I hope he has a good security system and a bullet proof vest.
I don’t know why they call him an mole. Sounds like he’s just an informant, not an undercover FBI agent.
What have we come to ? First, this guy scams people who trust him and steals their money. Then, to “win back his good name” he becomes the most loathsome of all creatures (at least that’s how it was before teacher told Johnny to come to her with all disputes), a stool pidgeon.
This needs to be bookmarked. It is THAT interesting. Info relating to Obama has been scrubbed, as usual with Obama.

This is juicy!
The donation is significant, for some believe Barack Obama may be one of the unnamed Illinois government officials mentioned in the following ABC News report on the FBI affidavit filed in US Attorney Fitzgeralds case against Rezko before Obamas political godfather was arrested on Monday:
According to an FBI affidavit filed in the case, Rezko sought to get a visa for Auchi to visit the United States by contacting certain Illinois government officials.
Rezko sought the visa on behalf of his friend in 2004, and Rezko helped Obama finance the real estate transaction involving his Kenwood mansion in 2005.
We also learn today that Auchis company has deleted information on two websites regarding Auchis visit to Illinois in 2004 upon hearing that rumors of a meeting between Auchi and Obama are circulating in the US.

An Iraq power plant is even involved. The Feds are definitely investigating this.
Enjoy!
This title will be available next month as the “pick of the Month” from the Hillary Clinton Book Club. Happy reading.
People here on FR who keep calling Obama "naive" are truly underinformed. There is dirt here that people like this Thomas guy have told the Feds that has yet to come out. Lucky the SunTimes has gotten word of some it and kept the story out there in recent weeks.
Uh Oh......Lookout Obama.....Maggie Williams HUSBAND is RON NOBLE of FBI WACO fame and FOB and FOH (now heading INTERPOL)......wonder if Thomas is a friend of RON NOBLE????? Maybe THIS is how they will get Obama defeated!!
More recently, according to the FBI, Rezko had contacted "certain Illinois government officials" to help Auchi get a visa to the United States. Although the senator has stated that he did not work in any way to help Auchi receive a visa, news accounts raised questions of whether Rezko may at one time have introduced Obama to Auchi.
"[W]hen he was running for the Senate, Mr. Obama stopped by to shake hands while Mr. Rezko, an immigrant from Syria, was entertaining Middle Eastern bankers considering an investment in one of his projects," the New York Times reported in June 2007.
But Obama's campaign says that the senator never met with Auchi.
"He has no recollection of ever meeting him," wrote campaign spokesman Bill Burton in an e-mail to RAW STORY.
I don't think life handed him lemons. He tried to hand other people lemons and got what he deserved.
...drawing more than $350,000 from his customers' credit cards ...charged more than $140,000 to an American Express business account he obtained using his father's Social Security number.

The clout of Rezko and his associates reflects the growing political presence of Arab Americans as a group. Ray Hanania, author of Arabs of Chicagoland, estimates there are 250,000 people of Arab descent in northeastern Illinois. Hanania describes Rezko as “very personable and generous” and remembers that he was “a major donor” to the Arab American Democratic Club, which Hanania helped found in 1994. The club staged a major fundraiser in Bridgeview in September 2006 for Blagojevich’s reelection.
Informative article. Five pages of connections...
I thought that was (sort of) Bill Clinton's line.
That Blago must be some DIRT-BAG!

“Chicago, he said, “is a wonderful place to do this kind of business. It is the most forgiving.”
Should read - Chicago, he said, “is a wonderful place to be a crook. Since everyone else here is too.”
If only something like this could bring down not just their mouthpiece in Springfield Blagojevich, but the whole Daley crime family...
