MICHELLE OBAMA ON "COURT ORDERED INACTIVE STATUS"

Atlas Shrugs ^ | 12/26/2008 | Free America

[Free America52]

First off, the biggest ass-kissing media refers to Michelle Obama as a 'distinguished attorney" despite the fact that Michelle Obama has been"inactive" since 1993.

Note to self-The astroturf word again!!! (Teaparties)

[hoosiermama]

The “K” is John Kupper, 51, a former congressional press secretary and ad-industry consultant.

---

Mar 14, 2008 ... Records show ASK was paid $1.2 million by Cablevision from 2004 to 2005. ... formerly known as SBC Communications

---

In 2008, Larry Grisolano joined Axelrod, Sedler, and Kupper

---

Entitled “The Secret Side of David Axelrod,” the story asserted that the firm was a master of “Astroturf” organizing — a practice the good government groups with which Obama worked closely in the Illinois state Legislature and U.S. Senate have lambasted as a way to skirt lobbying laws

---

According to Axelrod’s disclosure, ASK, which had never before published a comprehensive list of clients, also has represented power concerns Exelon, Commonwealth Edison Company, and Consumers Organized for Reliable Electricity, as well as AT&T, Bally Total Fitness Corporation and the Chicago Children’s Museum.

I was secretary to one of those programs for over 20 years. Some courses were okay, some were not. Kids took them to get a good mark without having to do a whole lot of work.

Interesting thread...bookmarking for tomorrow.

[Palladin]

Looks like these smart gals are getting to you!

ROFL!

[mojitojoe]

Well, well, well . . .

At the first hint of any negative Obama news, non-sequitur (logical fallacy) tries to come to the rescue again. Man your fingers must be down to the nubs by now.

Hope you and Palladin have our back!

LOL! I wonder how non-sequitur feels about Odumbo being compared to his (non-sequitur’s) object-worship Abe Lincoln? _____________ He's thrilled I'm sure since they are both his fantasy men.

[mojitojoe]

It is not unusual for women with children to do this and many do reactivate their licenses later. I fail to see why this is even an issue...are we gong to be like Dems and attack, attack... for nonsense? Give me a break.

Give it up troll, you’re a constant defender of the jive as poser in the WH and the fact that you showed up on this thread tells me there is a lot more to this than we know.

The Web site’s archived version, from 2004, identified some of them, which in addition to Household International and Wisconsin Energy included Exelon, the country’s largest operator of nuclear power plants, SBC Communications and the Chicago Teacher’s Union. The archived Web site said ASK devised campaigns to “drive the public discourse to areas of greatest advantage” for a broad range of major corporations “seeking to influence public policy.”

Mr. Axelrod began working with Mr. Obama in 2002. Beginning in 2005, the year Mr. Obama joined the Senate, ASK’s description of its work went through a series of revisions that continued into last summer. Client names were removed, and the characterization of ASK’s methods was softened. Among other things, a reference to Mr. Axelrod’s “winning campaigns for Fortune 100 companies” was stripped from his biography.

One company was Household International, the subprime lender, which is now a part of HSBC. Mr. Axelrod’s firm was hired to create television advertisements for Household in late 2002, after the company reached a $484 million settlement of accusations that it had gouged borrowers with costly loans and hidden fees.
