I see NUTTING’ I hear NUTTING’ I know NUTTING’ (that a slice of Apple Strudel wouldn’t fix ........ Hogan ...... )

Obama, a friend of Rezko for 17 years, said he often got complaints as a state senator about housing problems. But, he said, "As far as I can tell, we were never contacted by Rezko tenants."

Note how carefully that is worded:

"As far as I can tell, we were never contacted by Rezko tenants."

[Tax-chick]

Obama got more than $50,000 in campaign contributions from Rezko, Rezko's family, his businesses and business associates between 1995 and 2004, records show.

That's a lot of money. I don't expect that politicians will know all about everyone who writes them a check, but that's a LOT of money.

Obama had better contact the Clintonistas for some tips on how to better do this stuff.

Many of the buildings fell into disrepair...

Very very likely caused by the tenants themselves. Someone buys and rents to crackheads, prostitutes, morons, and suction 8ers who trash properties and of course they get labeled as "slumlords."

[True Republican Patriot]

Thats just the visible money! Forty three Million in Fed Funds to renovate buildings, alot of that didn’t go into the buildings for sure.

[stan_sipple]

why would obama need that money since he represented a pretty safe district for him

[TheRedSoxWinThePennant]

Dont worry Obama the media will never let this come out. Hillary on the other hand will make sure of it.

[gridlock]

You mean he's not clean?

Somebody tell Joe Biden!

[appleharvey]

If this was a nation of literate and informed voters with an I.Q. above a Waring blender, Obama wouldn’t even get elected dog catcher in Jerkwater U.S.A.

[Gay State Conservative]

Taking $$$ from a slumlord is one thing but I’d be curious to see the dinars he’s getting from Yemen,Bangladesh and Pakistan.

[stan_sipple]

four of the properties were foreclosed. and a whole four hours of legal work? someone check his law firms revenue to make sure none of its fees were disguised campaign contributions

[pennboricua]

This is a Clinton leak, they know more about Obama than he knows about himself.

[Right Wing Assault]

I can’t remember, my brain’s in a blender, it’s jello!

[unkus]

I wouldn’t bet against you on that. Hitlery has her goons digging up dirt on all her enemies.

[hgro]

Hussien Obama is a typical Chicago pol with empty pockets to be filled by bribes.

[bfree]

Just another lying sack of sh** democrap.

[Brilliant]

I believe him. When I vote against him, it won’t be because of this.
