Obama's Seeming Justice: Stunning Election Day News

Stunning story today in the Washington Times, as summarized beautifully by John Batchelor.

The FBI, at this hour, is involved in the investigation of Barack Obama's land deal with Tony Rezko. At issue: graft and lying on a Senate ethics form (a crime which took down Senator Ted Stevens of Alaska.)

This on top of last week's revelation of a "restrictive covenant" on the property which suggests collaboration between the two, in contradiction of Obama's own statements to the press.

This may be the shortest presidency in modern history. And no doubt, it will rival Bill Clinton's, at an even earlier stage, for partisan warfare. Right out of the gate, can you say "failed presidency?"

Despite the surreal resistance of the Bush-Haters and the Obama-Philes to the facts, the corrupt Barack Obama is a living example of what the sophist Glaucon described in Plato's Republic over 2,000 years ago:

"So let the unjust make his unjust attempts in the right way, and lie hidden if he means to be great in his injustice (he who is found out is nobody): for the highest reach of injustice is: to be deemed just when you are not." -Glaucon, Book II, Republic.

  1. That is certainly possible, but I don't think Republicans should get their hopes up.

    For eight years, Republicans were expecting Jim and Susan McDougal to incriminate the Clintons, and it never happened.
