Update: Few Details Known About Obama’s Three Weeks in Pakistan.
"Last April during a San Francisco fundraiser, Obama referred briefly to a visit he had made to Pakistan during his college years.
Campaign press secretary Bill Burton subsequently gave inquiring journalists a few facts. Obama had visited Pakistan for “about three weeks” in 1981, after visiting his mother in Indonesia. He had traveled with a college friend whose family lived in Karachi. He had also visited Hyderabad in India, Burton said.
Word of the visit surprised observers. The Democratic presidential hopeful has not mentioned it before while campaigning, nor has he written about it in either of his memoirs."
We dealt with Obama's dubious character associations awhile back, but for you still undecided web surfing voters, here goes again.
Basically, (thanks to the obama mania media) we know all about Joe the Plumber's tax lien, Palin's wardrobe, her pregnant daughter, Cindy's jewelry, 'unprofessional' journalists who dare to ask tough questions, hung Obama effigies, how many houses John McCain (doesn't) own, - but we still have darn few hard facts about Obama's history. For instance:
* Occidental College records — Not released
* Columbia College records — Not released
* Columbia Thesis paper — ‘not available’
* Harvard College records — Not released
* Medical records — Not released
* Illinois State Senate schedule — ‘not available’
* Law practice client list — Not released
* Harvard Law Review articles published — None
* University of Chicago scholarly articles — None
* Illinois State Senate records—'not available'

Coupled to all of this is the Obama campaign's continued flagrant disregard for online credit card security which facilitates illegal overseas donations, plus a stubborn refusal to release to the FEC a list of hundreds of thousands of small dollar contributers.
