The Complaint Against Obama Filed With the Illinois Bar

The National Review reports:
Some anonymous figure has filed a complaint with the Illinois Bar Association, charging Obama with:

a) making a statement of material fact in connection with a bar application that the applicant knows to be false; b) committing a criminal act that reflects adversely on the lawyer's fitness to practice law; c) engaging in conduct involving dishonesty, fraud, deceit or misrepresentation; d) engaging in conduct prejudicial to the administration of justice; and e) engaging in conduct which brings the courts or the legal profession into disrepute.

The complaint charges Obama with not admitting his drug use on his application.

18. Have you ever, either as an adult or juvenile, been cited,
arrested, accused, formally or informally, or convicted of any
violation of any law other than moving traffic violations.

In response to question 18, it is understood the Respondent answered
"no." The Respondent did not disclose his multiple drug use occurring
through his time in high school and college.

Interesting. One wonders how the anonymous complaint filer knows that Obama answered "no."
Interesting.
