Ultimate Racebaiter: Dem Congressman (Who Supports Occupy Grp) Lies About Being 1/2 Black to Get Votes

My favorite political story of the last week is that of Democrat U.S. Congressman Hansen Clarke of Detroit. He's running to be my Congressman and-needless to say-won't be getting my vote. He advocates the most wacky ideas and is an Occupy supporter and sympathizer. Far-left is a compliment for him. He's off the deep end. Throughout his political career as a state legislator and now as a Congressman, he's always maintained that he's half-Black. His father, a Bangladeshi Muslim alien, was obviously Asian. But there is now a lot of doubt regarding whether or not he's really half-Black. His mother's death certificate was dug up by one of Clarke's many opponents, and per years of rumors, it lists her as White.

"I know damn well that it really bothers my white brethren that a black family is occupying the White House," he says in the commercial.

TV commercials for Fieger's Southfield firm have kept him in Metro Detroiters' minds even when he's been otherwise out of the spotlight.

But one former partner, Vernon "Ven" Johnson, said he had enough of Fieger's "irrational, intimidating and aggressive behavior" and formally resigned from the firm by email May 13, 2011.

Johnson alleged professional misconduct, violation of state business law and other behavior caused him to quit his association with the controversial Fieger.

"The combination of intolerable behavior, broken promises and false representations, the mistreatment of clients, ethically questionable edicts, the loss of experienced trial attorneys, the failure to provide corporate books, records and accounts, as well as other actions ... resulted in a deterioration of the business and compelled (my) resignation," Johnson wrote in the complaint.
