Antoin "Tony" Rezko was arrested early Monday at his Wilmette home by federal agents on an alleged bond violation, the Tribune has learned.
Investigators had in recent weeks become concerned about the movement of some of his finances, a source said. Rezko, who is scheduled to stand trial on corruption charges in less than a month at the Dirksen U.S. Courthouse, was taken into custody due to an alleged bond violation, a source confirmed.

Clinton or Obama whom do you detest more. Obama. His very candidacy is an insult to all Americans. Were he 2 halves white, he would have never raised a dime, nor garnered a Kennedy endorsement. I find it despicable and un-American to choose candidates based on race, gender, or class.

It sure looks that way.
"...an alleged bond violation..." This smells.
To: SE Mom
Check his wallet for a signed copy of that picture of him with the Toons. Also look for admission stubs from the Clintoon lie-brary and massage parlor.

Seems that way.
I have already made a correction to my website’s Obama File.
Precision is important and I thank you for bringing that erroneous piece of information to my attention.

This remindes me of the lawsuit against Bill Simon by Gray Davis cronies in the months before the California Governors election. Simon's family company was found guilty of defrauding a convicted drug trafficker over a pay phone company, but the appeals court later overturned the conviction. Too late for Simon, though.

These charges appear to be filed in federal court. Therefore, Hillary probably is not behind them.Really? The last I had heard, the US Attorney for that district is none other than DEMOCRAT Parick Fitzgerald, the same guy that prosecuted Scooter Libby!

:) Yep-you were right- and according to Bill Kristol they’re going to do The Big Oppo Research Dump this week...

Along your thought - could be he might have agreed to information on his association with/"donations" to Obama and the Clintons in exchange for....amnesty of some sort?
Hmmmm, maybe the Republicans at work here?
