Breaking Story: Prosecutor Fitzgerald Could Send Obama To Jail
StopTheACLU.com (re: a Chicago Sun times story) ^ | October 12, 2008 | na

Posted on 10/12/2008 1:47:35 PM PDT by forYourChildrenVote4Bush

The Sun Times today gave a major clue that Barack Obama will indeed go down with Tony Rezko, sooner rather than later. It looks as though Rezko is about to turn on Alexi Giannoulias, the 30-year old State Treasurer of Illinois (who was elected only because Obama backed him).

Why is this at “stop.aclu” and not the “chicago tribune”?

For the same reason it's at FreeRepublic.

And it's from the Sun Times not the Tribune.

Tony's judge or his prosecutor could have an accident that would delay sentencing until after Nov 4. I am very skeptical that this will work out in time, but it could.

You could be right. I just received a telephone call from two black conservative Republicans that discussed the Obama speech in Philly yesterday that touched on all of the words of the Black Liberation Movement of the 60’s — Malcom X, Eldgredge Cleaver and others which called for taking to the streets and led to the riots in the 60’s by blacks all over the US. He said the words “hoodwinked” and “bamboozled” are code words within the black community that whitey is out to take down the blacks. He thought the speech was strange for someone that kept saying he was ahead because it called for riots if he loses.

Would blacks riot if Obama goes down in a Rezko investigation?

Also was told the ads on Ayers need to also have Timothy McVeigh to compare Ayers acts with the WeatherUnderground when they bombed federal buildings to the acts of another domestic terrorist Timothy McVeigh who bombed the federal building in Oklahoma City. In all instances people died at the hands of the Weather Underground headed by Ayers and Dohrn and McVeigh. He said the ads will resonate with today’s generation that Obama hangs out today with the same type of people who became his mentor.

He said if we had a J. Edgar Hoover at the FBI this would not be happening. We have weak Administration and the DOJ has become a bad joke.

DiD Obama return to Chicago last night to be with his children knowing this was coming or was it the affair?

Anyway you slice it, this Country is in for worst of times.

Tony is due to get his sentence exactly 1 week before the election on Nov 4.

That would be Oct. 28 and Obama has bought the TV time for Oct. 29-right?

Fitzmas is supposedly mounting a RICO case involving ACORN, but do we know that for a fact? Or is it larger than ACORN or not involved with ACORN at all? Is it known when Fitzmas was appointed to look into this? Did the Hillary campaign start the process?

There is a lot going on behind the scenes and no one has been able to tie it all together yet.

The only thing for sure is that if you cut your political teeth in Chicago as a Democrat, you are going to rub shoulders with all kinds of shady characters.

Sorry, after EVERYTHING about The Messiah's past which has rolled off his back like Teflon, I must respectfully remain a skeptic.

Especially in Chicago?

Obambi could be filmed raping a 95 grandmother that he took hostage after robbing 2 banks and shooting a guard and he would never even get indicted.

My opinion!!!!

PS. I will say a little prayer tonight that there is some validity to this.

This is simple.

If McCain wants Rezko’s info he has only to ask Obama during the final debate if he plans on pardoning Rezko if he is elected President. If Obama says no in front of millions then I bet Tony sings.

Up to 1,000 killed in Kenyan crisis: Odinga

Odinga, who turned 63 on Monday, faces a dilemma of responding to international pressure to avoid provoking more violence while also maintaining momentum to oust Kibaki.

From the website Atlas Shrugs, June 17, 2008:

Watch this video of the conflict in Kenya months back [see link below]. Odinga and Obama are Luo. Odinga and his American counterpart and strategist Obama both campaigned on this canard of "change". Obama campaigned for Odinga. Adam pointed out that Obama's been in Nairobi politicking more recently than he's been to Iraq. Why now does Obama pretend he doesn't know him?

Listen as the Luo calls itself the "Taliban" in the video. It's graphic, it's gruesome but it is who Obama supported. Watch the whole thing, particularly the Luos burning a church, raping women, and hacking a man to death -vid hat tip kasper

TREASON: OBAMA'S TACIT SUPPORT FOR ODINGA'S VIOLENT OVERTHROW OF DEMOCRATICALLY ELECTED LEADER IN KENYA

UPDATE: Footage of Obama and Odinga campaiging together in Kenya. (hat tip Bill)

Jerome Corsi is back from Kenya and he confirms everything I have been reporting about Obama and Odinga since January 2008. Obama supported a vicious killer to overthrow the duly elected President of Kenya. The Odinga strategy exploited "anti-Kikuyu sentiments," clearly a racial strategy aimed at inflaming long-standing tribal animosity to gain electoral advantage for Odinga".

Why would Obama support the exploitation of ethnic violence and murder? To further his own Obamaodinga career? To position himself to "save the day"? Isn't this the same malevolent, anti-American, me-me-me subterfuge that Obama tried in Iraq? His private attempt to persuade Iraqi leaders to delay an agreement on a draw-down of the American military presence was sabotage, treason even. His objective was to keep our boys in Iraq until he became President so that he could position himself to take credit "for bringing our boys and girls home" when he he was vehemently against the surge and advocated surrender and defeat in Iraq. This Mansourian candidate depends and wishes for, advocates for American failure.

This is the currency in which he trades - bad for America is good for Obama. ..."

The Kenya Connection [Barack Obama, Raila Odinga]
New York Sun ^ | January 10, 2008 | DANIEL JOHNSON

Whether Mr. Odinga [Raila Odinga] has ordered his men to commit murder and arson is unclear. But his own background does not exactly suggest enthusiasm for democracy and the rule of law. Mr. Odinga's father, Oginga Odinga, led the Communist opposition during the Cold War and Raila Odinga was educated in Communist East Germany.

(snip)

In August 2006, Mr. Obama visited Kenya and spoke in support of Mr. Odinga's candidacy at rallies in Nairobi. The Web site Atlas Shrugs has even posted a photograph of the two men side by side. More recently, Mr. Odinga says that Mr. Obama interrupted his campaigning in New Hampshire to have a telephone conversation with his African cousin about the constitutional crisis in Kenya.

What should Americans make of Mr. Obama's Kenyan connection? If he has been putting tribal or family considerations above America's national interest by supporting Mr. Odinga's anti-Western candidacy, it raises serious questions about his judgement.

At the time of his visit in 2006, President Kibaki's spokesman complained that Mr. Obama was behaving like a "stooge" of Mr. Odinga — which was at best undignified for a visiting American senator, and at worst unwarranted interference in the internal politics of another country.

From Atlas Shrugs:

"...this hasn't even gotten into the relationship between Obama and Raila Odinga, yet another politician who ran on the 'hope & change' theme while utilizing criminal ties, who would then stage a violent and bloody uprising when national elections didn't go his way. Somehow we don't hear much about the nightly phone calls between Sen. Obama and Raila Odinga these days..."

Kenya's first truly free and fair democratic election was in December 2002, won by Mwai Kibaki and a multi-ethnic coalition party NARC (National Rainbow Coalition). One of the leaders of that coalition was Raila Odinga.

Kibaki didn't give him positions in the new government that he felt were important enough, so Odinga formed an opposition party, ODM (Orange Democratic Movement, orange the symbol color of opposition).

When Raila Odinga lost the presidential election last week (12/27) to Mwai Kibaki, he claimed the vote was rigged, whereupon his tribal followers went on murderous rampages such as in the town of Eldoret, where on New Years Day dozens of people were burned to death in a church set on fire.

Throughout Kenya, hundreds of people have been politically murdered in the last few days.

Kenya's 37 million people are divided up into over three dozen tribes and sub-tribes, but the two dominant ones are Kikuyu and Luo. Kenyan politics since independence in 1963 has essentially been a duke-out between them.

The father of Kenyan independence and president until 1978 was Jomo Kenyatta, a Kikuyu. His main political opponent was Oginga Odinga, known as "OO," a Luo and Raila's father.

While Kenyatta was pro-West and sided with America in the Cold War, OO [Oginga Odinga, Raila's father] was a Communist who was aided and supported by the Soviet Union.

That's why Raila went to school in East Germany (born in 1945, he graduated from Magdeburg University in 1970), and named his first-born son after Fidel Castro.

Thus it likely won't shock you to learn that Raila has now made a deal for support from the Soviets' successors as world-champion enemies of the West and democratic freedoms: Moslem fundamentalists.

The Evangelical Alliance of Kenya has posted on its website a photograph copy of a Memorandum of Understanding, dated and signed on August 29, 2007, between Raila Odinga and Shiekh Abdullah Abdi, chairman of the National Muslim Leaders Forum of Kenya.

It pledges the support of Kenyan Moslems for Raila's election. In return, as President of Kenya, Raila agrees to 14 actions, listed a) through n) on page two. Read them all, and be sure you're sitting down. Here's a sample:

b) Within 6 months re-write the Constitution of Kenya to recognize Shariah as the only true law sanctioned by the Holy Quran for Muslim declared regions.

c) With immediate effect dismiss the Commissioner of Police who has allowed himself to be used by heathens and Zionists to oppress the Kenyan Muslim community.

g) Within one year facilitate the establishment of a Shariah court in every Kenyan divisional headquarters. [Note: everywhere in Kenya, not just in "Muslim declared regions."]

Again, read all of them, for others are just as bad or worse.

It may also not surprise you that Raila is not Moslem himself, but claims to be a practicing Anglican. Only a minority of Luo are Moslem (most are Christian). Kenya on the whole is Christian, with 80% of Kenyans either Protestant or Roman Catholic, while only 10% are Moslem.

And here is the biggest non-surprise: Raila Odinga has, in his own words, a "close personal friendship" with Barrack Hussein Obama Junior.

When Obama went to Kenya in August of 2006, he was hosted by Raila and spoke in praise of him at rallies in Nairobi:
