#1 Obama would have been aware that Said had already been caught falsifying his bio to claim Paleo residency, when his real residence was Cairo. Said was on the PLO puppet structure, the Palestinian National Council. Clearly, Obama was seeking radical credentials, which I am more than happy to grant him.

#3 to be fair, back in 98 Obama was pretty close to a nothing and besides Prof Said was more than just a terrorist apologist (for example he headed the modern language association about that time)

#4 The MLA has done significantly more damage to Western civilization than the PLO could dream of doing.

Ok. I forget, was St Obama already a legilator, or was he still a Con Lawyer? And why, in either capacity, would he need to consult with somebody from the MLA?

#6 FWIW, Obama was a State Senator from 96-2004. He represented a district that contained the U of Chicago. People think of the U of Chicago as a conservative bastian but that is not true (although the B-school and economics dept are right leaning). There were probably a bunch of lefty conferences where a bigshot like Said would have been invited.

#7 This was a structured dinner. Notice numbers on table. Obama was probably asking the guy his name. God knows if every time a young dumbass sat at a table he would have to study the bio of the guy next to him no one would ever eat. This looks more like hillary slime team at work digging up crap again. Obama's a dumbass that plays the race card upfront, but this one is nothing.
