It’s been a few days since Barack Hussein Obama announced his choice of running mate in the classic media blackout zone.  I figured the passage of time, in which my family and I undertook its annual end-of-summer minivacation getaway weekend…

I used to have a police friend who said one of the cornerstone axioms of investigation is:
“There is no such thing as a coincidence”
(h/t Mike Hartford)

No matter what help Barack Obama might get from Sen. Joseph Biden, his newly named vice presidential running mate won’t give Obama much cover on the Tony Rezko front,” Dave McKinney commented August 24, 2008, at the Chicago Sun-Times. …

Hope and Change? Sounds like this will change into Race baiting and Hate, not that there is anything news worthy in that.

Obama-Biden-Rezko ticket?

So, The Man In Black ask the question:

“Will the circle be unbroken
Bye and Bye Lord Bye and Bye
…”

(version by Johnny Cash and the Carter Family)

sooo, will we now get to hear greasy joe prattle on about “not the joesph cari he knew” too?

I have it from a good source that Biden has already been given his own bus, with monster wheels and tires. That way he can also take those that will no longer fit under Obama’s bus for lack of space. It comes with an operators manual and a specific list of reasons for insertion beneath said bus.

*eats*

Just sayin’………….

Wouldn’t it be ironic, after the houses ad, if Obama and Biden both had house scandals?

The question is, what inning are we in?

It wasn’t a “supporter” of Biden, it was his campaign manager in 1988 and one of his advisors early in his 2008 bid. Re-read the linked and quoted part again.

Your rhetoric is a little overheated here. The Obama-Rezko thing is real political scandal. But seriously, one of Biden’s supporters in Illinois… And some conspiracy speculation of that’s why Obama picked Biden. Come on.

Ya got that right. Peanuts, perhaps, but I want the question asked and answered and then the federal gift tax return filed that reports, under penalties of perjury, that he made a gift to the wife of his felon money man. And then we can ask, why did he do that? Down payment for a pardon? Repayment for something in the past?

Second, when is the press going to ask Obama for a copy of the federal gift tax return he’s filed reporting the taxable gift that Obama made to Rezko’s wife? Obama paid her $104,500 for a piece of property appraised at $40,500. It’s a taxable gift of $64,000 (ignoring annual exclusions). No ordinary course of business exception applies, and Obama cannot claim he made a bad deal–he had an appraisal. Why did a federal elected official make a $64,000 gift to the wife of one of his money men, who recently was convicted of federal crimes?

So this is the $64,000 question…
