Looks like ABC did a tory about this this moring

Thanks to News Busters 

Or will the MSM media not even comment on this.  You haven’t heard about any of thin on CNN, ABC, CBS, NBC or even FOX.  But Obama had dealings with a known political fixer in Illinois when he was buying his house in Chicago.

I have no faith in the MSM to actually tell the public about this, Obama is their Darling and anything bad said about him will be considered racist.  But the Public needs to be told about the dealings of Obama with Tony Rezko.

The Rezko Connection: Obama’s Achilles Heel?

In sharp contrast to his tough talk about ethics reform in government, Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., approached a well-known Illinois political fixer under active federal investigation, Antoin “Tony” Rezko, for “advice” as he sought to find a way to buy a house shortly after being elected to the United States Senate.

The parcel included an adjacent lot which Obama told the Chicago Tribune he could not afford because “it was already a stretch to buy the house.”

On the same day Obama closed on his house, Rezko’s wife bought the adjacent empty lot, meeting the condition of the seller who wanted to sell both properties at the same time.

Rezko had been widely reported to be under investigation by the U.S. attorney and the FBI at the time Obama contacted him and has since been indicted on corruption charges by a federal grand jury in a case that prosecutors say involves bribes, kickbacks and “efforts to illegally obtain millions of dollars.”

This week, a federal judge in Chicago ordered the Rezko trial to begin Feb. 25.

Obama maintains his relationship with Rezko was “above board and legal” but has admitted bad judgment, calling his decision to involve Rezko “a bone-headed mistake.”– We are Illinois
