"They are pressuring me to tell them the 'wrong' things that I supposedly know about Governor Blagojevich and Senator Obama," Rezko wrote St. Eve in an April bid to be released on bail during his trial. "I have never been party to any wrongdoing that involved the Governor or the Senator," Rezko continued. "I will never fabricate lies about anyone else for selfish purposes. I will take what comes my way, but I will never hurt innocent people."

I certainly glad that Tony Rezko has more integrity than those who've surmised that Barack Obama had criminal dealings with him in the first place. For all the seeming damage that the Rezko connection was going to cause the Senator, nothing remotely damaging has or ever will come from the relationship which Obama and Rezko had prior to his criminal investigation and conviction.

He's afraid if he told the truth then O would pop a cap in his ass.

Ah, the integrity of a convicted felon. Well, as long as he says it, it must be true.

Apparently Rezko and his attoryey can't even get their stories straight....

Rezko: "They are pressuring me to tell them the 'wrong' things that I supposedly know about Governor Blagojevich and Senator Obama,"

Duffy: "At no point has the government ever asked me a single question about Obama, or any wrongdoing involving Rezko and Obama."

But if he said Obama was knee deep in this crap, y'all would slobbering all over those words though, huh? THEN he'd have credibility.

HC...

I think there's a difference between Rezko and his attorney. Rezko obviously has had conversations with the Feds when his attorney wasn't present, or the attorney was speaking only for himself.

Ah, the integrity of a convicted felon. Well, as long as he says it, it must be true.

Compared to the integrity of YOU, who's shouted for months that Rezko would be the end of Obama. How's the crow taste?

By your measure then, the word of Norman Hsu isn't worth a plugged nickel either, so I guess Hillary must be implicated in his criminality too, right?

Rezko obviously has had conversations with the Feds when his attorney wasn't present, or the attorney was speaking only for himself.

Fair enough.. if Rezko had conversations with the feds without counsel, that is illegal isn't it?
Then I guess the attorney was only speaking for himself, though I don't know why he would think that relevant.

"if Rezko had conversations with the feds without counsel, that is illegal isn't it?"

I don't think it's actually illegal.
But it's definitely stupid.

I guess in this Post911 legal system we have, representation isn't necessarily a guarantee anymore...
Has Rezko been named an enemy combatant or something?

"Has Rezko been named an enemy combatant or something?"

LOL!

I think he can talk with whoever he wants to, but a lawyer will almost always tell a client to keep their yap shut unless something's been agreed to beforehand that prevents the client from walking into a bear trap.

-How's the crow taste?

Prolly not as bad as a Rev Wrong sandwich with Father Pfleger on the side.


-the word of Norman Hsu isn't worth a plugged nickel either, so I guess Hillary must be implicated in his criminality too, right?

Yes, it was prolly the fact that Hsu was Hil's chief political mentor, friend, and financier for 20 years, and helped buy her home with money he got from an Iraqi Food for Oil criminal named Audi.... oh, wait.... that was Obama and Rezko. Nevermind.

Its a wonderful feeling knowing that Obama has finally put a lid on the Clinton political ambitions at least for a while.

Its even better knowing that the American people who chose the Democratic nominee aren't swayed by the idiocy that you were Corky, and I hope the bile you spew burns your throat as much as it pains my eyes.

I guess its hard not to be bitter when the better candidate wins, but then you'll never understand that concept will you? Always the victim and never responsible for the outcome. Thank God the party dodged you lunatics trying to undermine its future by returning to the past.

roflmao!!

As per usual, TR gets all huffy and puffy when comnfronted with facts instead of the rhetoric of which he is so fond.

- bitter when the better candidate wins

You sound more bitter than any Hil fan I've heard.

According to the TR Directory of Winning and Losing, Big Brown didn't just lose the race last week, he was the worst horse on the track, roflmao, yet again.

-Thank God

Too bad atheists can't get their own candidate. eh? You know, one that doesn't talk to, "imaginary friends in the sky"?

-you lunatics

Meaning most of the Dem Party and half the voters in the primary.

Tony thinks he has a man-date with Obama. I have the audacity to hope he at least gets flowers.


And to think, you can't buy lucidity. Too bad.

comnfronted = comfortably confronted

It's so comforting to know that our resident Democrat Obama basher from Florida's vote won't make diddly squat difference this year?

I fully expect the blue hairs to hand Florida to McBush.

Ah, the integrity of a convicted felon. Well, as long as he says it, it must be true.

I love it. Corky is going to be butthurt about the nomination for the rest of his/her life.

It doesn't register in Corky's feeble mind that in corresponding to the judge, Rezko admitted his willingness to take whatever justice he had coming to him for his crimes. Hardly the stance of a myopic prevaricator such as Corky has turned out to be. Day after day Corky wrote that Rezko would be the end of Obama and that Democrats were idiotic for not seeing what wasn't there soley because his favored candidate was being trounced during the primaries.

In the end, what does he do? Refuse to admit that he was wrong all along and that he gleefully impugned the character of the man the Democratic Party chose to be their standard bearer in 2008. As Ness has surmised, Corky remains Hillary's favorite buttplug, and his stench permeates whatever modicum of fairness and decency he once held, and thats if his revealed persona wasn't his true nature the entire time.

Is it so hard to believe people can be friends without being partners in crime once one of them is shown to have committed crimes during the course of the friendship?

"Scroll down to 12:44 pm"

Good find.

Thank LILBRIT

She's the one who pointed it out. I just searched my way to the link.

I hope to god that after being elected Obama cleans house at justice and hires people who go after Rove, Cheney, Bush and other Republicans for a change.

What goes around may yet come around.

Yeah right --Obama can't find the Men's Room in the Senate--he is never there.

As for this --Wouldn't the Feds be in violation of ethic rules or be disbarred if they talked with Rezko without his attorney present?

This relationship along with Wright, Pflegar, Ayres, ACORN yada yada--go to show the complete lack of judgment Obama has.

He is unqualified to be POTUS.

McBush's associations with Charles Keating, Falwell, Hagee, and the like are just fine then, right?

Keating went to prison. His antics cost the U.S. taxpayers $250,000,000,000 (billion). McCain was with him all the way as Keating's 'boy' in the Senate. Hell, Keating got McCain started.

If Obama was elected-- the first pardon would be Rezko. Then Ham-ass and Iran Revolutionary Guard...

Oh, and McBush has now flip-flopped more than a NYC tourist on Miami Beach.

Murphy-
LOL. You're overplaying it, though. No one is that lobotomized and brainwashed.

'Both their parts' being McSame's and Bush 41's.

the first pardon

You're really a sick woman Murphy. But trust me on this - doctors won't help.

...well, with the exception of you, and maybe those who actually pay Rush Limbaugh for "special content", whoever those people are.

Patch, why are you so hateful towards woman?

You need to get that under control.

You're overplaying it, though. No one is that lobotomized and brainwashed.

Posted by BetelG at 2008-06-12 10:26 PM


Yeah? Why did Obama stay in that hateful church for 20 years?

He is lobotomized already and brainwashed. Obama believes in the same values as Wright. So does Michelle--she got him to that church in the first place.

I am old enough to know better--and not much older than Obama--he should know better--but it's all about political expendiency.

The man is a phoney and not to be trusted.

If folks would step outside the fish bowl-and do some serious critical thinking about Obama---they would agree...

So does Michelle--she got him to that church in the first place.

MURPHY

BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA !!

Obama hadn't even MET Michelle at that time.

Murphy, come on girl. Get your facts straight!

:-)

Well, looking from outside the fish bowl I'm seeing a 'suckerfish' named Murphy, who's taking all the right wing talking points as fact.

Rezko is no snitch.

Ah, the integrity of a convicted felon. Well, as long as he says it, it must be true.

What a sore loser you are, crocky. It's obvious you want Obama to fall since he had the temerity to beat your awful candidate.

Truly, you are a uniting presence for the democratic party, harriet.

I dont know about Obama but gov. blagojevich is a fuck.
Hope he gets a cell next to x-gov. Ryan.
it would be nice if Illinois would find some politicans that are not shitheads.
Wishful thinking

Neither Rezko nor Obama are responsible for the politicization of the Justice Dept. under Bush. Now, when accusations such as the ones that Rezko now makes about the federal prosecutor we are forced to consider the real possiblity that it is true. Here is a perfect example of why the Justice Dept. should not be used as an arm of a political party as it has been under Bush. I hope Obama wins the election and pardons Rezko just to piss off all the talking point repeaters.

roflmao!!

I'm not the one here praising the integrity of a convicted felon just because he taught Obama everything he knows about politics.

I hope Obama wins the election and pardons Rezko just to piss off all the talking point repeaters.

I know you don't really mean that, danni.... the pardon part, that is.
If he did what he was convicted of, you don't strike me as the type to ignore that for political advantage... or political antagonism for that matter.

Murphy, come on girl. Get your facts straight!

C'mon... Get the facts straight about Selma. About his granfather. About his mentor. About Pakistan. About Iran. About illegal immigration...

This AG seems to be no better than Gonzales.

This relationship along with Wright, Pflegar, Ayres, ACORN yada yada--go to show the complete lack of judgment Obama has.

Given that you support Bush and think he's so great, you have absolutely SHIT for credibility on this matter.

God Bless America when she does good.
God Damn America when she does evil.


Taken at face value, those two sentences seem logical.

Its a wonderful feeling knowing that Obama has finally put a lid on the Clinton political ambitions at least for a while.

everything you say remains to be seen.. Good to know that the Obama crowd are a bunch of vengeful shit sucking freaks that wish harm on their fellow dems but keep talking unity and change.. the more they "change" the more they stay the same..

Does it not even phase you fuckers of all the freaks in this guys closet?
