I saw this on the front page of the New York Times during the elections of 2008 that Michelle's law licenses was pulled. I've listed below from the State of Illinois’s website of the court action against Michelle forcing her to give up her license.
It’s understood that in the box attacked below under Malpractice Insurance – “No malpractice report required as attorney is under court order inactive status.”
In other words Michelle was under court order to give up her license and is not allowed to practice law in Illinois, period. I hate to use this word but its “rumored” that she was extorting clients. Again, it’s “rumored!” It’s also “rumored” that our President Barack Obama may have been disciplined for not divulging other names that he has used in the past. That really concerns me. He also has an inactive Illinois license to practice law (listed below).
This is so unfortunate for the Obama’s, after all they are our first family and he is the first black/white President of the United States but I can’t stop thinking that this guy and his wife are not who they say they are. They don’t seem to uphold the integrity of our past first families, yes, even Richard Nixon for all you lefties out there.
The more I find on the Obamas, the more I feel that the FBI when doing their background check must have been sleeping at the switch. My research is finding reputable sources disclosing many of their past discretion's and questionable acquaintances.
Obamas background is questionable enough but do we now have to worry about his wife, also?
This was taken from the Illinois Law website two years ago - Since than they have altered the court order portion most likely since this article was posted.
