced study of some sort, or at least publishing a book? Not if you’re a democrat. Is this a great country or what?
In 1996 he inherited his state senate seat, and became Rezko’s stooge in the statehouse. From then on, he’s been living off the fat of the electorate.
QED, he’s never had a job.
