    You must be really fun to deal with over serious things.

      illegally making oil deals with Iran during the hostage crisis to be a serious thing.  It's very telling that you don't.

        Aiding and abetting the enemy to make a buck is pretty much the definition of traitor.

          Exactly how much did he contribute to Clinton's Presidential Library?  We'll never know since they refuse to release the records.

          On the other hand, never mind.  You'll fit right in here.  

          Back to Rezko problem: how come a guy who touts his judgement got into buying house with the help of Rezko?

          How come a guy who tout his community organizing days and again his judgement, didn't have a clue (at least says he didn't) over the status of PUBLIC HOUSING in his own district?

          Greetings this still stand between us.

          10 days actually so weeks isn't correct the correct term.  Your first pro-Nader comment was on 2/23.

          You stated, period that i had been posting for weeks pro Nader posts and then 10 days.  This post was your proof.  I have copied in the gemane part of the quote.  This is from 2/29/08

          "I would love to vote for Nader just to get back at Bo suppoters but come on if it wasnt for Nader Gore would have won.  Voting for Nader validates his conduct in 2000.  But i will not vote for BO and not give a dime to anyone but the DNC.  Really, right now Dean is the only one".

          I ask you to keep your commitment?  Respectfully.

            This is Whitewater/Vince Foster type smearing.  I wish I could say I was shocked to see you diving into the slime, but I'm not.  Say anything, change nothing.

              a guy who touts his judgement, who says:
              accidentally, we bought it on the same day...  no, wait a second, I think I mentioned it to him... no, I think I toured the house with him...

              How come a guy (Rezko) on the verge of bankruptcy, with creditors after him, bought a $600,000 lot?

              How come a woman (his wife) with $35,000 yearly income got a mortgage for that amount?

              ALSO: how come a guy touting his judgement and community organizing experience  (Obama) had no fr*&gging clue about what was happening to Public housing in his OWN DISTRICT?  I mean, shouldn't he know? Isn't that his job? Wouldn't people come to him with concerns?

            What about the Clinton trial in Los Angeles. Look it up. The Clintons have years worth of corruption that the Repugs can't wait to release. Rizko is nothing in comparison.

          Bill Clinton wasn't running.  Geez, when will you guys figure out that a woman named Hillary Rodham (Clinton) is running for President?

            that the RNC won't run 90's scandal ads over and over in the GE.

            Or put Bill's ranting from SC in a commercial.

            Or not flash headlines about Eastern European deals for library contributions on the TV.

            Or Norman Hsu.  Or anything of the sort.

            If you can assure me they won't run against Bill, or any of the crap that's come up since he left office, then sure...

            Otherwise, the Republicans will run against both of them.  Sad, but true.  And par for the course for the Repugs.

            We...join arm in arm and decide we are going to remake this country block by block, precinct by precinct, county by county, state by state - that's what hope is.

            during his presidency.  Did she sit out on all the bad decisions?  I guess we'll never know since she refuses to release her White House records.  She makes Cheney look like a model of gov't transparency.

              take "claim credit for everything good" during his presidency.  Links please.  If you want to say she takes credit for everything good she did as First Lady, then I'll give you that.  But Bill's presidency was his own, not hers.  The good with the bad.
