answer to KmX … it was actually Rezko’s wife that bought the land ..when she was only bringing in an income of approx $35,000. per yr..i want to know who her mortgage company is and i want to know how to get those kinds of freaking loans!!

Also don’t anyone forget..The judge in the Rezko case was not going to incarcerate Rezko right away and Rezko volunteered to be incarcerated immediately!

I guess he had an incling he was dead man walking with all the info he had, and he was most likely safer in jail than walking free!

Don’t forget, john edwards was to be the poverty Czar and when the DNC met to decide on their platform they decided to put on hold the talk of such a position. This was just within days of john getting caught with an affair and a kid.

Why would Rezko buy land for over $600K and then resell a piece of it to Obama at a depreciated price? Is Rezko in the business of makign a loss? Rezko received Millions in susidies from the State when Obama was in the Illinois legislature. If this was a repblican sentaor with the surname STEVENS and he live in Alaska he would be indicted for failing to document his monetary gifts as a senator..

That Land Rezko gave to Obama was a gift.

What?
I am not so blinded by hatred that I pretend the three of four boogey men are represtentative of the people Obama knows

Do you honestly think john McCain bush or climton don’t have three or four dubious people in the circle of people they know?

Come on.

In another misfortunate association, Obama’s choice for commerce secretary has withdrawn his nomination. Gov. Bill Richardson has some reason to think he would be an embarrassment to the New O Order. According to the NYT, January 9, 2009, in Nationwide Inquiry on Bids for Municipal Bonds, “Email messages, taped phone conversations and other court documents suggest that companies did not engage in open competition for this lucrative business, but secretly divided it among themselves, imposing layers of excess cost on local government…”

Reminds me of what the insurance companies were doing. They’d pretend to give competing bids while they alloted the business among themselves… something to keep in mind as the move to make people buy health insurance gets rolling.

I have said all along that BHO will pardon all these people on 1-21-09. What have they got to fear from anyone? The Scooter got off, why not others. We have become more of a country, where the law does not apply to the connected and no body seems to get upset about it anymore.
