Obama, Ayers, and Sidley & Austin:
Click “more” if you want to see the map.
Place your mouse/cursor over the line connecting two points to view their relationship.

It works for me but I’ve never embedded a Muckety map before so I may have done something wrong. Give it a few seconds to populate and if it still doesn’t work, you can find the original map at this link.
DRJ (c953ab) — 10/7/2008 @ 1:18 pmSeeing it now … but also got an error / exception about too many Java VMs being active (presumably some kind of reentrancy situation ala something referencing itself?) … anyway seems to be working well now 🙂 thx!
Steven W. (a6a134) — 10/7/2008 @ 1:26 pmI think we had a server issue. Everything slowed down or glitched for a few minutes.
DRJ (c953ab) — 10/7/2008 @ 1:29 pmAlong with Winston and Strawn, Sidley and Austin are two of the largest law firms here, and they’re known for employing ex – gov’t officials after their political careers have ended.

😉
DMartyr (dfb370) — 10/7/2008 @ 2:26 pmWow, what a fun site. If the Muckety crew really had time they could put in links to various wepages and ‘pedias when you cliked on a name.
One of the really disturbing parts of the links though, although this is probably just a sampling artifact of how the site was constructed, was that there were NO common links between Obama and GWBush. If it’s accurate then that’s a sort of microcosm of how far apart all our little Washington partisans are. Don’t they even belong to the same dining club? Go the the same cafeteria? Something?
Would it be the same if they had an Obama and McCain link map? One would hope that there would be some common links, otherwise where is the united we stand part of our Democracy?
