    Mr. Obama wrote letters to city and state officials supporting efforts by Mr. Rezko and a partner to build apartments for the elderly with $14 million in government money, Then Rezco's wife helps Obama get ahold of property at a profit of roughly 9.5% on Rezco's investment when the profit should have been more like 30% for Rezco on the sale to Obama. Now if this is not a Quid Pro Quo, I want to know what is.

    Additionally, Obama was taking campaign contributions from Rezco for years and in the end had to give his contributions to charity. CHANGE! ya this really sounds like CHANGE......all you Obamamaniacs needs to pull your head out of the ground on this one.

      Obama didn't have to donate NEARLY as much money as the old white haired feeble dude.

      Additionally, this fool's talking tough in Georgia's defense to fool the idiot crowd who can't think for themselves....He has a paid Georgian loobyguy in his campaign, as well as the person who had a very substantial hand in orchestrating the deregulation of everything financial, which is the main reason banks and homes and oil speculation and what not are all screwed up. Yeah, the same guy who thinks we are all "whiners". Yeah, that's Mccain's main economic advisor.....DISTURBING.

    We know what happened the last time foreign policy was left to the "more experienced" second in command. This is not Change we can believe in. This is more of the SAME LOL

    ObAMA = OsAMA = ELITIST & a terrorist = God Damn America supporter / Terrorist supporter / criminal supporter (REZKO)
    Biden = BInlaDEN = EGOTIST

    McCain's houses were NOT purchased with 'honest money'' so it isn't suprising his comments about Obama's homes aren't honest wither.


    Cindy McCain's father and his brother began business with the Arizona mob. The Hensley brothers were tried and sentenced in the late 40's/early 50's for their underworld activity. Cindy's father never achieved entrance into the Arizona society world due to his illegal activities. The story of the Cindy McCain's family is well documented -- research it for yourself.


    No, John McCain's homes and vast wealth did NOT come from honest money.

    BTW, John McCain took a page from Hensley's playbook when it came to second marriages. Both he and Cindy's father were walking down the aisle before they divorced their first wives. Guess Cindy didn't mind what John was doing to Wife No. 1 since Dad did the same to his first wife. Mr. Hensley provided lavishly for Cindy while ignoring his elder daughter. (No, Cindy is not an only child!)

    The ad says Chicago power broker Tony Rezko got "political favors" including "$14 million from taxpayers." But there's no evidence of any connection to the Obama home purchase. The $14 million was to build apartments for low-income seniors.

    Obama wrote a letter supporting the "worthy" project, but both men say Rezko didn't ask for the letter.

    It says Rezko "purchased part of the property [Obama] couldn't afford." Rezko's wife did buy an adjoining tract but later sold the land at a profit. Obama paid market price for his home.

  • Posted By: rob2357 @ 08/24/2008 5:36:42 AM

    Obama was on the take and you know it.....some CHANGE.....the only CHANGE we are going to get is the CHANGE (2 nickles) left in our pockets after he takes more of our income in taxes....HELLO..... NEWS FLASH....DEMS AND REPUBS.......OUR COVERNMENT NEEDS TO CUT SPENDING.......only 16% of the federal budget is discretionary. Everyone says that Bush has spent all this money but the social welfare system colas and inflationary adjsutments to the fed employee growth that have compounded over the past eight years add up to more then any of Bush's initiatives including the cost of the war which any president would have had to spend (atleast for the afganistan portion). Come on....do you really believe that Obama can do all he's promising without raising taxes on EVERYONE? Why can't we just fire about 20% of the federal and state workforces? Oh yea the unions....and oh I forgot, it's the union's Teachers Pension Fund that was loaning the money to Rezco!!!!! See how the system works.... CHANGE INDEED!

  • Posted By: HolyRoller @ 08/23/2008 1:45:49 PM

    Fact Check somehow overlooked some vital data. So, being the helpful sort of guy, I'll lend a hand...........

    REZKO...convicted...awaiting sentence...Fed has no early release...most or all of his natural life.

    OBAMA...20 yr association...beneficiary of Tony's patronage.....endorser of Tony's slums...

    FITZGERALD...Fed Prosecutor....vowed to clean up Chicago....wanted Obama implicated during trial

    FEDERAL WITNESS PROTECTION PROGRAM......Hussein's head on Fitzgerald's mantle. Tony with family, new name and life....AND STILL ALIVE

    hmmmm.....anyone else see this coming?????

    Barack Hussein Obama II...aka...Barry Soetoro is a crook and a fraud.

    NOBAMA!!!

    • Posted By: dking312 @ 08/23/2008 2:23:53 PM

      Holy....U still on here posting contradictions of your previous posts. that's pretty sad.....I gave your hours to redeem yourself.

      Here's another point. How did Obama benefit exactly? The rezcos made a profit off of him you idiot.

      NO MORE STUPID/ SNEAKY PEOPLE IN THE WHITE HOUSE!!!

      Go Obama....& now, Go Biden too!

      • Posted By: HolyRoller @ 08/23/2008 3:31:33 PM

        They certainly did make a profit...a $14,000,000 profit. That is why good buddy Tony is in prison. And Hussein could well join him soon.

        Please tell...where have I contradicted myself???

        • Posted By: dking312 @ 08/24/2008 12:20:14 AM

          See how you just throw different facts in different places to try and make your made up point?
          OBAMA didn't give anyone any money....the 14 mil was granted to Rezco for a housing project that Obama wrote a letter saying how badly that type of low income housing was needed in that area. Rezco made a profit from their land purchase....no house on the land idiot.

          Now, I'd love telling you where you sound stupid. Yesterday, maybe the day before you posted this in response to some legal issue Mccain had. This is your typing, word for word....You can scroll back and see it for yourself.....

          >>Comment: your screen name is no trouble...guess that doesn't apply to research huh. If you would bother to, you would find that McCain did nothing illegal. He was scolded for his relationship,but found innocent of any wrong doing. It is a non-issue...you know the old saying..."beating a dead horse"

          A pathetic super phony who can't even keep his thoughts straight or what? Just like the right, what they do is NEVER so so bad, no matter how many people it destroys, as long as they are making money for themselves while doin it.
          Iraq war? phony, but it made them money, so they don't want to be prosecuted over it.

    Yet another example of liberal bias by Newsweak. How is your circulation doing?

    • Posted By: dking312 @ 08/23/2008 2:42:16 PM

      So, it's liberal bias cause it's the truth?

      Sean hannity and fake fox is the one with the bias.

      Bias is when you only tell the part of the story that benefits your point. This article takes all things into consideration.....gives you all details.

      I'll tell you what's biased. The Bush administration. They only like lies and secrecy, and that hand up Mccain's ass wants to continue that policy.

      • Posted By: HolyRoller @ 08/23/2008 3:49:51 PM

        Liberalism is a mental disease. It' main symptoms are strong emotion, to be viewed as a victim, and acomplete lack of ambition, coupled with an intense desire to be taken care of by a nanny state.

        NOBAMA!!!

        • Posted By: dking312 @ 08/24/2008 12:08:13 AM

          Let me correct you in a nice way. To be "liberal" I guess is to be "for the overall good of the masses".

          Screw a handout, noone asked to be bought. What is troubling to you I guess is that we like to include everyone, and build from the bottom up. Without the workers the company is ***, but the rich always seem to forget that and continue to demand excellence on the cheap.

        • Posted By: notroubleatall1963 @ 08/23/2008 6:07:11 PM

          Whereas YOU and YOUR KIND would much rather be "taken care of" by criminals who pose as goody-two-shoes (Tassled Loafer set) and who put profit before people every time. That makes you feel real "secure" I guess. The mega-millionaires in politics can totally be trusted to do the right thing, yeah, right. WERE YOU BORN YESTERDAY? Sure seems like it! ;-)

    Mccain talks about animals raping young women, bombing Iran (like it's a BIG ole joke!), killing people with cigarettes, & and his latest and greatest.....BRINGING BACK THE DRAFT.

    MOMS...I know I don't want my 10yr old picked to die.

    Biden has more military experiece that Mccains few hours....He didn't have to do anything strategic to be held captive.

    My 60 yr old uncle got kidnapped for money awhile back. They beat him horribly. BUT, I don't think that because of that he can now run my household's budget.

    It's funny and insulting that Mccain thinks talking tough and sending in young kids and calling them a military is such a great idea. That's his national security plan folks!

    • Posted By: HolyRoller @ 08/23/2008 3:41:37 PM

      Hussein defends throwing newborns in the trash. Hussein lets his own brother live in poverty stricken state of neglect. Hussein is friendly with admitted terrorists. Hussein spent 20 yrs in a Nation of Islam Temple. Hussein is involved with a Federally convicted swindler. Hussein was raised muslim and lied about it. Hussein is an admitted hard core junkie. Hussein has no real experience. Hussein wants American capitalism destroyed. Hussein wants to steal hard earned assets. I could go on, but I'll run out of space.

      Barry "Barack Hussein" Soetoro is a crook and a fraud. He is unelectable.

      McCain + Romney = Two Out-of-Touch Elitists whose only goal is to RUIN the USA for their own pocketbooks. The GOP leadership seems to always put Profit before People and it will be their downfall. They have such a piss-poor lineup of potential candidates they really have to scrape the barrell.

      Do you think under ordinary circumstances these subpar men would ever be in the race for the White House? Let me answer that with a resounding NO. The GOP is resuscitating the DREGS of its stale old WINE (whine) and coughing up what's leftover.

  • Posted By: notroubleatall1963 @ 08/23/2008 5:53:32 PM



    Who ARE these people who DEFEND criminals in the GOP so ardently? Who accuse Obama with the most outrageous lies in an effort to derail his election? What could possibly be motivating you? Could you be that despicable? Really????

    Do you think there might just be a connection here:

    Let's see, Bush Sr. in the 1980s brought us the huge Savings & Loan scandal, in which McCain and Neal Bush personally took part and likely stashed away some undeclared profits.

    Now we have had Bush Jr. ("W") in office these past eight years, culminating in - low and behold - a whopping Mortgage Crisis that impacts global banking systems and that is fast evolving into a huge credit crisis. We've sold our souls to China and have a symbiotic relationship with a "Communist" country (actually, it's evolving so fast into the United States of China, even modeling their own healthcare system after our broken one)... and we have McCain kow-towing the the Bushes in order to get elected by the neocon base that supported them.

    Fact is, McCain owes Bushes big-time - the old man Bush likely covered for him in the Keating Five scandal during his S&L days. So it's payback time, and McCain is singing from the same jailbait song sheet.

    Send all the CROOKS in the GOP to JAIL. Vote Obama-Biden this time and rescue the USA from the power of EEEVVVVIIIILLLLLL - the Axis of Evil is, in reality, the Bush-McCain-Romney trio of families --- THE MEGA-RICH RUINING THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA FOR THEIR OWN POWER AND PROFIT.

    "Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous" - it's a TV show that should be revived as an expose of this crooked TRIO of Republicans. Tacky, criminal, ruthless. Watch out - don't criticize 'em too much or you might get AUDITED by the IRS -- or knocked off somehow.

    PS - Romney speaks FRENCH??? What a super-Elitist... Every possible privilege in his education and his connections. Mr. Perfect. I guess it's okay if a Republican politician speaks fluent French, but god forbid a Democrat should be allowed to be admired for it. I thought the GOP hated the French, the Europeans and everybody else in the world except Americans. What gives?

    • Posted By: HolyRoller @ 08/23/2008 7:17:34 PM

      You are criticizing Romney for speaking French??? hahahaha.......The False One criticized Americans because they couldn't. You are a piece of work.

      NOBAMA!!!

      • Posted By: notroubleatall1963 @ 08/23/2008 10:33:22 PM

        No, dear, I'm criticizing the GOP who "swifboated" Kerry for speaking french - remember? They ridiculed him and called him an elitist.

        Now that Romney can parler francais, suddenly it's okay. Tres amusant, n'est-ce pas?

        Moi, je parle francais aussi. I am a francophile and an anglophile - I too grew up overseas in funny foreign countries and like to have US leadership in the White House that doesn't bungle the American reputation abroad. Kennedy was excellent in that regard. For decades after his untimely assassination, leaders and heads of state from around the world would ask for Teddy Kennedy if they were visiting the US. They'd often be more interested to speak with Teddy than with the incumbent Republican. Most of the time, they just did their duty.
        __________________________________________
        The "change" that this Obama-Biden ticket will bring will be not having MEGA-MILLIONAIRES RUINING OUR COUNTRY for the next four years. No more fascist infiltration of our agencies, by appointments of only the "Right" thinkers and firings of the rest....as happened in the Bush Administration recently.

        Mega-Millionaires and politics are not a good mix - too much temptation to jigger the system to their own profitable advantage.

        Bushes - the S&L Scandal during the 1980s (Bush Sr) and now the Mortgage and Credit Crisis of the New Millenium (bush Jr)... what will a McCain-Romney ticket bring: MORE OF THE SAME - MILLIONAIRES MANIPULATING WALL STREET, BIG BUSINESS AND THE MILITARY INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX so they can pocket the profits - there is not a single thought to the plight of the rest of Americans, you can be certain of that.

      Can you say, Nasty Liar? Old wolf in an Old sheep's clothing?

      How did Biden articulate what I've been thinking so well?

      A GOOD SOLDIER DOES NOT = A GREAT PRESIDENT.

      Different people, different line a work, different criteria for the abilities you need.

      Being 894th out of a class of 899 does not seem that impressive.

    tiredoflies: put down the Obama blowup doll for five seconds and use your brain to think this through. Rezko received support from Obama (Obama claims it was a "form letter." - yeah right). Rezko bought the adjacent lot which allowed Obama to buy the house. Rezko is a convicted felon who was under investigation. Obama knew he was under investigation but bought the house with him anyway. Obama later said that wasn't a good idea.

    If this was factcheck, it seems like a few facts were over looked. Resko did in fact, help Obama purchase his house. The deal would not have went through if Resko hadn't agreed to purchase the vacant lot beside Obama's mansion. Resko in turn sold the lot to Obama's wife, who in turned sold it later for a profit. This article makes out like Resko had nothing to do with Obama except a letter that Obama wrote. The facts are that Resko and Obama have had a long running relationship and Obama would not have been able to purchase the mansion he now lives in with his family, if it had not been for Resko's help. This is all public record....yet some how "factcheck" over looked the facts!
