Rezko Speaks, Prosecutors Interested in Obama Listen »

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 [...]

“The Hunt For Sarah October” »

Oh. Dear. GODDESS. Are you freakin’ kidding me? I had heard talk of such a thing, but I cannot believe they are actually doing this. What am I going on about?

Swiftboat Redux? »

Now this is just ironic. Some of you may recall that not too long ago, Andrew Sullivan attacked yours truly. My sister sent me a link to Andrew’s latest drivel, more attack on Sarah Palin (if you feel you must read his piece, here is the LINK). For him to use an undocumented comment by [...]
