One-degree of separation: Obama and the Republican attack machine

A March 28, 2008, OpEdNews six-page article by columnist and investigative journalist Evelyn Pringle—"the first in a series that will give the details of Obama's rise to fame"—pointed out the obvious:

"The most trusted leaders of the Democratic party, such as John Kerry and Ted Kennedy, ought to be ashamed of themselves for supporting Barack Obama. With use of the internet, a fifth grader could connect the dots to show a picture of a guy who was picked up in college and carried up the political latter by a corrupt gang of influence peddlers.

John McCain is just drooling waiting for Obama to become the nominee so that he can come out with the trail of dirt that the Democratic party is too afraid to reveal this late in the in the game. If nominated, Obama will not survive a month when faced with the Republican attack machine.

If he becomes the nominee, the web of corruption leading to Obama's rise to power that this investigative journalist was able to untangle in less than three weeks, will be front page news right up until election day, handing the Republicans their only chance in hell of winning the White House.

Instead of the leaders of the Democratic party doing their homework, a small group of investigative reporters in Chicago will be credited with exposing the corrupt backbone of political career and the mainstream media need only follow their lead if the Democrats hold him out to be a viable candidate.

The trail of corruption involving the people raising money for Obama's political career stretches from the city of Chicago to the Illinois tollway to the O'Hare airport all the way over to Iraq. And testimony in Rezko's corruption trial reveals that an equal number of Democrat and Republican crooks benefited from all the moneymaking schemes.

Rezko is not a Democrat; he's an equal opportunity profiteer. He supported President George Bush and attended a Christmas party at the White House in December 2003, at the same time that he was a top fundraiser for Obama's US Senate campaign.


How could I not post this...Rezko/Obama friendship/business/personal deals not conducive to winning the WH. really.

1. The Repuke Slime Machine is just waiting to pounce

[indimuse]

2. From all angles.

WE have seen ZERO.

[Skidmore]

5. The Republican slime machine has already commenced pouncing on Obama

in concert with the Clinton campaign. There is only one campaign that appears to have forged a true alliance with the RW media element of that party. Hillary has openly consorted with Scaife and Murdoch. The pouncing has been undertaken, and Hillary may wind up with fleas.

[leftofcool]

6. They aint through yet...Rezko, Khalidi and others still to come

[Window]

51. LOL! "They aint through yet..." And we haven't even begun to get in their ass.

[anamandujano]

8. Yes, Hillary has been Obama's mentor and has been giving him bad advise

for years and years.

What a sucker he was to listen to her. He is the poster child for bad judgment.

[VolcanoJen]

36. With Democrats like this....

... who needs Republicans?

:eyes:

[joshcryer]

3. Direct link to the article. Wonder if they'll start trashing this writer next.

[cali]

4. you reall;y love right wing slime sites

you're constantly posting links to them to bolster your viewpoint. And personally, I think; Obama is far better able to deal with attacks than Hilly, who had very limited success dealing with right wing attacks in the past, despite the ridiculous claims of her devotees. Obama has teflon. Hilly? None. Zero. Everythiing sticks to that poor woman. And oh, I remember how absolutely sure you were that Wright would do in Obama in the primary. Didn't work out that way now did it?

[leftofcool]

7. Teflon?

BWHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaa!

[anamandujano]

10. That laughter is infectious.

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[indimuse]

20. i'm not touching that one!

:rofl:

[cali]

29. yeah, Wright really did Obama in like you hillbots avidly

predicted. Oops. Not. Tough shit for you guys.

:rofl:

[Cooley Hurd]

12. ...and they have the Tezla video ready should Cinton, by a miracle, win the nom...

There's NO way that Senator Clinton can survive ANY election after THAT whopper was exposed...

I pray we, in NY, have someone else queued up in 2012 for the US Senate, because she gave them, on a platter, the PERFECT campaign commercial.:(

[leftofcool]

14. But you candidate can stand ties to Khalidi

[Cooley Hurd]

19. One problem... you're talking out of your bum...

There are NO ties to Khalidi. Prove it, contact the US Atty's office and get back to me, Sparky.:rofl:

[leftofcool]

31. What ever you say........does it matter to the slime machine if its true nor not?

[Cooley Hurd]

34. Only if fellow democrats like yourself keep propagating lies...

:D

Oh, this is WAY too easy.:D

[leftofcool]

38. Sticking your head in the sand serves no purpose

you are better served and will serve your candidate better if you try to start fighting this now

[Cooley Hurd]

43. Hey... it's your baby. Please contact every newspaper (Scaife-owned)...

...and every Cable News Network (FoxNews)!

I'm sure SOMEONE will listen to your rantings.:rofl:

[knight_of_the_star]

24. You Fail

[indimuse]

30. oh, whata cute bird..

..wink.

[knight_of_the_star]

45. Why thank you

although the cat looks like its ready to kill something ;)

[joshcryer]

25. I was wondering when the trashing would begin, but at least it's not against Evelyn Pringle.

But it's only a matter of time before Evelyn Pringle is trashed to hell and back.

[blm]

9. Ms. Pringle - who the FUCK do you think Jackson Stephens was to the Clintons?

No HONEST journalist would forget BCCI and the deep-sixing of ALL its outstanding matters throughout the 90s that protected and benefitted those most involved - GHWBush, Jackson Stephens, Dubai and Saudi royals, Marc Rich, the Bin Ladens, Adnan Kashoggi, James Bath, and other operatives.

Gee - Ms. Pringle - why would Stephens have spent the 80s GROOMING Bill Clinton and underwriting his 92 primary campaign just as GHWBush expected to be impeached after the Dec 1992 release of the BCCI report?


Ms. Pringle - YOU should be ashamed for thinking Kerry and Kennedy are the wrong ones here. Kerry worked for YEARS to uncover IranContra, BCCI and CIA drugrunning - and Bill Clinton came into office and DEEP-SIXED all those matters.

Where was YOUR OUTRAGE, Ms. Pringle? You don't know shit about the Clintons and the 'set-ups' made over the years.

[redqueen]

42. Each and every time anyone mentions Jackson Stepens and BCCI...

it's like all of Hillaryworld goes

[blm]

46. And at the SAME TIME they claim that Obama is setup by establishment powerstructure.

They sound like complete and utter fools who woke up in 2006 after a twenty year sleep.

[GarbagemanLB]

11. The first two articles on Rezkowatch reference WORLD NET DAILY and THE NATIONAL ENQUIRER. LOL

[Maribelle]

13. In the smoke filled backrooms of the 'Chicago Combine, cash is king ...

corruption is bipartisan', so wrote the chicago tribune reporter of the Rezko trial, John Kass.

Obama is up to his neck in this good old-fashioned corrupt Chicago politics.

[leftofcool]

16. He's up to his neck in more than Chicago politics

[Cooley Hurd]

21. He's been a national figure for over 4 years, yet NOTHING'S been even REMOTELY proven...

Perhaps you know MORE than EVERY investigative reporter in the US? If you do, I recommend you start a blog and have at it, Brenda Starr!:D

[leftofcool]

39. Not yet.......try reading some of the Chicago Tribune archives

[Cooley Hurd]

40. Really, all kidding aside... you should do your duty and tell the US Atty's office about this...

MY GOD! You have found the KEYS TO THE KINGDOM for Senator Clinton!:D:rofl:

[cali]

26. It's always a laugh to watch hillbots

who support the massively corrupt Clintons talk about Obama's "corruption". He's got a long way to go before he could catch up with their slime.

:rofl:

[indimuse]

27. yes indeed

he is.

[anonymous171]

15. lol rezkowatch.

:rofl:

[GarbagemanLB]

18. Seriously! Look at the first article on that site...the National Enquirer! I wonder if it was before

or after the Bat-boy story? :rofl: :rofl:

[indimuse]

17. Obama attack machine? LOL

Projection, it's not just for movie theaters anymore.

[Thrill]

22. If Obama comes out of this Wright thing looking good. I don't think

The Repukes can do much to him

[Window]

53. It's just wishful thinking on these haters part.

[bunnies]

28. Obama is smart enough to know how to deal with this petty BS.

And his supporters are smart enough not to fall for this shit.

[Maribelle]

33. We've already witnessed this 'smart enough' hypothesis ...

and it wasn't pretty

[bunnies]

55. how so? nt

[indimuse]

35. Obama's connection to Rezko

http://cbs2chicago.com/topstories/Barack.Obama.Tony.2.336570.html



Obama's connection to Rezko is way more than 6 hours! He lied about Rezko and is STILL lying about the intimate details.

[Cooley Hurd]

37. Is he now? Well, then, you MUST do your civic duty and contact the US Atty office immediately!

Haste, not waste, my friend!:D

[Maribelle]

41. erm .... it was because of the US Attorney in Chicago we started to find out the truth

Please do try to keep up.

[Cooley Hurd]

44. The same US Atty's office (a BUSH-appointed US Atty, mind you) said Obama was NOT involved in...

...unlawful activities?:rofl:

This is WAY too much fun!:D

[Maribelle]

47. Fitzpatrick said no such thing

Obama was mentioned in the court papers filed to indict Rezko by Fitzpatrick. He said he would not be called as a witness.

[Cooley Hurd]

48. "Not called as a witness" means "irrevevant."

Wow, THAT'S elementary, my dear Maribelle.:D

[Maribelle]

49. He did not say 'Obama was not involved in unlawful activities'

I truly doubt it will happen, but Obama could be indicted based on witness testimony during the trial. Don't think for a second that by Obama not being called as a witness, Fitzgerald gives him a free pass. That is simply not true.

[bunnies]

54. And yet...

Nobody cares about Rezco. Go figure.

[izzybeans]

32. .

:rofl:

Is that from The Onion? Or was that a scene from the screen adaptation of 1984?

[pathansen]

50. This explains why the GOP has been intent on Obama winning

[Tribetime]

52. republicans credibility ZERO after Rove/Siegelman in Alabama

[cliffordu]

56. That would be the political ladder not the political latter....

:hi:
