Barack Buys a House With Tony Rezko
Tony Rezko, Barack Obama. Dirty Chicago deals are back in the news. Why? Didn't we cover this before? Yes, we did, but that was before a whistleblower filed a federal lawsuit complaining about bad appraisals to cover what could have been a gift to Obama of up to $1 million dollars toward his nice house in Chicago.Washington Times
A former Illinois bank official, now claiming whistleblower status, says bank officials replaced a loan reappraisal that he prepared for a Chicago property that was purchased by the wife of now-convicted felon Tony Rezko, part of which was later sold to next-door neighbor Barack Obama.
In a complaint filed Thursday in the Circuit Court of Cook County, Kenneth J. Connor said that his reappraisal of Rita Rezko's property was replaced with a higher one and that he was fired when he questioned the document.
...
The complaint said Mutual Bank officials could be guilty of making false statements, willfully overvaluing property, bank fraud, witness retaliation, willful violation of a lawful subpoena, FDIC violations, and state banking regulations.
I think Joe the Plumber knows how you feel, Mr. Connor. You may have been one of the first working stiff to get run over by the Obama bus, but you certainly weren't the last.
So far Obama has admitted only that this was a mistake of appearance only and as far as he knows, everything was above board and ethical.
PD toolbar!Here's timeline based on the TPMMuckraker from March.
Back in 2004, the home's owner put both parcels on the market. There was no fence between the two properties, since the undeveloped land served as the house's side yard, but the properties were listed separately.Ed. Note, New information from the Washington Times article above, we now know that it was at this point that Ken Connor called the $625,000 price overvalued, and that's where the $40k low appraisal came from.
In January of 2005, the Obamas made three successive bids on the home, which had been listed at $1.95 million. ...Obama has said that he didn't purchase the side yard because he could not afford it.
About how Rezko came to own the sideyard...
...Last month, an Obama spokesman divulged more: that at some point before the purchase, which closed in June of 2005, Obama and Rezko had toured the property together "because Rezko was a real-estate developer in the area" and Obama wanted his opinion. The spokesman could not specify when, exactly, this tour had occurred -- before Obama had made successive bids on the home in January of 2005, or after.
It's not clear when Rezko bid on the property, but Obama has said that the seller accepted Rezko's bid on the yard before accepting Obama's bid on the house.
Both Obama and Michael Sreenan, Rezko's former attorney who now owns the adjoining lot, have said that at least one other party bid on the yard, as an explanation for why Rezko ultimately paid the seller's asking price, $625,000. The burning question, of course, is whether Rezko was doing Obama a favor by buying the side lot at the asking price. Though the seller, via the campaign, has corroborated other details about the purchase, he has not confirmed that there were other bids on the lot.
...
By June of 2005, when the purchases did close, Rezko's ethical and legal troubles had begun unraveling on the pages of the city's major newspapers. Just a month before, The Chicago Tribune had run a major profile of Rezko and his many entanglements, including the fact that he'd been subpoenaed as part of a sprawling corruption probe of the state government.
...
Obama has said that he approached Rezko personally in January of 2006 about buying some of the adjacent lot. To set the price for the 1,500-square-foot strip, which was one-sixth of the entire lot, Obama hired a firm to appraise its value. When that appraisal came in at $40,500, Obama says he judged it too low for appearance's sake and instead set the price at $104,500, which was one-sixth of the price Rezko had paid for the entire lot. There's been no suggestion that Rezko actually negotiated with Obama on the price. In any case, he accepted.
Ed. Note: October of 2006 matches up with this in the Washington Times article:
Rezko's rapidly deteriorating situation might explain Obama's extra caution. Since its profile of Rezko the previous May, the Tribune had also brought word (as you can see on our timeline) that Rezko had been subpoenaed on a number of other matters, all pertaining to U.S. Attorney Patrick Fitzgerald's investigation of influence-buying, cronyism, and extortion in Gov. Rod Blagojevich's (D) government. It was increasingly clear that he was of central interest to prosecutors. He was finally indicted in October of 2006.
Later, the complaint states, Mr. Connor observed that his lower appraisal was not in the Rezko file and that he notified his supervisors that it had been replaced. He said, according to the complaint, the new file had been reviewed by the FBI and "if the FBI were to ask me about such matters, I would tell them the truth. I never rescinded my original findings."
You bet it will. Again my acid test on October surprises is why didn't this come up when Hillary needed it to? The answer here is that Hillary tried, but she didn't have the whistleblower. Obviously this could not come at a worse time for the senator from Illinois.
Though Obama's name may come up at the trial, since Rezko allegedly made illegal "straw" contributions (via intermediaries) to Obama in addition to a number of other politicians, he is expected to be only a peripheral player. As The Los Angeles Times puts it this morning, Obama will be in "the background." But unfortunately for Obama, Rezko is also certain to be in the background of his campaign through November.
The worst case scenario here for Obama is that this appears to be a favor or gift from Rezko of up to at least $300k but possibly up to a cool million in that he gets a house for that much less than the original asking price. This favor circumvents campaign finance laws, federal gift taxes, etc. If it is a gift, it is likely illegal and definitely unethical. Note that the side lot that Obama does not own is currently still vacant and possibly unbuildable.
And what could Rezko have possibly gotten from Obama in return. Well, possibly quite a lot, including $14 million for a senior citizens center project. (long before the house deal). Caution is warranted, full proof and links to Obama are not definite. But this deal has always smelled like there was a rat somewhere, and now an ordinary appraiser says so too. In a federal lawsuit. As Drudge says, developing...

This will be brushed off like everything else about Obama is.
If people won't take seriously the connections to Wright, Ayers, and Farrakhan, they won't even give a second to think about Rezko.
Obama is as dirty as they come.

Isnt it amazing how these people come out of the woodwork at this time. I would be willing to bet if McCain was winning this thing you would not have heard from this guy.

patchy,
You are so right!
All of this info. about Obama has been out there but since the lefty lib press and media have been trying to get Obama elected, they aren't reporting it. They won't report anyhing even close to negative about him!
There is so much! The list is overwhelming!
Hillary Clinton tried to get some of it out during the primaries. The DNC put her under a gag order. The DNC was horrible to Hillary! She should be the candidate! She was robbed of the nomination! I don't believe it was on the up and up!
Obama is crooked!
The bigger part of the Rezko story is the $$$ millions Obama helped him secure in federal investment to clean up and build affordable housing for low income people on the south side of Chicago. Rezko is in jail because of his fraudulant use of the funds, but what about Obama? He contnued to help Rezko get money even after he was being investigated for criminal activity.
I hope if Obama gets charged with breaking the law, it happens before the election! It is a disgrace we have a candidate with so many shady dealings and shady associations!

If you liked Mitt Romney, as did I, you should vote for McCain.
It is almost certain that McCain will appoint Romney to his Cabinet. Romney would be perfect. He is very bright, understands the economy and has been highly successful with everything he has ever done!
McCain will have the best Cabinet in history. That is why I feel so certain he is our best chance to get this economy back on track.
I hope you reconsider and vote for McCain!
Don't hate the messenger. Obama has done everything to himself. He is so smug and thinks he's above the law. It's catching up with him.

Wake up America!
It will be 4 years of doom if the three SOCIALIST PIGS OBAMA-PELOSI-REID take control of America. They will raise taxes and spend it all on themselves, their pet projects, etc. They will take control of Americans - turning it into a Socialist/Marxist country.
For all you middle class people who believe you are going to get a tax cut (I'm laughing) be ready to get thrown under the bus - OBAMA,PELOSI and REID will increase your taxes! THEY need to raise "everyone's" taxes to pay for OBAMA'S and their outrageous spending plans.
OBAMA has a great track record of not keeping his word (basically a LIAR) and throwing anyone, out of political expediency, under the bus (OPPORTUNIST) who gets in his way. As they say..."A man is only as good as his word."
OBAMA is all about killing the AMERICAN DREAM, killing jobs and the economy by taxing "micro" businesses (which is what $250,000 is) and "small" businesses (those that employ 50 - 500 with revenues of $750,000 - $33 million - Small Business Association criteria). Small businesses create many jobs and provided growth for America. OBAMA's tax increase policy will kill "jobs" (it is a four letter word) and kill our economy. Using our taxes to "give" to others who don't make enough to be taxed is “redistribution of wealth”, "WELFARE" and an extreme "SOCIALIST and MARXIST" philosophy. There will be no incentive to be successful or for that matter to work.
All of you who are from various foreign countries that are here in America or trying to get here to live the "American Dream," the joke will be on you if OBAMA becomes president. He is not your friend!
OBAMA'S current and past judgments and alliances are also very important and reflects how he will handle America's foreign and domestic issues.
Connect the dots...ACORN funded by Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac (which gave OBAMA- 2nd highest contribution in return for voting (along with PELOSI-REID-DEMS) against regulation and reform of subprime loans - ACORN threatened lenders to do subprime loans); Ayres (their community organizing foundation gave ACORN funding; OBAMA's campaign gave ACORN another $800,000 for voter registration "get out the vote" now being investigated in approx. 14 states;
AYERS mentored OBAMA on "community organizing" and inspired him to teach Alinsky's radicalism to the youth of America. Their foundation and organizations donated millions to "community radical organizations" to teach radicalism instead of providing direct funding to the schools that need the money. OBAMA also taught ACORN and community organizations to pass on radical community organizing methods and philosophies. OBAMA directed funding to Ayres projects.
Then there's Rezko (slumlord, convicted felon, funded OBAMA, arranged a good deal for Obama's multimillion dollar home), Rev. Wright (20 years of hating America and white people), Father Pfleger, etc. It's all too much. OBAMA has been hiding, dodging and flat out lying about all his alliances. The liberal left wing biased "in the tank for Obama" MEDIA (MSNBC, NBC, CBS, CNN, ABC, LA Times, NY Times, etc.) are purposely not reporting what they know and or will not do anything that opens OBAMA for anything negative. They are not looking out for you. Their job is to investigate and report, not take sides. Journalism is dead! They are not to be trusted.
All you young college students, OBAMA (and his radical community organizing philosophy) has purposely targeted you from the beginning. He believes you are all still young enough to be gullible, impressionable, and most important of all, you all like being part of the "cool" people. For your sake..."coolness" is not the reality of your future. Don't get sucked in!
When you work hard to make money (maybe have your own company in the future), it will not be "cool" when the fruits of your labor is taken from you to be given to someone else. Trust me it will piss you off! And all that money and time you'll spend in and for college (maybe even going into debt yourself or your parents) only to come out and be told that after $200,000, your money will support others and that it is "good"... Trust me, it will piss the sh_t out of you. You can be generous, donate, and volunteer to help others, without having to be told by the gov't "pay up." - again it will piss you off. So the OBAMA plan for your future is not "cool." Think before you act! Step away from the hype and think thing through clearly with an open mind and heart and you will see the truth clearly.
I cannot believe so many are blinded and brainwashed by OBAMA and his propagandas.
Everyone please, take your blinders off and see the truth, it's there... you just have to be open for it.

I can tell you, as a former Hillary supporter, and Illinois resident, in no uncertain terms, that there was nothing to this supposed "shady deal". If there was anything improper that occurred here, is was of an exremely technical nature. Dave mentioned that Hillary couldn't get anyone to look at it during the primary, well that's just wrong. Here in Chicago, I can assure you, it was looked at VERY closely, and there was no evidence that Obama did anyhting wrong, or was shady in any way, and that's why Hillary couldn't get any traction with it. I also find it curious that this "whistleblower" just happens to come out of the woodwork now. I suppose the next thing we'll find out is that the "whistleblower" isn't really named Kenneth J. Connor, isn't really a banking official, and was never really fired. Sounds ludicrous, I know, but then again, we've seen that happen before now haven't we?

The Obama camp is taking the high road. When Obama's connection with Ayers was first mentioned, they could have countered with McCain's connection with E. Gordon Liddy of Watergate fame, but they didn't. When Obama's connection with A.C.O.R.N. was first mentioned, they could have brought up the fact that McCain was a keynote speaker at one of A.C.O.R.N.'s event back in 2006, but they didn't. Check it out; seems that Ayers=Liddy and A.C.O.R.N. is a tossup!

2nd Lawsuit Filed Re: Obama’s Birth Certificate
Press Release Seattle WA. 10/9/2008 — Steven Marquis, a resident of Fall City WA today filed suit in Washington State Superior Court against Secretary of State Sam Reed demanding verification of Barack
Obama’s citizenship status.
The complaint seeks specifically that the office of the Washington Secretary of State verify and certify that Mr. Obama is or is not a “natural born” citizen by producing original or certified verifiable official documents. The lawsuit argues that this
certification should take place before the election to preclude a constitutional crisis and likely civil unrest should such certification, after the election, prove that Mr. Obama was not qualified for office.
The Complaint argues that the Secretary of State has the authority and duty to not only certify the voters but also and most importantly the candidates and in so doing prevent the wholesale
disenfranchisement of voters who would had had an opportunity to choose from qualified candidates had the certification preceded the election process.
At this point, Mr. Obama has not allowed independent or official access to his birth records nor supporting hospital records. The Hawaii Health Department has violated Federal law by ignoring formal Freedom of Information requests for the same. Due to the facts and numerous other allegations that would challenge Mr. Obama’s fundamental qualifications for office, a Federal lawsuit was filed and is currently being heard in District Court, Pennsylvania.
Mr. Obama failed to respond to the District Court’s request to produce or allow access to the official documents (should they exist) and instead filed a motion to dismiss arguing the Plaintiff had no
“standing” or right to know. This non-response as of 9/24/2008 in Federal court casts doubt on the veracity of the electoral system and is the principal reason for this lawsuit. The late entry of this suit is due in principal part to Mr. Obama’s delay and subsequent non response to reasonable request for valid certificates. Multiple requests for early certification to the Office of the Secretary of State has been rejected.
[clarification: The district court process itself demands a response from Mr. Obama. When a complaint is filed, the defendant has an opportunity to respond to the judge regarding the plaintiffs request
for a preliminary injunction. Obama did respond, but not with the requested documentation, not even minimally so. He responded with a motion for dismissal based on “standing” rather than the merits
of the case]

So it is ethical to fire someone for questioning why the appraisal of a home was changed to more than it was worth? How about seeing why two people on barry's campaign staff were over paid 101 million dollars, ended up paying 3 million in fines and now you begin to see why barry is receiving all these contributions. WE HAD CHANGE 4 YEARS AGO AND FANNIE AND FREDDY GOT FLEECED. The economy got tanked because of the democrats taking over and mismanging and stealing funds. America is turning into Amerika. Imagine the hell we will live in under barry, anyone who questions him will be labled a racist.

Sorry Dave, This issue did get worked over during the primary Obama admitted that the deal for the adjoining property was probably not the smartest thing ha ever did, but it did not involve any wrong doing.
Obama paid very near the asking price for the home, and it was a price that any realtor will admit was in line for a house of its type in the neighborhood.
Anyone can file a lawsuit, and it can be kept alive for a little while,this is just another shot in the dark to connect Obama to something he didn't do
