The "presidental" community organizer, slumlords, plight, dispare,and NO CHANGE

With 95% of the media kissing up and protecting Barack Obama and relentlessly going after Sarah Palin, it is refreshing to see that there is still some media outlets that remember what journalism actually is. This story was written June 27Th of this year by the Boston Globe and of course the rest of the media decided to turn a blind eye and not pick up on it. The connection between Tony Rezko and then former Illionis State Senator Barack Obama went totally unreported by the media for obviously reasons. Hillary briefly touched on it during the primaries and she was punished for it. Obama took offense to when Governor Palin belittled Obama's role as a"community organizer" at the Republican National Convention. Obama should be offended not at Palin but at himself. The low income housing development Grove Parc is in Barack Obama's old State Senate district. This exert if from the Boston Globe I thought should be highlighted to drive a point I want to make.

" Grove Parc and several other prominent failures were developed and managed by Obama's close friends and political supporters. Those people profited from the subsidies even as many of Obama's constituents suffered. Tenants lost their homes; surrounding neighborhoods were blighted".

So, as many of these homes went without repairs and became blighted and unsafe eye soars to the communities in Chicago, what was the "community organizer" doing to help the suffering of his constituents? Before Obama talks about the Governor of Alaska having experience or lack there of to be Vice President, maybe just maybe Barack Obama should question his own experience not only as a "community organizer" but as a "state senator". Obama failed the people that entrusted their votes to him in Chicago, so why should anyone entrust their vote to him on the national level as President? Normally a person has to do a good job in their current role to be promoted to the next level. How ironic is this? The people that Obama was suppose to be looking out for are living in deplorable conditions, yet Barack Obama is living high on the hog in his and his wife's million dollar mansion thanks to convicted slum lord Tony Rezko. The media doesn't want to touch none of that. I guess Sarah Palin's daughter is more important. They are more concerned about how "historic" his campaign is and how Sarah Palin is helping John McCain to ruin it. Let this go to show that just because the mainstream media decides to sit on a story to protect someone they like doesn't mean that the news doesn't get out in one form or the other view the "New Media".

Let me guess if these residents were to air their complaints on every media news outlet assuming anyone other than Fox News will air it the residents will be subject to tirades of sellouts!

Yup Barrack Obama assuming he's even aware of this unsightly development should fix this problem ASAP! However I will grudgingly give him the benefit of the doubt.

I don't see this as a smear campaign I just think that Barrack Obama if he is unaware of the plight of these residents should fix it!

If he is aware of the problem and has done nothing to remedy the predicament of the residents then imagine how much damage he could on a national level!

This video is rather telling if Barrack Obama knew of their plight and did nothing to resolve it!

If he is a historic candidate then I'm deeply saddened and concerned!

Obama is a crooked chicago poltician. He is secular and he is not ready to be president. He uses speeches to put out false promises and then he calls McCain bush.
he offers nothing.

Tony Rezko and his connections to Iraqi billionaire Nadhmi Auchi are almost certainly going to get to be far more vital of a campaign issue as September moves into October.

As John Fund recently wrote, "Rezko's trial raised a host of questions. Was Mr. Obama able to save $300,000 on the asking price of his house because Rezko's wife paid full price for the adjoining lot? How did Mrs. Rezko make a $125,000 down payment and obtain a $500,000 mortgage when financial records shown at the Rezko trial indicate she had a salary of only $37,000 and assets of $35,000? Records show her husband also had few assets at the time.

"Last April, the London Times revealed that Nadhmi Auchi, an Iraqi-born billionaire living in London, had loaned Mr. Rezko $3.5 million three weeks before the day the sale of the house and lot closed in June 2005. Mr. Auchi's office notes he was a business partner of Rezko but says he had "no involvement in or knowledge of" the property sale.

"Worse still concerning the Rezko-Auchi link is that, "In May 2004, the Pentagon's inspector general's office cited "significant and credible evidence" of involvement by Mr. Auchi's companies in the Oil for Food scandal, and in illicit smuggling of weapons to Saddam Hussein's regime. Because of the criminal probe, Mr. Auchi's travel visa to the U.S. was revoked in August 2004, even as Mr. Auchi denied all the allegations.

"According to prosecutors, in November 2005 Rezko was able to get two government officials from Illinois to appeal to the State Department to get the visa restored. Asked if anyone in his office was involved in such an appeal, Mr. Obama told the Chicago Sun-Times last March, "not that I know of."

To Tyrone:
What I'm writing about is not relevant to your latest blog. I would love to have e-mailed you this, but I have no idea how to send you a personal message within your blog. I wanted to bring your attention to the following:

Black hurricanes....

Well, it appears that one African-American has found yet something else to complain about. A black congresswoman, Sheila Jackson- Lee, reportedly complained that the names of hurricanes are all Caucasian sounding names.

She would prefer some names that reflect African-American culture
such as Chamiqua, Tanisha, Woeisha, Shaqueal, and Jamal.

I am NOT making this up!

She would also like the weather reports to be broadcast in 'language' that street people can understand because one of the problems that happened in New Orleans was, that black people couldn't understand
the seriousness of the situation, due to the racially biased language of the weather report.

I don't know about you, far as I'm concern, most blacks I've known have Caucasian names. Also, in this era of political correctness, if black names were to be used in identifying a hurricane, some would argue that it would be racist.

It was like years ago, the feminist movement complained that they were tired of giving hurricanes female names because it was sexist. They demanded a change; stop using female names and/or add male names.

anon, my email is wallst01@yahoo.com

anon"Sheila Jackson- Lee, reportedly complained that the names of hurricanes are all Caucasian sounding names She would prefer some names that reflect African-American culture

People like Lee should be in a psych ward somewhere and NOT as a representative of congress. I wonder did it ever occur to lee that "Katrina" is an African American name. Nothing more dangerous then a loonbat with the power to help make laws. It also goes to show how absolutely shallow Sheila Lee is. Hurricanes cause mass damage, flooding and death, yet all she is concerned about is what they are named? Oh brother.

anon "She would also like the weather reports to be broadcast in 'language' that street people can understand because one of the problems that happened in New Orleans was, that black people couldn't understand

I guess to Sheila Lee the though of the street people learning and understanding proper english would be considered racist I'm sure.

anon "I don't know about you, far as I'm concern, most blacks I've known have Caucasian names. Also, in this era of political correctness, if black names were to be used in identifying a hurricane, some would argue that it would be racist."

The irony in all of this is if all the future hurricanes were named with African American style names, then their will be blacks that will complain about that too. It's basically a no win situation. That's why it doesn't pay to try and please liberal loons in the first place.

Obama used Chicago to get where he always wanted, President of the USA. Obama is a "real" African American not 40 generations removed from West African sold by East African Muslims to Europeans.
Chicago has gotten no better. Obama didnt teach the blacks how to fish. He fished for them and they still look for fish to be given to them!
