For those wondering how in the world Barry could do all he did...do some Google searches on the Pritzker family of Chicago...especially Penny Pritzker...NOBODY know of this fraud until they brought him along.
Quote from fhl:
A complaint was filed with the Illinois Attorney Registration and Disciplinary Commission on July 23, 2008 asking that Obama be investigated for
"a) making a statement of material fact in
connection with a bar application that the applicant knows to be
false;
b) committing a criminal act that reflects adversely on the
lawyerâs fitness to practice law;
c) engaging in conduct involving
dishonesty, fraud, deceit or misrepresentation;
d) engaging in conduct prejudicial to the administration of justice; and e) engaging in conduct which brings the courts or the legal profession into disrepute.â
