It turns out that The Fraud has a history with the Cambridge Police Department whose officers he called “stupid” in the incident with overrated Harvard U. professor, Henry Louis Gates Jr.
Obama had 17 unpaid parking tickets from the Cambridge police, from his time at Harvard Law School. He did not pay those tickets until 2 weeks before he launched his bid for the presidency.
This kind of behavior is typical of the “Rules don’t apply to me” grandiosity of pathological narcissists.
Today’s WorldNetDaily reports that:
According to the Somerville Times in 2007, as a Harvard Law School student, Obama got 17 parking tickets during 1989-1991 from the Cambridge Police Department that he left unpaid until just weeks before he announced his bid for the presidency.
“In other words, as a practicing lawyer in Chicago, he allowed these tickets and penalties to remain unpaid; as an Illinois state senator he allowed these tickets and fines to remain unpaid; and as a United States senator he allowed these almost-two-decade-old signs of his disdain for the law to remain unpaid,” commented John LeBoutillier on Newsmax.com.
The Washington Post said two years ago that the tickets included parking without a proper permit and parking in a bus stop.
The Associated Press reported in 2007 that Obama’s “healthy stack” of parking tickets was finally paid, including late fees, “two weeks before he officially launched his presidential campaign.”
Said Jen Psaki, spokeswoman for Obama’s campaign during his race to the White House, “He didn’t owe that much and what he did owe, he paid. … Many people have parking tickets and late fees.” [Really? I don't! ~Eowyn]
…activist Rev. Jesse Lee Peterson, founder of BOND Action, Inc., called for Obama to apologize.
“Barack Obama was wrong to malign and insult the Cambridge police department without knowing the facts. He wasn’t there. This was a local law enforcement issue; yet Obama chose to elevate it to a national racial crisis on prime time television. Obama’s comments were racist and irresponsible. He owes the nation an apology,” said Peterson.
“Barack Obama is Jeremiah Wright, Jr. Obama’s racially tinged and bias[ed] remarks validate the hatred that many black Americans feel towards police, especially white cops. He has stirred up racial tensions and is causing deep irreparable damage to race relations in this country,” he said. “Mr. President, words have consequences. Do the right thing as a man and as president and apologize. Apologize to Sgt. James Crowley and the Cambridge Police Department. Apologize to white Americans; then apologize to black Americans for encouraging and in many cases validating their hatred of whites and police officers.”

The audacity of this man just amazes me…I’ve had one parking ticket in my life and paid it right away (only like $15 fee). How can one who claims to know the law disregard it so blatantly? Typical of an arrogant elitist.
More evidence that liberals are hypocrites! Don’t listen to what they say; watch what they do!
