A few weeks later the law school got a phone call from the Board of Trustees telling them to find him an office, put him on the payroll, and give him a class to teach. The Board told him he didn't have to be a member of the faculty, but they needed to give him a temporary position. He was never a professor and was hardly an adjunct.
BREAKING DEVELOPMENT--just as these disturbing facts come to light about Barack Obama, the White House is busy making deals with numerous 'journalists,' promising unprecedented access to the President in exchange for refraining from reporting certain information 'they may discover.'
I spent some time with the highest tenured faculty member at Chicago Law a few months back, and he did not have many nice things to say about "Barry." Obama applied for a position as an adjunct and wasn't even considered. A few weeks later the law school got a phone call from the Board of Trustees telling them to find him an office, put him on the payroll, and give him a class to teach. The Board told him he didn't have to be a member of the faculty, but they needed to give him a temporary position. He was never a professor and was hardly an adjunct.
The other professors hated him because he was lazy, unqualified, never attended any of the faculty meetings, and it was clear that the position was nothing more than a political stepping stool. According to my professor friend, he had the lowest intellectual capacity in the building. He also doubted whether he was legitimately an editor on the Harvard Law Review, because if he was, he would be the first and only editor of an Ivy League law review to never be published while in school (publication is or was a requirement).

Now it looks like a HUGE part of his background has been fabricated as well!
Investigation Reveals Bogus Claims On Obama Resume
UC Law School statement: The Law School has received many media requests about Barack Obama, especially about his status as "Senior Lecturer." From 1992 until his election to the U.S. Senate in 2004, Barack Obama served as a professor in the Law School. He was a Lecturer from 1992 to 1996. He was a Senior Lecturer from 1996 to 2004, during which time he taught three courses per year. Senior Lecturers are considered to be members of the Law School faculty and are regarded as professors, although not full-time or tenure-track. The title of Senior Lecturer is distinct from the title of Lecturer, which signifies adjunct status. Like Obama, each of the Law School's Senior Lecturers have high-demand careers in politics or public service, which prevent full-time teaching. Several times during his 12 years as a professor in the Law School, Obama was invited to join the faculty in a full-time tenure-track position, but he declined.
This is some pretty serious stuff,
No wonder he has spent nearly $2Million dollars to seal any and every imaginable record.

And an anonymous complaint?
Gee, complaints, like frivolous lawsuits, can be filed all the time.
And like frivolous lawsuits, they can be dismissed.
Looks like righties are desperate!
Just can't believe Obama cleaned their clock in the election.
Hilarious!

Let's just get something straight - right away. This thread is not about Reagan, Bush, Clinton, Kennedy, James Madison, George Washington, Abraham Lincoln or ANY other President. This thread is about Brack Hussein Obama,
Secondly, there is no propaganda.
He is a liar.
Close Gitmo?
End the wars?

Well, since my source is questionable to the Obama admirers - here, let's try this one! It seemed to be the bee's knees when it was used by people bashing Bush!
As originally written this item stated flatly that the law school "confirms that Obama was a professor."
Contrary to what the Clinton campaign claimed, not all professors have tenure. For instance, academics with the title of "assistant professor" typically work for between five and seven years before being reviewed for tenure. Furthermore, Obama was not merely an "instructor" as Phil Singer stated.
As a "senior lecturer," Obama was in good company: The six other faculty members with the title include the associate dean of the law school and Judge Richard Posner, who is widely considered to be one of the nation's top legal theorists.

Obama thus far kept 105 of his promises, compromised on 35 promises and broke 16:

So thats the first piece of disinformation out of your mouth right there. As for him breaking promises? The one thing Iv learned over the years is that no president ever keeps all of his promises. Scratch that, no politician ever keeps all of his or her promises and never has before. Reagan didnt keep all of his promises, Bush didnt neither did Clinton. Anybody who holds a president to that much scrutiny is naive at best.
Now it looks like a HUGE part of his background has been fabricated as well!

The examiner which is known to be a conservative biased website has sourced this information from a blog of all places:
theblogprof.blogspot.com...
And it references another blog that references the very same blog back:
volokh.com...
And now as typical as it is, this supposed 'evidence' dissappears into the rightwing echochamber. Now heres an actual statement from the University of Chicago Law school:

He was considered a professor there at the time. As for the Chicago Sun-times, its a tabloid newspaper that was owned by Newscorp. Its another propaganda piece.
This is some pretty serious stuff,
Anything about Obama is serious to you of all people Kozmo, really now.
No wonder he has spent nearly $2Million dollars to seal any and every imaginable record.
And thats another lie. People like you continue to make this claim with nothing to back it up. Where is the proof that his spending so much money? Why do you continue to make such claims with nothing to back them up? His not constitutionally obligated to release anything further especially considering the elections are over so why should he have to spend anything? Just because he refuses to respond to the demands of disgruntled voters doesnt mean his hiding anything or spending any amount.
