Tariq is listed on opensecrets.org as a bundler:

$50,000 $100,000 Siddiqui, Tariq Chicago IL

http://www.opensecrets.org/pres08/bundlers.php?id=N00009638

Note that Pritzker is also listed. She is Obama’s campaign manager and owns the Hyatt hotel in which the ‘coming together’ will be w I’manutjob and to which the demonstration that is to be helf in front of dis-invited Sarah Palin.
$200,000 $500,000 Pritzker, Penny Chicago IL Global Hyatt 70,700

She also had ties to a failed bank:

For the Pritzker family of Chicago, the 2001 collapse of subprime-mortgage lender Superior Bank was an embarrassing failure in a corner of their giant business empire.

Billionaire Penny Pritzker helped run Hinsdale, Ill.-based Superior, overseeing her family’s 50% ownership stake. She now serves as Barack Obama’s national campaign-finance chairwoman, which means her banking past could prove to be an embarrassment to her — and perhaps to the campaign.

Apparently, Valerie chairs (or chaired) the board for the U of C Med Center where Michelle My Belle got her cushy job:

U of C shunning poor patients? (Michelle Obama, Axelrod and Rezko all involved)

Sen. Barack Obama’s wife and three close advisers have been involved with a program at the University of Chicago Medical Center that steers patients who don’t have private insurance — primarily poor, black people — to other health care facilities.

Thanks for posting that.

Jarrett is also the CEO of Habitat, a real estate company and an old crony of the Mayor.

All the big bundlers are the same folks who are on the Chicago 2016 Olympic committee.

Word on the street is if Obama clinches the presidency, Chicago is a shoe-in for the Olympics. $$$$$

Is it possible that MOHAMMAD TARIQ SIDDIQUI, is related to Aafia Siddiqui, the woman arrested for attempting to kill United States officers in Afghanistan?

I am wondering if the bombing of the Marriott had anything to do with the Siddiquis.

I think this typifies the conduct of Tariq Siddiqi. I have been investigating Siddiqi for the past few years and slowly and slowly are obtaining the facts and unraveling the fraud. Unlike Salman Ibrahim and Sunrise Equities disaster, the Feds go after the big boys but the smaller guys who scam money go under the radar. As I have a personal interest in finding all the facts to present to the proper authorities (hoping they wont go ignored) it has become very clear the Tariq Siddiqui or Siddiqi and Salman Ibrahim and Sunrise Equities were working together. In light of the recent Broadway Bank shut down, it has been even more clear that there are many people involved, including our Illinois government officials who seem to be involved in some corruption. It is a pretty well known fact that Tariq Siddiqi and Treasurer Alexi Giannoulias have known each other for quite some time. And the expansion of Tariq Siddiqi’s scam was because Alexi funded his projects when most banks would have turned it down. It is sad to see that Alexi blames Broadway Banks downfall on the economy when the Broadway Bank and Alexi’s own careless and greed caused it which may or may not be fraudulent. Siddiqi had many accomplices, he had sham-buyers, attorneys, realtors, appraisers, architects, bankers and many more that he either forced to work with him or got paid well. I know several people who gave about $50-100,000 to Siddiqi for a Sunrise type scheme and then threatened them if they ever took any legal action. I know one person that was investigating Siddiqi that just happened to be beaten up in his own home. Too many coincidences, i think not. Here are some examples that I have found.
- There are buyers for Siddiqi’s condo projects where the same buyers buy condo units in multiple properties, if not multiple units in the same development and go into foreclosure immediately.
- Siddiqi takes the proceeds and hides them in different accounts accounting at a expense for his Homes 4 You, Inc. company stating that it is a payment towards work and investors are told that the development failed while Siddiqi pockets a large sum of money from each deal, approximately $50-100k.
- Siddiqi’s Attorney, Charles Levy and many others get Attorney Fees of $100,000 or more from each closing. That is pretty outrageous fees for a closing.
- Most condos that are sold are not even finished and looks like someone just walked around with a hammer and nails to show that somehing happened.
- Siddiqi strips the equity of a new property that he has gotten to payoff older properties to continue his scam and stay good with banks.
- There are letters with Siddiqi, Broadway bank, sunrise equities and salman ibrahim as recent as 1-2 months before Salman Ibrahim disappeared trying to broker some deal.

Needless, to say, the list goes on and on. Court records show that almost all of Siddiqi’s properties are in foreclosure and all the honest investors are screwed. Then he gets these unscrupulous lawyers, like Charles Levy, Robert Habib, Rakesh Khanna of Weissberg and Associates who are all part of the scam and keeping Siddiqi alive by hiding funds for them in Client Trust Accounts.

Some have sad that Siddiqi’s actions are like the Mafia....He thinks he is above it all and is untouchable.

http://www.volnation.com/forum/politics/69344-crooks-criminals-frauds.html

from your link:

Ibrahim is alleged to have overstayed his student visa
in the 1980’s, so for a time he may have been an illegal
alien. He is said to have married an American citizen
circa 2003-2004, allegedly so he could stay in the US
legally. A brother, Imran, was deported near the time of
that marriage for overstaying his visa. Prior to marrying
the American woman, however, Ibrahim was reportedly
already married in Pakistan. His first wife, a Pakistani,
followed him to the US sometime in the late 1980s, and
always wore a full burka in public. That first wife is
reported to have left the US in late July or early August
of 2008, just weeks before Ibrahim and fellow Sunrise
Equities officers went missing.

SALMAN AFTAB is in three of the Obama ribbon-cutting
photos. He wore a dark gray or navy suit (bad camera
flash) with an adhesive nametag on his right lapel, and
black tie. Aftab has multiple arrests on his record,
including one in early October 2008 for aggravated
assault and battery. Aftab ran unsuccessfully for the
Chicago City Council in Chicago’s 50th Ward against
incumbent Bernie Stone in 2007. In his IVI-IPO Chicago
Aldermanic Questionnaire, Aftab listed “Finance
Committee Senator Barack Obama for United States
Senator” as one of his past “activities for other
candidates.” (He was a $2,000 donor to Obama for
Illinois in 2004.)


It all just gets worse and worse, doesn’t it? Turn over another rock and there’s a dark, murky THING under it...

Yes! Filth and vermin running so wide
and so deep, it’s incalculable; and so MO’s
brother, Craig Robinson, is now out sweeping
the country on his book tour for “A Game of
Character,” speaking glowingly for weeks ad
nauseaum about the ‘greatness’ of his despotic
brother-in-law.

Craig Robinson set to dominate the airwaves

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

***FYI

Jack Cashill, American Thinker writer who’s done so
many articles about -0, Ayers, Hawaii/family background
info, etc. is on CSPAN2 NOW .. his book, “Popes and
Bankers.”

http://cspan.org/Watch/C-SPAN2.aspx

or here

http://cspan.org/Watch/C-SPAN2_wm.aspx

I’m hoping that maybe someone will ask him a
-0 question in the Q&A.
