Obama Pays Parking Tickets 17 Years Late

Thursday, March 8, 2007

BOSTON — Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama got more than an education when he attended Harvard Law School in the late 1980s. He also got a healthy stack of parking tickets, most of which he never paid.

The Illinois Senator shelled out $375 in January _ two weeks before he officially launched his presidential campaign _ to finally pay for 15 outstanding parking tickets and their associated late fees.

I never heard that. He didn’t have many late fees.

“Barack Obama got more than an education when he attended Harvard Law School in the late 1980s”

I got a whole mess of parking tickets in college, too. Why don’t universities build more parking ramps? Where does my tuition go, besides homo-studies and lavish Native American clubhouses?

Well, gosh darn...Obama paid his fines 20 years later...Wonder if HE has a valid driver's license...or does his "driver" have the license...and Obama.

What's missing is WHERE he was parking illegally....and why.

You said — “The Illinois Senator shelled out $375 in January _ two weeks before he officially launched his presidential campaign _ to finally pay for 15 outstanding parking tickets and their associated late fees.”

That’s what candidates do. They go through looking for all sorts of problems that can crop up later on and do “damage control” on them right away. So, Obama was doing just like any other candidate would do.

If it had not been for him running for the Presidential election, he would have left them there... LOL...

LOL..GREAT FIND!!

Anyone want to help me with a ‘project’? I would like to gather all of these ridiculous articles and start... INVESTIGATING THE PEOPLE WHO ARE WRITING THIS STUFF ABOUT JOE THE PLUMMER AND SARAH PALIN. Let’s put all of their divorce records, arrest records, home addreses, phone numbers, even traffic tickets, education records...every bit of it online!

Is anyone else already doing this? If so, please point me in the right direction so I can help.

This is the last straw and it’s time to fight fire with fire. I am sick to death of watching these Obama brownshirts in the media destroy freedom in this country. They are trying to intimidate people that are conservative/republicans and ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!

This needs to be sent to all news sources to refresh their memory.

Wasn’t Obama years late in paying his student loans too?

This and so much more- and some really terrible things in his past and yet he skates with the help of the media.

Latest I heard the B Hussein Obama's campaign has found that "Joe also has some outstanding tickets (fines) to pay in Arizona. These tickets are since the year 2000. Amazing in 3 days we have found out so much about Joe, in such little time. I guess the difference is it that he had nothing to hide. Where as the Obama's past is a complete mystery.
