The Rezko Favour
Posted on 10/13/2008 9:30:04 PM PDT by PBRCat
Tony Rezko used Alexi Giannoulias bank to float $450,000 in bad checks, while campaigning for Alexi’s brother Demetris to be placed on the Illinois Finance Authority Board.
Demetris Giannoulias was on the Board at the Crossroads Fund, a Chicago Based left wing organzation supported by Bill Ayers, Bernadine Dohrn and Barack Obama, which made grants to such stellar organizations as ACORN and other affordable housing swindlers.
In 2002, Rezko borrowed $10.5 Million from Broadway Bank, the Giannoulias family bank, the same bank where Barack Obama kept his Senate campaign funds. In 2006, Sen. Obama endorsed Alexi Giannoulias for Illinois State Treasurer, and gives Sec. Giannoulias a slot to speak at the Democratic National Convention.
Glad to see all these upstanding folks able to work so well together, too bad that Rezko doesn’t want to serve time, and holds quite a bit of information about the Chicago Political Establishment that may be interesting to the Feds.

Oh, Hope springs eternal....and now, back to more cookies to ease the stress.
Cookies... good idea.
I WILL however be purchasing a large cigar if charges are filed on Obama as a result of Rezco’s singing to the feds.
“Say it ain’t so Joe!”
I’ll believe it when I see it.
I’ve got it! Colonel Mustard in the Study with the Candlestick.
No seriously. Got to move fast with this kind of stuff. Running out of time, especially since the MSM has to be fought with about coverage of this stuff.
Source of the story, FWIW:

Sing out loud....sing out strong.
Sing of good things , not bad.
Sing of happy not sad.
Just Sing!!
I’m afraid that even with the evidence against him, no one would press charges against Obama this close to the election. Dems never seem to go to jail when they commit crimes. And their party always ‘stands behind them’. If he were a republican his crimes (if there truly are any here) would already be front page news and the Dems would have this election already won.
What you said.
This piece sounds pretty damning and lists connections not raised much before now.
Never underestimate the political ambitions of Fitz.
Another rock about to be turned over? I’ll bet the house that there is much more criminality that exists than what’s been exposed on this.
LOL. True. I guess we can hold out hope that someone will go the right thing if all this turns out to be true and can be verified. Man, talk about riots in the streets if that were to happen! But, sometimes you gotta to what has to be done!
And we’ll learn about it in 24 business hours.
Merry Fitzmas.
I keep telling myself to never underestimate the power of ego. There could be someone out there, regardless of party who wants there name in the history books as the one who brought Obama down.
Fitz went after Bush/Cheney. He got Scooter instead. Still, he has “cred” with the left.
