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.

Yeah. Just imagine what will happen to Rush and Hannity and all those other people on talk radio.
Is there any ONE person in mainstream media today, who would look at this and forgo their own ambitions to bring it into the light?
There use to be real journalists, real reporters, hungry for the story and they always liked it when America wins.
I’ve said it before....The only way to ensure he sings in time for the election is for McCain to ask Obama on Wednesday night if he will pardon Rezko if elected POTUS.
The answer would have to be no with an audience that big.
Rezko sings loudly and Fitz gets an IOU from McCain.
He is not a lefty! He goes after corruption on both sides. This is the prosecutor who got John Gotti.
Easier to get control of peoples minds without those nasty talk radio guys getting in the way don't ya know.
I agree. Fitz is a very good and capable prosecutor. He has been a breath of fresh air for the most part for a long while in Chicago.
lets not think that justice will be any better....however, I do know that there are Democrats who are mad this time as well....we'll see....
we’ll be back to short wave radios.....and cbs if they are “allowed”....
The Clinton machine is alive and well.
Hillary didn’t name drop Rezko for the fun of it during the debates...it was a glimpse into what she had on him.
Nobama is gonna have to spend 3-4 precious days off message explaining this mess to the masses. McCain has bought himself some time as this story floods the mainstream.
How I see it:
If and when Barack Obama is sworn in, America will “change.” A bona fide neo-Marxist will be U.S. President. He will have a neo-Marxist agenda. ACORN and similar proletariat operations will be in the streets on call. Federal government will morph.
The true Marxist comrades in Congress and in the states will side with their Presidente. The more moderate Democrats will become increasingly uncomfortable and threatened.
Scandals will be concocted against opposers. Crises will arise, which require consolidation of authority by the Presidente and his circle in Congress. Federal investigators will begin to threaten media dissenters, whether “equal time” passes Congress or not.
And what, for federal prosecutors who dare to investigate the Presidente? I would tend to fear for their careers and possibly their lives.
Barack Obama did not show his neo-Marxist allies he was willing to have innocent, botched-abortion born children and Terri Schiavo put to death for nothing. He passed those tests.
If Patrick Fitzgerals is to strike, it had better be in 2008.
I'm an Amateur Radio Operator ( Ham Operator) and I wonder if we will be allowed to stay on the air under Obama.
Not to mention the riots that would happen across this country. My word. Bloodbath.
If you want to keep this ability drag every living being you know to the polls on November 4th to vote McCain
Thank you for the key missing fact in this deal. I don't know why it is that folks who try to explain this deal cannot distill it down to the essential facts - all the essential facts. The essential fact is that the seller could give 0 a $300k discount on the house because he was getting a $385k premium on the lot next door from Rezko. It is the most important point in the whole transaction - and the one that is never stated.
What happens to Fitzgerald if Obama wins before all this comes out?
The smartest move Fitz mad was keeping open the ACORN file so he didn’t have to go back to DOJ and RICO charges could be filed in different states. I am impressed with him and have to wonder now about what he saw with Libby — something is not right because he and Rudy both said that Bush should not interfer. Why? Knowing what I have learned in the last few months, I have to wonder exactly what was said to the Grand Jury and exactly what were they after.
When I discovered that Harken Energy with a majority owner named George Soros bought out Spectrum 7 for major money for a company that was basically bankrupt owned by GW Bush, my radar has been going off ever since. The WH hasn’t said anything about the ACORN fraud, hired Paulson who hired Obama supporters, backed Paulson/Obama/RATs at the meeting against Boehner/McCain, and who knows what else.
Something smells.
which is why Anderson Cooper created a ten most wanted list to use revisionist history (ala Orwell) to blame anyone but legal counsel for Acorn, Obama, for this lending mess.
Somehow this stuff is going to happen too late to matter.
These lawyers better take note that they serve at the pleasure of the president.
No indictment, no job.
The Broadway Bank operated by the Giannoulias family is THE Chicago mob’s bank.
Could Obama/Ayers be hardwired (financially) to the Chicago mob?
“And we’ll learn about it in 24 business hours.”
Yeah...just in time to put the good Senator Obama “off his game”...a girl can home...
