Attorney representing 9 federal employees slams Justice Department
A defense attorney representing one of the nine individuals indicted in federal court for looking up President Obama's student loan records characterized the Department of Justice's actions as a political prosecution.
"The only reason my client was prosecuted by the federal government was that happened to look up the student loan records of Barack Obama," attorney David R. Treimer of Davenport, Iowa, told WND.
Treimer represents John Phommivong, a 29-year-old who is the son of parents who fled Southeast Asia during the Vietnam War.
Phommivong has pleaded guilty in the case and is awaiting a pre-sentencing conference in court with the prosecutors Aug. 31 and a sentencing hearing scheduled for Sept. 24.
He is charged in the U.S. District Court in the Southern District of Iowa with a criminal misdemeanor under 26 U.S.C. Section 1030, a broadly worded section of the federal code devoted to computer fraud that carries a maximum penalty of one year in prison and a $100,000 fine, if convicted.
Phommivong also looked up student loan records for Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt and John Wayne, according to Treimer.
"There was no criminal intent on the part of my client," Treimer insists. "He was just bored and to pass the time he used the National Student Loan Data System to look up the student-loan records of celebrities."
Treimer insisted that looking up Barack Obama's student loan records was what triggered his prosecution.

You bet your backside it’s criminal.
You beat me to it.
Anyone have a link to when MO was whining about finally making the last payment on their students loans but their tax return didn’t show any student loan payments?
Where are the whistle blowers?
Hiding, protecting their pensions.

This is an awesomme connection. (Pinging Beckwith). So there is a Black Panther/Obama connection!
See post #38 for a little more history.
Thanks Lady Jag!
This is so bad it’s the worst ever.
LJ, can you repost the link? The title link takes me to the current post and the Chatham link has an internal error message. Thanks so much.
Indeed it is!
I mean the links from your post #38. Thanks.
That dead link is the work of NWO erasers.
It’s been cleansed.
That’s why you need to save stuff you deem significant.
Thanks.
The attorney quoted in the posted article is absolutely correct. Unfortunately, he is battling an overzealous prosecution.
No “may have” about it. Khalid Al-Mansour did aid Obama get into Harvard Law School.
Khalid al-Mansour is the “mystery man” that former Manhattan Borough Chairman Percy Sutton named as having aided Barack Obama financially at Harvard Law School. He also mentored Black Panthers’ founders Huey Newton and Bobby Seale in the early 1960s — video.
From YouTube.com: “Percy Sutton (Malcom X’s Lawyer) Says Barack Obama Knows And Was Financed By The Racist Radical Muslim And Saudi.”

Read this from westcoastgirl from two years ago:
white people deserve — and want — to have their ears and noses cut off, and that Muslims shouldn’t worry, “because God wants you to do it
More on this story. “Obama Had Close Ties to Top Saudi Adviser at Early Age,” by Kenneth R. Timmerman for NewMax, September 3 (thanks to JM):
New evidence has emerged that Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama was closely associated as early as age 25 to a key adviser to a Saudi billionaire who had mentored the founding members of the Black Panthers.
In a videotaped interview this year on New York’s all news cable channel NY1, a prominent African-American businessman and political figure made the curious disclosures about Obama. (See Video Clip Below)
Percy Sutton, the former borough president of Manhattan off-handedly revealed the unusual circumstances about his first encounter with the young Obama.
“I was introduced to (Obama) by a friend who was raising money for him,” Sutton told NY1 city hall reporter Dominic Carter.
“The friend’s name is Dr. Khalid al-Mansour, from Texas,” Sutton said. “He is the principal adviser to one of the world’s richest men. He told me about Obama.”
[...]
In an exclusive interview with Newsmax from his home in San Antonio, Texas, al-Mansour said he would not comment specifically on the statement by Percy Sutton because he was afraid anything he said would get “distorted.”
“I was determined I was never going to be in that situation,” he said. “Bloggers are saying this is the new Rev. Wright — in drag! — and he is a nationalist, racist, and worse than Rev. Wright. So any statement that I made would only further this activity which is not in the interest of Barack.”
But in the lengthy interview, al-Mansour confirmed that he frequently spoke on university campuses, including Columbia, where Percy Sutton suggested he met Obama in the late 1980s, and confirmed his close relationship with Prince Alwaleed.

Not about Michelle’s bitching, but this does debunk the “student loan” story.
http://www.newsmax.com/KenTimmerman/obama-harvard-/2009/12/14/id/342454
Obama released seven years of tax returns on March 25 of 2009.
The returns, dating back to 2000, indicate that the couple paid no interest on their student loans. The interest from such loans would have been deductible on their joint income tax returns.
For 2000 through 2004, taxpayers declared student loan interest as a deduction on line 24 of federal form 1040. After 2004, the deduction can be taken on Line 33.
But the Obamas never declared a dime of interest in student loans on their return, most likely because they simply earned too much money to be able to take the deduction under the IRS rules.
Obama spokesman Ben LaBolt had no answer as to why the Obamas’ failed to declare the loans, stating the obvious that “because interest on the loans was not deducted, it would not appear on the Obamas’ personal return.”
I believe there is an Obama/Black Panther connection going back to Obama’s time at Columbia College, but can’t prove it.
According to a 1982 New York Times report, Broadway Baby was implicated in an investigation of a series of violent armed robberies in New York — netting more than $2 million over a two-year span — committed by former Black Panthers and Weather Underground members in the early ‘80s.
The manager of Broadway Baby at that time? Bernardine Dohrn.
The Brinks murders, the ongoing roundup of the killers and the ensuing trial were all over the New York Papers, radio and TV from 1981 to 1984. Barack was living in New York that entire period, and Bill Ayers was attending Bank Street College which was about four blocks from Columbia. Obama could not have escaped hearing about these events.
The question is — was he involved?
Thanks.
But does it really debunk the story? All we know is that they may have made too much money to declare the deduction if there was one. At best, it’s unprovable one way or the other from the returns. Sorry, but he’s a liar and she lets things slip. If either one said the sun rose in the west, I wouldn’t believe it.
What was Helen E. Jones-Kelley’s punishment?
