Exactly what we have here is an ACTUAL CRIME, no witch hunt. Conspiracy with the President elects team to gain soemthing for giving the Annointed One what he wanted #1 as the Senator from IO. WHO IS #1? Jesses Jackson Jr. is my guess. There is so much meat here its not even funny. Obama will have to be called to testify.... LOL....

Damn it kind of feels good to be on the the hammer side of the NAIL.... LOL

I really wish Drudge would read entire news stories before getting hysterical with a big red headline. The subpoenas are issued on the mutual bank/rezko wife deal, not the obama/rezko deal. The crimes occurred during the transaction between Mutual Bank and the purchase of the property by Rezko’s wife. The sale to Obama was after the fact and therefor a non-story.

Indeed! Not to mention that it's hardly "breaking news" material. The subpeona was issued in 2006. The report he's linked to is an article in the Washington Times from October.

Maybe he thought this was an opportunity to finally get the story noticed?

Drudge had it headlined in big bright letters for 15 minutes before he sidelined it to what it is now. Maybe something was leaked to him with the arrests today. Complain to Drudge not to me. I did not jump the shark.

We need the cleaners from ET to come down and clean up this filthy state I live in.

And we need to throw out the RINO running the Illinois GOP. No more country club republicans!!!!

I think us Illinois FReeepers need to find new leadership for this party, Andy McKenna is too busy at the golf course with the silver spoon shoved down his throat.

Since Andy McKenna took over as chief of the Illinois GOP. We lost every state office, lost seats in the IL House / Senate and US House / Senate.

We got Obama and the democrats are even more crooked then ever!!!

McKenna needs to go!!!

This is old news folks. Nothing breaking about it. Drudge is messing with us.

I think placed inappropriately at first, by accident as headline. Now correctly placed under a growing list of articles relating to today's arrest.

Weird. I just went to Drudge and it was still in huge red letters with no link.

There were arrest today by Obamas friends for corruption. Maybe more are coming and Drudge is aware of this. The land deal Obama did do appears to be quite illegal and maybe something has been leaked to Drudge. He has some interesting sources and Drudge helped impeach Clinton.

It is old news and Drudge is not messing with us, he is just a dipshit that doesn’t do his homework.

He didn’t even read the whole news article and even posted as his headline the “obama/rezko deal” when in fact it was the Mutual bank/Rezko’s wife deal. Obama purchased the home after the fact making this a non-story unless you think Rezko being a criminal is still newsworthy which it is not since his criminality is common knowledge.

Can Obama pardon himself?

How easy will it be for Obama and team to kill this investigation?

Headlines on Drudge. And as he points out, he gets more visits than the NY Times.

But let’s wait and see whether the MSM tries to cover this up again. CAN they cover it up? They’ll certainly try their very best. Or they’ll focus on the Blagojevitch angle and avoid mentioning Obama.

Not too many people have heard of Tony Rezko, actually. What did it get, about two days’ play in the news?

I too wish this had come down earlier but the US Attorney’s Office has a policy of not going public with political defendant cases 60 days before elections. Fitz did the same with the Libby case as I recall...

Maybe the Supremes are thinking long and hard this morning about America’s future.
