Obama's Syrian Connection

By Andrew Walden FrontPageMagazine.com | 3/11/2008

Most politicians try to keep their financial backers un-indicted until after the election. But Obama’s biggest early sponsor, dual U.S.-Syrian citizen Antoin ‘Tony’ Rezko, is already indicted by a federal grand jury. Now he is going to trial in a Chicago federal court. Rezko, along with co-defendants Ali Ata and Abdelhamid Chaib, face federal grand jury charges presented in October 2006 by the U.S. Attorney for Northern Illinois, Patrick Fitzgerald. The case centers on allegations of fraud between 2000 and 2004 in the sale of 17 Papa Johns’ Pizza parlors in Detroit, Chicago and Milwaukee. The case may begin with pizza, but it leads to Europe, Syria, Iraq, and the UN Oil for Food program...

...and the UN Oil for Food program...

In which case can the Toons be far behind? Rezko may be an equal opportunity butt-biter :)

A stench seems to be wafting in from the general direction of the “Windy City”.

Does anyone now doubt why Obama has opposed the war with Iraq from the beginning? Follow the money, folks!

Makes me wonder which side Obama will pick in the WOT.

The corrupted Oil for Food program is the greatest scandal of the decade, and hardly was mentioned in the media or by politicians. Amazing. This should have been a major political talking point for Bush and the Republicans.

Do you not understand that the Republicans do not have any gonads. They might upset someone if they pressed this issue.

"Does anyone now doubt why Obama has opposed the war with Iraq from the beginning? Follow the money, folks!"

Also follow Barack Hussein Obama's islamic connection. The money and the islamists are in on this one. This is why it irks me when folks like Rush Limbaugh and other conservative talk show hosts seem to be railing against their fellow talk show hosts who try to cast light on Obama's islamofacist connection, through using his middle name and referring to his islamic lineage. Perhaps not many know it, but to Muslims, when your father is a muslim you are also a muslim and you can never change that. I suppose this is why they remove your head if you try to switch religions.

To gain perspective on just how insane America has become by esteeming Barack Hussein Obama as Presidential material while at war with Islamist terrorists, just imagine the chances a man named Yuri Segolov Molotov would have had running for President of the U.S. during the Cold War, who was an anti-war liberal, and whose father was a known Communist who was born in Russia. Such a man would have absolutely no chance whatsoever, and he would not have even made it to the Congress, let alone the White House. Yes, political correctness has driven rationality out of the American mind and replaced it with perfect stupidity.

This will matter for nothing. The media is portraying Osamabama as the next coming. It makes me sick that he has so many shady dealings and associates but the media refuses to mention it. Call me when CNN and NBC report this.We are all doomed if this Idiot is elected.

Just doing my part to prep conservatives for the general election. And I disagree with you on one point...Obama’s racist, criminal and terrorist connections will most certainly matter to the “crossovers” come election time. As for CNN and NBC reporting on this stuff, I’m not holding my breath, but Fox has already begun reporting on portions of this material in earnest as recently as Sunday on Hannity’s America.

I’m shocked, shocked! They reported the names of the co-defendants “Ali” and “Abdelhamid.” This is as bad as mentioning the name “Hussein.” It is racist and conveys the implication that they may be connected to the Religion of Peace (trade mark pending.)

Hillary isn’t doing anything remotely close to airing Obama’s dirty laundry. We need to get this stuff out amongst conservatives now so it builds in time for the general.

but not too soon, you see, because then it will be old news by the time the rest of the country is interested in the election. Obama would be ‘immunized.’

I could of course be wrong, but given Obama’s EXTENSIVE list of political, criminal and terrorist diseases, I have a hard time believing the public could ever be immunized to more than a few of them come election time.

yeah but then he could drop out now as a result and not get the nomination. Get him after he’s nominated or just before when it is too late to switch.

Conservatives were upset when Dean dropped out early and he wasn’t even such a bad guy.

Makes me wonder which side Obama will pick in the WOT.

I bet you forgot your sarcasm tags... but here's what I thought, before I thought "I bet GodGunsGuts forgot the sarcasm tags":

You think it is still open to debate? I mean the WOT is merely a subset of the whole good vs evil thing going down all day, every day, universe wide. I don't think B. Hussein Obama's all that averse to the dark side in general, why should he have a problem with Islamists. Hell, he is spawn of Muslims, which makes him not all bright on the general problem of good vs evil and, well, that makes him not all that good on the general problem of Islamists and, well, this could be the post that never ends. Ha.

Good and evil ain't rocket science. Don't over think it. If you think he may not be quite right on the WOT, I bet you a buck, you're right.

Again see above sarcasm note that I figure you already have it figured out.
