The RNC released this web video titled “Lapse in Judgement” back in 2008.

The ad revealed Barack Obama’s dealings with convicted felon and close friend Tony Rezko.
This great ad described Obama’s relationship with the Chicago crook. Unfortunately, the left-wing media didn’t do its job and protected Obama from any honest attacks during the 2008 campaign.
Today Donald Trump went after Obama’s close ties to convicted criminal Tony Rezko. IB Times reported:
President Obama “never did a deal in his life except with Tony Rezko,” said Donald Trump on Fox News.
“People should look into that one,” he added.
Trump once again went on the offensive against Obama. His previous point of attack was doubts over Obama’s birthplace. Now, it’s the latter’s long history with Tony Rezko, who Hillary Clinton in 2008 called a “slum landlord.”
Rezko is am Illinoisan political fundraiser who was convicted for fraud and bribery in 2008. He was accused of using his political position to extort money from businesses seeking contracts from the Illinois Teachers System Board and the Illinois Health Facilities Planning Board.
Back in the 1990s (before Rezko’s offenses took place), two companies owned by Rezko gave the first ever contributions to Obama’s Illinois Senate campaign. In the 2000s, he served on Obama’s U.S. Senate campaign finance committee.
In 2005, Rezko’s wife bought a lot adjacent to a house Obama purchased for $625,000 and subsequently sold a part of it to Obama. The deal generated much controversy back in Obama’s 2008 presidential campaign.
Reverend Jeremiah G-D America Wright… You’re on standby.
He's gone from novelty to something else entirely. We can't do without this guy: He fights.

The Kenyan plays golf on military bases. He has nothing to fear from Trump or any other protesters.
I think it is time to sit back and eat the popcorn and watch happen whatever is going to happen. But, I think the great thing is thanks to the liberal media he has great name recognition and believability. He will be heard and believed when other won't be, and the media can't do anything about it now.
No, this does not mean I am throwing my support behind Trump. It simply means that I fully support his ability to get the message out when others can't. Go Donald Go!
“He is making complete fools of the whole GOP.”
Absolutely. Most of the rest of the GOP is a bunch of lily-livered, pussified wussies. This is what the GOP should have been doing all along: playing hardball and going for the jugular. It’s what the Rats have been doing, and the only effective way to counter them is to fight fire with fire. Quite frankly, Trump seems to be the only on with guts in the GOP right now, and quite frankly, his attacks are magnificent. He’s really going for the areas Obama is most vulnerable on. Hopefully, The Donald will increase his attacks, leaking out more and more damaging details, building to crescendo that Obama’s lapdog press won’t be able to neutralize.
Can you imagine President Trump taking on Congress and the rest of our enemies? Wow!
And your evidence for that is...?
Trump is also blames the Chinese for our debt when the blame belongs to Congress.
He’s going to be Obama’s Ross Perot if he runs.
“It’s almost more important for him to be focusing on Rezko. There’s reportedly enough there to look into bringing a felony charge against the golfer-in-chief, and thus is top contender for most provable article of impeachment.”
and waiting in the wings is Blago...hehehehehe
This is all easily explained.
You just tell the Press that it’s a Bone Headed moved when you collect bribes, and they stop asking questions. (You also have to hold a race card when you say it.)
The GOP was useless this last Presidential election. They did nothing to bring about Obama’s dealings. McInsane wanted a “clean” campaign and wanted to look like the white hat wearing good guy. The GOP overlooked all of Obama’s faults that could have put him away. They even muzzled Sarah Palin when she wanted to fight.
Trump is bringing this about and those GOP loyalists like Ann Coulter know this makes the GOP look bad so they want Trump to stop.
Bump for Trump!!!
“West aren’t the Team”
Maybe not Sarah, a patriotic American if there ever was one, but West sure speaks out and I’d like to see him do more of it and maybe see if he would be a major player.
Donald has a history of supporting democrats, from Hillary Clinton to just recently giving Rahm Emanuel money for his race to become mayor. He also has some dealings with Soros. Trump also said he’s willing to run as an independent. What does that tell you? If he’s willing to split the GOP ticket, and Obama will go on for a second term.
I disagree. The GOP establishment made fools of themselves...Trump is just bringing it to everybody’s attention.
Evidence? Jeez, we’re not in court, its just open discussion. Lighten up, Frances.
PMSL @ what Trump is up to these days. First he calls Rosie a fat pig, then this. Loving it.
OK; I misunderstood your point....sorry. So yes, I agree...he’s making them look bad in their timidity.

That’s why Juan McCain should step forward and demand to see Obama’s bona fodes for the office since McCain was subjected to scrutiny and numerous ballot challenges himself.
And they are protecting that share of the loot from each other, eying the loot others already have and, in general, acting exactly as the looters in the final portion of *Atlas Shrugged* behaved.
It tells me he is throwing down the gauntlet: it is me or Obama, take your pick. Given the list of losers that are lining up for the nomination, I will take the lessor of two evils. At least he won’t screw the country.
On the other hand, I will not be unhappy to see Obama win and Pelousy back in charge. It just gets us to the end of the line quicker. In other words, we know the destination, it is just how fast we get there with this inane dopes rinning the GOP.
