"The law school where Barack Obama once taught is coming to his defense after Hillary ClintonÕs campaign accused him of embellishing his record at the university and falsely claiming he was a law professor.

The University of Chicago Law School posted a brief explanation on its Web site, saying Obama served as a ÒprofessorÓ there, first as a lecturer from 1992 to 1996, and then as a Òsenior lecturerÓ from 1996 to 2004, Òduring which time he taught three courses per year.Ó

Though the Clinton campaign argued that lecturers arenÕt the same as professors since they donÕt have tenure, the law school differed.

ÒSenior Lecturers are considered to be members of the Law School faculty and are regarded as professors, although not full-time or tenure-track,Ó the university statement said.

The school piped up after ClintonÕs campaign circulated a statement Tuesday detailing what it alleged was a pattern of Obama embellishments and mis-statements. The campaign memo came as Clinton was facing sharp criticism that she embellished when she said she landed under sniper fire during a goodwill trip to Bosnia in 1996."

This is an embarrassing rebuttal, which leaves the HRC clan with egg on their face for not understanding the meaning of the word "professor". IT shows they are just a little too desparate to find some button--any button! -- to push, and are overreaching in consequence.
