More Obama Cheating? Rezko Paying Off Mayors? Gary, IN to Chicago, IL - Distance: 32.25 miles, Estimated Driving Time: 43 minutes Having raised half a million dollars for Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich, Tony Rezko got the Governor to appoint Rezko's own men to the Teachers' Retirement System, among them Stuart Levine, now indicted. And Rezko got Allison S. Davis appointed to the Illinois State Board of Investment, in control of billions in state retirement funds. Although Davis has not been charged with wrongdoing, the feds are reportedly pressing a probe of that agency. Davis is currently the president of that State Board. Barack Obama was a Harvard Law student in 1990 when he interviewed for a job with Tony Rezko's slum-redevelopment firm. He didn't go directly into the Rezko company. But in 1993 Obama was hired by Allison S. Davis, whose law firm (Davis Miner Barnhill & Galland) represented Rezko's operations over the years, while Rezko raised cash for Obama's electoral campaigns. Davis became Rezko's personal financial partner in slum-redevelopment deals, which were then backed by State Senator Obama. In one of those deals, after both Obama and Davis had left the law firm, Obama wrote letters to state and city housing officials supporting the proposed Cottage View Terrace apartments, a project run by Tony Rezko and Allison S. Davis. The deal cost taxpayers $14 million and the partners got $855,000 in fees. Completed in 2002, the project is now managed by Davis's son Cullen Davis. The Chicago Sun-Times reported in 2007 that Cottage View Terrace was originally supposed to be managed by Davis's longtime business partner, William Moorehead, until Davis's son was substituted. Moorehead was sent to prison in 2007 for stealing more than $1 million from the public housing projects he managed, including two he co-owned with Allison S. Davis. - The University of Chicago and the CBOT - The Obama-Davis nexus also reflects the higher echelon Anglo-American financier oligarchy, that influences politics and culture through such power centers as the University of Chicago and the Chicago Board of Trade (CBOT). When Barack Obama ran for U.S. Congress against incumbent Rep. Bobby Rush in 2000, the Chicago Reader reported "whispers" that "Obama is being funded by a `Hyde Park mafia,' a cabal of University of Chicago types, and that there's an `Obama Project' masterminded by whites who want to push him up the political ladder." Obama was then a state senator and University of Chicago law lecturer. The district was 65% black, but included the rarified Hyde Park neighborhood, home of Obama and of his employer, the University of Chicago. The black community was markedly unfavorable to Obama's challenge against Rush, a former Black Panther, who defeated Obama 61-30 in the Democratic primary. The "Hyde Park Mafia" purportedly backing Obama's rise was centered in the University's campaign for school reform, along the lines of the Ford Foundation and British efforts to corral American slum residents into blind, self-defeating local politics. William Allison Davis, the African-American father of Obama's law boss Allison S. Davis, was the University of Chicago's "John Dewey Distinguished Service Professor"; he was a teacher in the Education Department from 1942 to 1978 and advisor until his death in 1983. Though the elder Davis was deeply associated with civil rights concerns, he was also deeply enmeshed in the London-Wall Street axis sinking its claws into African-American politics, education, and psychology. His mentor at the University of Chicago was anthropologist W. Lloyd Warner, an organizer of the "human relations" movement run through the Britain's notorious Tavistock Institute and largely financed by the Rockefeller family. The Rockefellers paid for much of William Allison Davis's own career, their largesse allowing him to study under eugenicist Julian Huxley in England. This University of Chicago gang was the policy base for the Saul Alinsky slum-herding crusades, which the young Barack Obama joined as a paid organizer in the 1980s. Obama moved the impoverished residents to fight around entirely local concerns, while the politics of the nation collapsed into the "conservative revolution." After getting his Harvard law degree, Obama came back to Chicago in the 1990s. He had met his wife Michelle while she was a member of Sidley Austin, the law firm for the financial oligarchs at CBOT, the Chicago Board of Trade. He interned under her direction in that firm in 1989 (a year before interviewing with Rezko). From 1996 on, Michelle Obama was an executive with the University of Chicago, at last rising in 2005 to vice president for community and external affairs at the University of Chicago Hospitals. Her husband was employed by the University, from 1993, until he ran for United States Senate in 2004, with help from Tony Rezko.

Corrupted Obama - The Antoin Rezko case "Not guilty" The use of this phrase isn't the only thing Barack Obama and Antoin Rezko have in common. Obama insists he's just gullible but we ought to give the Democratic presidential nominee more credit than that. But where's the 'change'? We've always had lying and corrupted politicians! Additional note: Obama has released his tax returns for 2006 ONLY and this was just the form; no attachments were released. He didn't release the 2007 one. His tax return forms from all his time in the Senate are not available to the public either. When Obama spokesperson, Bill Burton is asked about any pre-2006 or 2007 returns, he says he "will keep you posted." Some info about MIchelle's 2005 tax return: Her salary as an administrator at the "not-for-profit University of Chicago Hospitals" nearly tripled to $316,962, from $121,910 in 2005.

Rezko & Obama, Two Of A Kind? ad: Obama - Rezko Challenge CHICAGO - A day after Barack Obama sealed the Democratic nomination for president, a corruption scandal involving a fundraiser who helped bankroll his past campaigns resurfaced to slightly dampen the festivities. Chicago businessman Antoin "Tony" Rezko, 52, was convicted yesterday of fraud, money laundering and aiding and abetting bribery in a plot to squeeze illegal payoffs out of firms hoping to do business with the state. Republicans are already capitalizing on Rezko's ties to Obama, even though the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee is accused of no wrongdoing and his name was barely mentioned at trial.

Alan Keyes slams Obama for Rezko connection Do we know Barack Obama? Judicial Watch Announces List of Washington's "Ten Most Wanted Corrupt Politicians" for 2007: "... 8. Senator Barack Obama (D-IL): A "Dishonorable Mention" last year, Senator Obama moves onto the "ten most wanted" list in 2007. In 2006, it was discovered that Obama was involved in a suspicious real estate deal with an indicted political fundraiser, Antoin "Tony" Rezko. In 2007, more reports surfaced of deeper and suspicious business and political connections It was reported that just two months after he joined the Senate, Obama purchased $50,000 worth of stock in speculative companies whose major investors were his biggest campaign contributors. One of the companies was a biotech concern that benefited from legislation Obama pushed just two weeks after the senator purchased $5,000 of the company's shares. Obama was also nabbed conducting campaign business in his Senate office, a violation of federal law."

Obama - Fundraiser, Rezko Released From Jail on $8.5M Bond Antoin "Tony" Rezko will be allowed to go home for the first time since January after the judge in his fraud & corruption case agreed to release him on $8.5 million in cash and property. The decision of U.S. District Judge Amy St. Eve came after the judge questioned Rezko and property owners who will put up their homes for his release. She called the bond one of the highest she has seen at the Dirksen U.S. Courthouse. During the trial Stuart Levine, the prosecution's star witness, said Rezko and Obama were at a party Rezko threw at his Wilmette mansion on April 3, 2004, for Nadhmi Auchi, a controversial Iraqi-born billionaire who Rezko was trying to get to invest in a South Loop real-estate development. Auchi, now a citizen of the United Kingdom, has faced criminal charges in Europe. He also figured in the revocation of Rezko's bond early this year after attempting to wire him more than $3 million. Upon learning of that attempt, U.S. District Judge Amy St. Eve declared Rezko a flight risk and ordered him held in a federal jail in the Loop. The Rezko party in 2004 was designed to induce Auchi to pour money into the South Loop investment. Obama's presence at the party was not previously known. At the time, Obama was fresh off a surprise win in the Illinois Democratic primary for U.S. Senate and was riding a crest of national publicity.

Hillary Clinton's site exposes Rezko Obama Shocking Truth Shocking truth about Rezko in Chicago and Obama's yard. Patrick Fitzgerald and Sue St. Ann (judge) are gunning for Obama, making Ashcroft proud for appointing them. Hillary Clinton's website, Hillaryis44 is pushing out negative attacks on Obama, with hints that his ethics are as weak as Clintons. You be the judge.Local Chicago reporters grilled Obama on his relationship with Rezko, whose trial begins in Chicago today, and suggested that he was not transparent about their business dealings when the story first broke. Obama disputed this notion, arguing that he held a press conference in Chicago to discuss the issue. He called Rezko a friend and a supporter, but argued that charges against Rezko are unrelated to him. Tags: clinton hillary rezko obama tony fitzgerald patrick st. ann |
