Default Rumors Fly That Rezko is Talking To Feds

When the media is tired of Palin they can go right to this story.

cbs2chicago.com - Rumors Fly That Rezko's Talking To Feds

Quote:
CHICAGO (CBS) ― Convicted political fixer Antoin "Tony" Rezko has been quietly visiting Chicago's federal courthouse, setting off speculation that he may be spilling secrets to federal prosecutors in return for a lenient sentence.

Prosecutors investigating Gov. Rod Blagojevich's administration would plainly like to hear what Rezko knows, and there is plenty of incentive to talk.

One prominent defense attorney told CBS 2 Chief Correspondent Jay Levine, "I've heard 18 different ways that Rezko is talking."
Quote:
Attorneys with knowledge of the government's investigation of corruption in state government say they are convinced the key fundraiser for Blagojevich and Sen. Barack Obama is either talking or about to do so.

Two attorneys said Monday they and other lawyers have been contacted by prosecutors seeking to check information that only Rezko could have told them. Both attorneys spoke only on condition of anonymity, saying prosecutors have sought to keep such matters secret as part of the grand jury investigation.
Hopefully he is talking quickly ...

That's fine. I think Obama is, to use Joe Biden's word, clean.

He looks quite clean ... though his tie on debate night was a hack job.

Just "think', not sure, not positive. That's kind of out of character for you not to reject out of hand anything that might impact Obama negatively. Then again, it is Chicago politics which is one notch above Louisiana politics for its
unique ethical standards.....

Today's Chicago Tribune was all about the Gov. either being indicted or impeached. Hopefully, he'll be tried and convicted and keep the quota for Illinois Governors imprisoned.

Kind of an off shoot but what are voters thinking when they vote in Chicago? Or is there little to no hope? Chicago makes Providence, RI political history look grade school.

My uncle, who is a history major (Dr.) thinks Illinois is the second most corrupt state, to La. of course. It is blatant, from the top to the bottom. Who are you going to vote for, the current Gov. (D) is crooked, the former Ryan (R) is in prison. Something like 4 out of the last 7 have gone to prison. People always cry foul over the Kennedy election because of the voter fraud in the Chicago area. Had Nixon won, people would have cried foul over voter fraud done in Southern Ill. There is a columnist who has page two of the Trib. and it seems like everyday he is calling someone out. This week its pool boy (because he had a pool built by the city). Recently, on one of these huge storms, he had the city bring him a generator. Thus, he's been fired at least two times and guess what, the machine is still humming as he has another gig for the city. Hopeless, sure seems like it.

The mainstream media will never cover this story. Are you kidding me?? They are totally in the tank for Obama, whoring, shilling, and pimping for him shamelessly.

But fear not, Judgment Day approaches. This cess-pool cannot abide.

And the "Rev" Wright says: "God bless America??? NO!! God DAMN America!!
