[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 that [...]

Times Online reports calls for Emanuel’s resignation as Obama’s Chief of Staff. I quote with emphasis:
THE bullish, foul-mouthed but effective Chicago arm-twister Rahm Emanuel has come under pressure to resign as Barack Obama’s chief of staff after it was revealed that he had been captured on court-approved wire-taps discussing the names of candidates for [...]

Okay, you have to admit, there has been some pretty strange stuff happening around IL Gov. Rod Blagojevich, and not just that most everyone can now pronounce his name. The humorist, Andy Borowitz had this take on it 12/9/08 in this satirical piece: Illinois Guv Offers Senate Seat to Arresting Officer, Daring Escape Attempt [...]

Has been nabbed - and not a moment too soon,I might add - the question arises of what will happen to the man who put a halt to Blagojevich’s corrupt ways: Patrick Fitzgerald. Now, some of us were wondering what the hell was taking him so long while Tony Rezko was singing like a [...]

Please read the Criminal Complaint filed by David W. Cain, Special Agent of the FBI.

It is very difficult to reconcile Obama being elected to the presidency. I want him exposed for all his empty rhetoric, fraudulent tactics, race baiting, sexism and using homophobia to his advantage, but I don’t want to see my beloved country falling down around our ears just so I can say I told you [...]

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 [...]

Just like the real estate bubble, which exploded like the Death Star, the Worship Our Savior Barack train is going to derail. According to the Washington Times, a criminal complaint has been filed by a real estate appraiser who claims a fraudulent appraisal was used for the lot eventually sold to Barack Obama:
A former [...]

**********Truthteller asks bloggers and reporters to direct their attention to Amrish Mahajan and the Mutual Bank of Harvey.**********
Mike Robinson’s AP article entitled “Obama Fundraiser, Convicted of Fraud, Spills Beans,” corroborates what we at No Quarter have been writing for weeks: Antoin “Tony” Rezko is cooperating with federal prosecutors interested in Barack Obama. While the [...]

We warned readers of No Quarter of the problems convicted slumlord and political fixer Antoin “Tony” Rezko would create for Obama during the final stretch of the Presidential campaign, and now we have confirmation. I quote the Associated Press:
CHICAGO (AP) — Federal prosecutors have asked to delay the sentencing of convicted [...]

No Quarter reproduced Rezko’s letter to Judge Amy St. Eve dated 9 JUN 2008 in an essay I published on 12 JUN 2008. I quote Antoin “Tony” Rezko:
Your Honor, the prosecutors have been overzealous in pursuing a crime that never happened. They are pressuring me to tell them the “wrong” things that I supposedly [...]

So you thought the problem of Barack and Michelle Obamas’ 2005 mansion purchase was dead and buried.
Well, not any more.
A reader of my website who is a tax accountant of many years, one who specializes in criminal matters, says he believes the Obamas have a tax problem.
Simply put, the allocation of [...]

Barack Obama was recruited to become a community organizer in Chicago twenty years ago. After three years of doing this work, Obama realized that he could have far more influence in Illinois if he pursued a career in politics as had Chicago’s first black mayor, Harold Washington. In furtherance of [...]

According to today’s edition of the Chicago Sun-Times, “Barack Obama’s name could have been invoked more at the corruption trial of his former fund-raiser Tony Rezko.” But prosecutors instead chose to focus on the first target of Fitzgerald’s probe: convicted slumlord and notorious Chicago political fixer Antoin “Tony” Rezko, the man who helped Obama purchase his [...]

Larry Johnson writes the following on 28 JAN 2008:
We may not find out until Rezko’s trial starts on 25 February. Imagine this nightmare scenario. Obama nails down the Democratic nomination for President on Super Tuesday. But then comes the Rezko trial and we learn Obama was doing favors to get an Iraqi felon a visa [...]

The content of Antoin “Tony” Rezko’s letter to Judge St. Eve dated 9 JUN 2008 is so trite it is almost entertaining. The trope of the upwardly mobile immigrant is invoked in order to justify all the fraud and corruption in which he and other Chicago politicians and operatives were engaged. “I am [...]

I quote the following from an article entitled “Rezko scandal already casting shadow over presidential race” dated 4 JUNE 2008:
U.S. Attorney Patrick J. Fitzgerald said the verdict represented “an antidote to the poison of corruption” that trial testimony alleged included the fixing of state boards that controlled a $40 billion pension fund and made major [...]

Good job, Obamacrats. Do you seriously believe it is in the best interest of my Party to nominate someone who has had a professional, financial, personal and political relationship with a convicted slumlord and political fixer since at least 1991? Are we now the Party of corruption?

UPDATE (CNN? My stars! Really?):
(Original) Lannie Davis hits a home run — on everything from the double standard (Obama photo vs. the Obama-ite who wore a misogynistic “Iron My Shirt” t-shirt) to Obama’s, um, flexible words on the war in Iraq (”I don’t know” response to how he would have voted on the war had [...]
