ugh.

So it appears that Tony "The Other Shoe" Rezko is willing to take the hit on these charges to keep Auchi (and Obama?) out of a full-blown defence presentation in this case.

Between the Rev Wrong and Mr Rezko, one has to believe that Barrack Obama is in both personality and policy the polar opposite of both of these long-time close associates and friends.

Maybe he is, but stretching credulity is becoming a habit with him.

With friends like these, who needs enemas?

-ugh

Auchi is known as a collector of politicians, owning more than a few in Britain and more in Europe and the Middle East.

I really want to believe Obama when I hear him speak, but WTF?

Were Edwards and Kucinich really such unacceptable choices in the face of this?

WTF?


Same here. He IS my VP choice, after all. ;^D

Policy-wise, Dennis the K and Elizabeth the Red Giant were my first choices. Go single-payer!

I had a scary thought about character...
Do you think that either he or Clinton will put all those tasty new expanded executive powers that Bush has unleashed on the world back in the box?

My god, who TF are these madmen?

Notice nobody is taking the bait on this story? LOL

Yes, where are all the usual suspects today?

Voting for Obama.

That's a relief.

At least they aren't here 'splaining how Obama is the polar opposite of Rezko on politics and Wright on race.

Corky - don't know what you do for a living, but my living is the law. There is only one reason that a defense team rests without putting on a case, its cause the prosecution has not proved theirs. That their star witness is a convicted liar doesn't help.

I am sorry that this trial which had you salivating for the "smoking gun" which was going to sink Obama turned out to be such a damp squib for you. Hillary must be crying in her boilermakers.

Go ahead, type some inane response that begins "ah Litl Britney" because you don't have the guts to admit that your "smoking gun" was firing blanks.

you don't have the guts to admit that your "smoking gun" was firing blanks.

Corky's "gun" has been firing blanks since his Domme cut off his balls.

But right on. You don't expose your defense if the burden of the prosecution is not met. Apparently it failed, and a guy like Rez has the bucks to hire the best, and that includes a specialist who does nothing but analyze the jury.

Pretty much takes the teeth out of the Hound...I mean...Hillary.

Corky, the only thing I think of when you type "LOL" is Lost Obama's Luggage.

you failed Corky admit it

"Before jurors left, St. Eve cautioned them to not read anything into the decision by Rezko's defense team not to put on a case. It is not unusual for criminal defendants to refrain from testifying or for their lawyers to call no witnesses.

St. Eve took under advisement a motion from Rezko's lawyers asking her to dismiss the charges against their client, arguing that the government's case had not met an even minimal burden of proof to find him guilty. Such motions also are routine at this phase of criminal trials and rarely are granted."

Remind me never to waste a retainer on you, Lil' Britney.

BWHAHAHAHA Too fucking funny.
