Schneiderman called a woman of color his "brown slave" and spit at her in the bedroom. She describes Schneiderman as “a Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde; a man who has staked his entire political career on being a champion for women publicly, but abuses them privately. “His hypocrisy is epic. He’s fooled so many people.” NOTE One sex artner said she let his abusive behavior go unreported b/c "he was such an important Democrat."

No sooner had Obama named Schneiderman in his 2012 SOTU address to lead a mortgage abuse unit to investigate and redress the perceived wrongs committed by Wall Street in connection with the sub-prime mortgage crisis, Schneiderman fired his first shot, filing a suit alleging that several major banks and a mortgage registration service engaged in fraudulent foreclosures. Billions in settlements were handed over by Obama to leftist groups like La Raza and Acorn.
Obama didnt ask about the AG's "brown slave"?
