The Solicitor General is in no way characterized as the President's own lawyer.

That would be the White House Counsel. Currently Greg Craig , with a staff of "Deputy Counsels and Special Counsel, Associate Counsels, Deputy Associate Counsels, Research Director, and Staff Assistants and Administrative Assistants".

President Barack Obama said, "The White House Counsel’s office is tasked with making sure that we are operating under the highest standard of ethics and transparency for the American people. "

Sounds like they should putting the long form birth certificate on the White House website.

ROFLMAO!

BTW, one of those Deputy Assistant Counsels is one Rashad Hussain, 2003 Soros fellow, who says in his biography that says in his biography that he "finds his heritage central to his identity as a Muslim American and his career goals, especially in light of events in recent history," namely 9/11.

I'll go you one better. Tony West, Barack Obama's pick as the Asst. Attorney General, Civil Division (the #3 man at DOJ) was the lead counsel for John Walker Lindh, "the American Taliban". In the future, when terrorists sue for damages because of their incarceration - as is already been done in a number of cases, including one Padilla v Yoo - it will be a former terrorist's defense counsel who's now in charge of the American defense team tasked with fighting the case on behalf of the US Government. No conflict of interest there, eh?
