When the kangaroo courts found that Palin “abused” her power as governor when firing a corrupt police official, the media was all over it. When “Joe the Plumber” exposed the socialist nature of Obama, the media went after him finding a small tax problem. However, Obama clearly violates Illinois ethics laws and the media is silent once again.
“Apparently, on Obama’s released tax records, he discloses income from speaking fees. The problem? Accepting payment for speaking fees when you’re a legislator is against Illinois state law
Apparently, as an Illinois state legislator through 2004, Barack was prohibited from taking honoraria for speaking under the Illinois Governmental Ethics Act
But what about Barack Obama’s 2000 and 2002 tax returns?
2000: On his 2000 Schedule C-EZ, Barack reported that he received $16,500 as a “Foundation director/Educational speaker.”
