Britney Spears' dad temporarily took charge of her affairs. Oops, I mean... Tony Rezko has been arrested for extortion and fraud. He's been doing business with Barak Obama for 10+ years, having briefly hired him, sold him land, and made donations to his election campaign in exchange for taxpayer-funded contracts and donations.
LOL @ the beginning. That was too damn funny. IIRC, Rezko was also a "supporter" of Bubba Clinton, but Hillary denies even knowing him.
All part of the same corrupt bunch of SOBS! These are the people that run our government, what does that say about our society?
So its okay for Ron Paul to accept donations from KKK members and other bigots but if someone makes a donation to Obama or Clinton and later gets in trouble then they are all corrupt bunch of SOBS? The hypocrisy is just puring out of you.
Extortion and bribery are worlds apart from accepting donations from any group. To think otherwise is plain ignorance. You should have asked gtech before posting this reponse. Opps , better yet dont consult him lol.
He got in trouble 'while making a donation', not 'later'. Well, actually both while making a donation and later. You call it a donation? If a businessman gives money to a gobment employee in exchange for no-bid contracts, it's called a 'bribe'. Donation would be if he got nothing in return
Obama really didn't have any money until he got elected to the US Senate. Good article from the Washington Post: "Measuring Wealth of the '08 Candidates" http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/03/24/AR2007032400305.html
