Some Chicago Opinions About Rezko - Obama

The Rezko trial is capping off in Chicago. Remember, Rezko's the Obama friend who contributed thousands to his political campaigns and helped him buy a mansion. In the quid pro quo, politician Obama helped Rezko secure taypayer money to rehab homes in Chicago neighborhoods. Here's a sampling of commentary from the Chicago Tribune story published today:

Obama sure knows how to pick his friends...and accept financial favors from this particular one, Rezko, in the purchase of Obama's mansion. In questions of judgement, Obama rates an F-minus.

Did Obama pay enough to the jury to get Rezko off?

Rezko is looking for an Obama pardon. Clinton let his crooked friends off. Obama got over 200,000. Enough to get a pardon.

God help us. Obama will screw this country.

No problem with the story, but the guy was a co finance chairman and a chief fundraiser for Obama, also -- a detail that should have been in the story, imo.

Guilty as charged. Now on to Blagojevich, and Obama.

Just as soon as Obama gets the nod, you'll get your verdict.
I think these clowns honestly believe that the law cannot go after a presidential candidate.
I'm sure the files are just waiting to be signed and dated then Hillary can get back down to election business.

Obama is not now and never has been a leader in Illinois politics. He is nothing but a stooge. If this case is rigged it is not through any of his efforts.

Thank God this could soon be over. Who really cares about this story anyway?

Wishfull thinking is not a way to run a presidential campaign. If wishing he was involved in a corruption case, that's crazy !

I wonder if the state is investigating the millions in taxpayer moneys Rezko received for Chicago housing "rehabilitation", some of which was used to smooth political difficulties and pay back political favors.
