Feds Protect Obama's Mob Banker Senate Candidate
Judicial Watch ^ | Oct. 25, 2010

Obama has pulled strings to help his shady banker friend win a tight U.S. Senate race by delaying an overdue federal report on his mob-connected bank's failure until after the election. Illinois State Treasurer, Alexi Giannoulias, helped operate the family bank before it was shut down for "unsafe banking practices" that have cost U.S. taxpayers $394 million. For years Broadway Bank did business with convicted felons and mobsters by providing them with tens of millions of dollars in "loans." Besides giving Russian mobsters cash, Broadway also gave JAILED Democratic fundraider and longtime Obama supporter and benefactor [Syrian] Tony Rezko millions. In fact, Giannoulias' bank gave Rezko a $23 million "loan" while he was embroiled in a huge federal investigation. Most recently Giannoulias was embroiled in the bribery scandal masterminded by Illinois Governor Rod Blaqovich. Giannoulias' skeletons have not deterred Obama from campaigning hard - and raising big bucks - for his unscrupulous friend.

Now, for the first time in American history, it's become head-quartered in Washington, D.C. In case FReepers forget, Tony Rezko was the convicted felon that arranged the real estate swindle that allowed Obama to purchase his property in Chicago for below market value and make a windfall profit.
