BOSTON --Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama got more than an education when he attended Harvard Law School in the late 1980s. He also got a healthy stack of parking tickets, most of which he never paid.
The Illinois Senator shelled out $375 in January -- two weeks before he officially launched his presidential campaign -- to finally pay for 15 outstanding parking tickets and their associated late fees.
The story was first reported Wednesday by The Somerville News.
Obama received 17 parking tickets in Cambridge between 1988 and 1991, mostly for parking in a bus stop, parking without a resident permit and failing to pay the meter, records from the Cambridge Traffic, Parking and Transportation office show.
He incurred $140 in fines and $260 in late fees in Cambridge in all, but he paid $25 for two of the tickets in February 1990.
Jen Psaki, a spokeswoman for the Obama campaign, dismissed the tickets as not relevant.
"He didn't owe that much and what he did owe, he paid," Psaki said on Wednesday. "Many people have parking tickets and late fees. All the parking tickets and late fees were paid in full."
NEVER in my boldest hour would I be brave enough to just wip right in and park my car in bus parking on a public street. That is just plain rude then and still is today but apparently being curteious to the law wasn't on his agenda back then while he was attending "LAW" School.
I SUPPORT OBAMA!!!!
Never did I look down on you for doing a physical job.
Your parents were probably paramedics 15+ years ago. The world has changed since then and america is FAT, incase you didnt know it. And yes, on a daily basis I have patients that are well over 400 pounds. My company has a stretcher dedicated for fat people. Lifting 45lbs is nothing compared to 400. Like I said, im not comparing dicks with you.
You have yet to prove a point, how am I ignorant..... son?
no it was only about 7 yrs ago! and things havent changed that much, people have always been fat! And only you would bring up comparing dicks...FAG
I was referring to 18,000 vrs buying a used car. Foreign cars arnt an option in my mind. So why dont you open your eyes and understand what im saying before you attack me.
There is absolutely NO WAY EITHER of your 4x4 rangers got 23mpg. Tell them that at www.rangerpowersports.com they will laugh in your face. Those guys know more about the truck than you can imagine.
Sit on my lazy ass all day... behind a steeringwheel? Youve got it all ass backwords. Ive helped more people in the past 4 years of my life then you will in your entire life judging by your attitude in this thread. People love dogging me and my profession until they need me. Then I cant get there fast enough theres nothing else that matters and theres no price thats too high.
Son? im not your son. I worked physically too (Construction for 2 years and worked for a recycling company for 2 years throwing catalatic converters in the back of a truck, dont pretend I dont know what Physical work is). Then I got an education, and now I still do physical work. You tell me how you get a 68 year old woman that weighs 400 lbs out from inbetween a toilet and a wall and onto a backboard without hurting her any worse. Its not like its physical work to carry a 350lb man down 3 flights of stairs with a 120lb female partner thats never lifted anything more than a infant in her life.
Why are you even bringing this sh*t up? This is a obama thread. Im not gunna sit here and compare dicks with you.
=)) i was hoping youd see what i thought of youIts a phrase, only liberals would take it litterally. Like when you brought up "sausage fest" in my other thread. Get a life.
I only stopped discussing this cuz' its not going anywhere. Im sure I speak for the majority ( since the majority won ) that we're all sorry that the man you hoped would win the election didn't, so FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THAT IS HOLY GET OVER IT AND MOVE ON! BETTER LUCK NEXT TIME!
This thread has inspired me enought write what I wrote so I gave it enough respect to go back through everyone elses opinions. What I can say is that there is a few of you that feel just like me.
JLSparky7 --- I would invite you in drink a 6 pack with you anyday.
I don't expect anyone to change their opinions on someone or something, thats the beauty of politics. We can all agree to disagree. I only was trying to open your mind to the possibilities. If you don't wish to agree on something thats your choice but like I said earlier give him a chance, don't be so closed minded and shut the door so soon. I can tell you read alot of books by their cover. Perhaps if you gave something a chance before being so negative on it you might find you like it or could stand to learn something from it.
And once again my point exactly has been proven...you are the epidemy of all that makes the country great, you are a true american hero aren't you JL?

UPDATE: The Supreme Court has turned down an emergency appeal from a New Jersey man who says President-elect Barack Obama is ineligible to be president because he was a British subject at birth.
The court did not comment on its order Monday rejecting the call by Leo Donofrio of East Brunswick, N.J., to intervene in the presidential election. Donofrio says that since Obama had dual nationality at birth -- his mother was American and his Kenyan father at the time was a British subject -- he cannot possibly be a "natural born citizen," one of the requirements the Constitution lists for eligibility to be president.
Donofrio also contends that two other candidates, Republican John McCain and Socialist Workers candidate Roger Calero, also are not natural-born citizens and thus ineligible to be president.
At least one other appeal over Obama's citizenship remains at the court. Philip J. Berg of Lafayette Hill, Pa., argues that Obama was born in Kenya, not Hawaii as Obama says and the Hawaii secretary of state has confirmed. Berg says Obama also may be a citizen of Indonesia, where he lived as a boy. Federal courts in Pennsylvania have dismissed Berg's lawsuit.
Please read! there is part in there about McCain not being elligible for presidency as well
