Obama's Whitewater, and the Evidence that He Lied

Another major revelation this week about the Tony Rezko and Barack Obama land deal. (a.k.a., Obama's Whitewater.)

At the time of the deal, Obama told the media that there was no deal, no coordination and no undue influence in Tony Rezko buying the adjacent lot to his own mansion. But GOPmom blog has uncovered evidence of a coordinated effort.

Heretofore unknown, and conveniently never mentioned by Obama, a restrictive covenant existed on the adjacent property, that would have made it not worth Rezko's time and effort to buy that property. A restrictive covenant that was conveniently dropped before the closing.

Now, thanks to some mysterious source, it's out there. (Has the second Clinton arrow flown?) (See also John Batchelor's interesting musings on the source of this discovery.)

What this suggests is coordination, among the numerous buying and selling parties in this deal, all of which is currently being investigated by prosecutors in Chicago as Rezko sings.

Despite the hatred of George W. Bush and Republican policy -- some of which is much deserved -- which blinds the public to the questions of ethics at hand, GOPmom blog drives home the salient point:

"According to numerous media reports, foreign nationals financed Rezko. The public must openly speculate about who holds undue influence over Senator Obama and how these people can influence domestic and foreign policy. This has nothing to do with dubious associations or even poor judgment. This is about political corruption in government. Unfortunately, Senator Obama’s actions should concern anyone who believes in a well-functioning government of the people, by the people and for the people."

It's time to care, Bush haters. Because, "the battle is won [or lost] before it is ever fought." The impeachment has begun before the election results are even in.
