What Happened to the Obamas' Law Licenses?

By , About.com GuideJune 27, 2012

Follow me on:


According to a widely forwarded text, both Barack and Michelle Obama surrendered their Illinois law licenses to avoid disciplinary action and/or criminal prosecution. One version (see the viral graphic above) goes so far as to claim that the First Lady was actually "disbarred for extortion" in 1993.

Truth or smear?

The quoted email is about the lamest thing I have ever read. The author is really quite hung up on some minor and uninteresting points.

He seems to think that it is virtually a requirement that a President is an attorney. There is no such requirement.

Perhaps he is also confused about “professor” vs “Professor”. To be called “professor” simply one is/was a teacher. To be called “Professor” should mean one has the actual title of Professor.

At any rate, big woops.

Why bother showing the truth to people who would rather believe a lie because it’s more comfortable. Haters gonna hate.
