But the deal was unethical because Rezko had conferred a benefit by helping Obama obtain something he “couldn’t otherwise afford”. Plain as day. Obama should have been investigated / prosecuted. At a minimum shamed from office. He and his wife are crooks!

“Obama would still have to overpay, even for just the house.”

How do you figure that? He paid $1.65m., $300K LESS than the asking price even as Rezco’s wife is paying $125K MORE than market value for her lot. He later paid $104.5K for a piece of Rezco’s lot, which thereby makes that $500K lot unbuildable, thereby conferring Obama with a view he could not have afforded unless he’d been willing to acquire that lot.

So Obama essentially paid $1.75 million for combined properties worth $2.45 million. Happens every day. Nothing to see here, folks. Tony Rezco’s just a swell guy (Obama would be happy to give you a character reference for him if that would make you happy). Can’t we talk about something serious?

I agree. I like what he is saying, but i could easily see him saying the exact opposite if he were planning to run against a conservative Republican.

He’s Mitt Romney with courage and bad hair.

I am not defending Obama and the deal was total sleaze but as far as borrowing $903,000 on a $1,650,000 sales price every lender in town will do that deal. Its 54.7% LTV and not a problem for anyone. I was a Fannie Mae underwriter, and underwriter for major lenders for 10 years and a mortgage broker for 17 years. That is a slam dunk loan. Anything below 75% LTV is a no brainer and they could get the same exact loan right now on that house. Of course its probably decreased in value at this point.

Now the sale of the lot from Rezko is another thing entirely. That needs to be investigated. Trump is right.

“pulled a shady property stunt like this or FAR WORSE to get a property.” Mark Levin told a story that a few years back, Trump pulled every string in the book to get an elderly lady's home condemned because he wanted the property for part of a building. You know the reason, it would be for the public good. He lost. The home now stands in the middle of Trump's building (casino?).

You have to be the #1 hypocrite at FR. For years you have been trashing Sarah Palin, who was almost single-handedly battling Obama while Trump was contributing to every liberal Democrat and RINO in sight and no Republicans.

Now you have a man-crush on one of the biggest frauds in the history of American politics. Trump has changed positions on key issues out of political expediency more often than Romney.

But, now, in your mind, anyone who is dissing Trump and his history is an Obama supporter.

You are an absolute joke!

“They get a chance to delegitimize the claims before the election as the ravings of “The Donald” with no corroborating proof thereby immunizing Obama against these claims in the election. I theorize that Trump is a willing accomplice in the re election effort of Obama.”

I theorize that you over-theorize. Turn the bubble machine off. You’re in overdrive.

You can't honestly think Sarah would choose someone like The Donald as a running mate do you?

He’s there to make outrageous claims he knows will be eviscerated by the press.

Specifically, what outrageous claims are you referring to?

"Birther" claims? That is the lexicon of the Left that uses such terms as birther and denier to ridicule and demean the oppostion. Trump has asked that Obama release the long form of his birth certificate. Trump has said that he hopes that he has one. Is that so outrageous?

It is not up to Trump to prove anything. The burden of proof is on Obama. Why hasn't he released the document and others like his school and medical records.? What is he hiding?

I highly doubt Donald Trump is presidential material

Whenever I hear someone make this type of comment about a potential GOP nominee, it makes me think, "How about Obama? He was a community organizer, a one term state senator where he voted "present" most of the time". And he was a less than one-term US Senator who spent most of that time campaigning. So what made/makes Obama "presidential material"?

Typical. A non answer and I’m not surprised. I’m not sure you would know intelligence if you saw it.

I join with others on this thread who have asked you:

What “outrageous claims” has Trump made?

And I ask that as a Palin-supporter who is very wary of Trump’s ulterior motives.

But the question is to you: What “outrageous claims” has he made?

Question What were the ties Bush’s and McCain had with Soros? I have heard Soros also had ties with Trump- true or false?
