Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama and Tony Rezko

A "gotcha" that wasn't for one candidate, a need to "come clean" for another.

    Your a little short on facts.

    Your taking a bullet for someone deeply involved with the Democratic fundraising scandals back in Chicago -who says doesn't know one of those big fundraisers??

    You don't get a solo photo op like that unless you're connected.

    That photo was taken about 1996, right around the same time Terry McCaulife, head of the DNC and a few others -all who now still and currentlty work for the Clintons -were caught up in the Chicago Teachers Union and a New York Investment firm scandals -of which Rezko was a part.

    At that time Obama was in the Chicago Senate..

    While it's one thing to be connected through your party to others who are corrupt within the party just by knowing them or taking legal donations from them as in Obama's case -before any scandal broke, and to which Obama was never a part of - compared to the Clintons who were not only deeply entwined with Illinois scams and money, but then to keep them on your payroll and enlist their aid in another political campaign??

    And most people thought what happened in Chicago -stayed in Chicago. Notice a pattern now in the trails left by the Clinton's where ever they go?

    As Democrats, we didn't see it before because Republican's said it -but now we're seeing it with our own eyes.
