“The operation was at this time effectively unknown to President Barack Obama or Valerie Jarrett and it remained that way until AFTER it had already been initiated. President Obama was literally pulled from a golf outing and escorted back to the White House to be informed of the mission. Upon his arrival there was a [...]

* Bumped up from January 7, 2010. * I love John Kass of the Chicago Tribune. He is one of the very, very few columnists who tried to warn us about Obama, Obama’s record (or lack thereof), how he came to be a Senator, and all about Chicago Politics. Simply put, he was a voice [...]

You may recall that when Bush was president, it was like pulling teeth trying to find out just who had visited the White House. Let’s just say he dug in his heels a bit on releasing that information. Maybe it had something to do with Cheney’s “secret” Energy Meeting, who knows, but it was a [...]

I know, I’m a little late to the party writing about Rio winning the 2016 Olympics, but it isn’t for lack of interest. Not at all – rather, I have been amused by some stories I have seen on the IOC decision. To say it took some people by surprise (that is, the Obamas, Oprah, [...]

Editor’s Note: Because Paula Abeles’ special No Quarter Radio guest tonight is David Alinsky, the son of the father of “community organizing,” Saul Alinsky, we are republishing relevant past articles. (See Bud White’s post earlier today.) This story by law professor Stephen Diamond was originally published on December 14, 2008. David Alinsky will reminisce about [...]

According to John Kass in this VERY good piece from January 9, Chickens Dancing, Roosting in 5th District (major H/T to KenoshaMarge via NH). I tell you, that is one courageous man given how so many of Obama’s critics, or people close to him, are silenced tout suite. But that as not stopped Kass. He [...]

(bumped up by nasuS) [Truthteller's piece is terrific. I've added the latest video from the guys at the Nose On Your Face at the end. I think it is a dandy companion for this piece.] Barack Obama on Thursday stated the following: “I have never spoken to the governor on this subject. I am confident [...]

CHRIS MATTHEWS to Bill Ayers, December 10, 2008, Hardball, MSNBC: “I was a Capitol policeman at the time, so I was one of the guys that could have been killed obviously at the time you put that, your guys put that bomb in there. So I have a little personal interest. It wasn’t just vandalism. [...]

Please read the Criminal Complaint filed by David W. Cain, Special Agent of the FBI. Details of the conversations Blagojevich had with his operatives about Barack Obama and the possibility Barack Obama would strike several deals with Blagojevich regarding the open Senate seat are discussed, and yes, quotations are provided. I enjoy this gem from [...]

Just as Daley controlled Obama in Chicago, Daley will control Obama in Washington, DC. I quote the Chicago Tribune with added emphasis: It didn’t take long for Barack Obama to start playing a significant role in promoting Chicago’s bid for the 2016 Summer Olympics. About 15 minutes into Chicago’s Friday presentation of its bid plans [...]

From the NYTimes‘s Caucus Blog, via Time‘s Mark Halperin: “Nearly two decades ago, Valerie Jarrett hired a young lawyer named Michelle Obama for a job at Chicago’s City Hall. Now President-elect Barack Obama has hired Ms. Jarrett for a senior role in the White House. “Ms. Jarrett’s role will be threefold, as is her title: [...]

No Quarter introduced readers to the Mutual Bank in Chicago after a Chicago Sun-Times columnist mentioned how a certain financial institution in Chicago would become the subject of a federal probe to be conducted by Fitzgerald’s prosecutors in relation to the conviction of Antoin “Tony” Rezko. Although I cautioned I did not have conclusive evidence [...]

John Kass had a very interesting piece in the Chicago Tribune the other day, “Daley Reins In Radicals — The Chicago Way” about Obama and his associates, written by someone who knows Chicago Politics. Despite Obama’s attempts (successful as far as the MSM is concerned) to portray himself as a “fresh as a daisy” politician, [...]
