The Obama administrations witch hunts against Bush administration lawyers involved in writing legal opinions supporting enhanced interrogation techniques suggest Barack Obama and his people are willing to do almost anything for political advantage and political revenge and for the purpose of pleasing their radical left-wing base.
Republicans and most decent Americans would not play this game of banana republic, Soviet-style harassment of an outgoing administration, but the Democrats should realize they are playing a dangerous game, which they may one day be the target of. In fact, if someone wants to demonstrate the folly of the Democratic gambit, they dont have to wait until the end of the Obama administration.
If someone wants to use the code of ethics of the legal profession to harass the Obama administration (as the Obama administration has misused it), they could start right now. Someone could file an ethics complaint with the Illinois Bar Association, as Mr. Obama has clearly violated the rule, applicable to all lawyers admitted in Illinois and elsewhere, that you are subject to legal discipline including suspension from the practice of law and even disbarment for lying or otherwise engaging in dishonest conduct.
The Illinois and Pennsylvania Rules of Professional Conduct on lying and dishonesty are written to apply to conduct that is within or outside the practice of law. Rule 8.4 of both the Illinois and Pennsylvania Rules of Conduct is titled Misconduct and prohibits attorneys from engaging in conduct involving dishonesty, fraud, deceit or misrepresentation. I submit it would be quite easy to prove that Mr. Obama, admitted to practice in Illinois, has violated this rule by a regular habit of lying, not just to one person, but also to the nation.
Here are just a few of the endless lies

Well, someone needs to get this party started!
Disbarred and Impeached IMO.
Democrats know they can get away with anything they want, because Republicans will always turn around and self-righteously proclaim they will not take the same low road.
This point of the posted article, if it logically followed the headline, would be, "Obama, (or whatever his legal name is) lied on his Illinois Bar Application," specifically in regard to aliases.
End of story. Eminently provable, and if Obama/Soetoro wanted to contest it, he would have to do some disinterring of his own, namely providing the records of his life.
Instead, Old Herb takes us round Robin Hood's barn on a fanciful trip to nowhere, without mentioning the most obvious issue.
You know, its time to quit the huggle muggle of trying to get Obama out of office before his 4 yrs are up. I don’t care what is cooked up with that goal in mind, its just not going to happen.
Our efforts would be better spent in building up an opposing political agenda for the presidential election in 2012. I am concerned that the GOP is just too fragmented and in a frenzy right now.
We need cool heads with an intelligent approach. Right now I think the Libertarians are better equipped than the GOP.
AMEN!
The Illinois Bar will dismiss the filing on grounds of standing. Only Opossum would have proper legal standing.
Lawyers think they are entitled to ignore the law as it applies to them. Lawyers consider themselves above the law. Lawyers own the law. Laws are not for them, they are for them to control you. That’s why lawyers want every aspect of existence to be defined by and constricted by laws. They want total control over everything. If humans are ever going to be free, they need to find a way to control lawyers. And don’t try using laws to do it.
And disbarring Clinton had what consequences? Let’s save our time, money and resources for battles that will help save the Republic.
“Lets save our time, money and resources for battles that will help save the Republic.”
I’m with you, my fellow Texan. (ancestors came to Texas in covered wagons)
Someone already has...former Vice President Dick Cheney!!
She can not practice law according to my readings.
We need the Marxist/Muslim out NOW- before he completely destroys America.
Much stronger tactics are required at this time...
Cheney’s been doing a great job!!!
Perhaps, but, he lied by omission:
Photo is Attorney Registration & Disciplinary Commission of the Supreme Court of the State of Illinois of Obama`s where he states he went by no other name (Previous legal name was Barry Soeroto)
