I think you're reinventing the wheel with all these Rezko revelations. He's been tried and convicted, lawyers have been all over every inch of his history. They know, they know.

As I pointed out in my first paragraph Tony Rezko has used "shells" to cover his donations to Obama and other candidates. For example he has a shell company called Allied Materials LLC, another called Chicago Property Management as well as several others that I listed:


In addition to that Federal Election records indicate that Rezko has donated large sums to Obama under his wife and son's names. This was uncovered by WBEZ, Chicago and later part of an investigative report compiled and reported by WLS, channel 7, Chicago.

Most troubling of all are the donations by existing coorporations and non functioning businesses (many bankrupt or in process) that Tony Rezko controlled or was an investor in.



Obama has a lot of Rezko dirty money in his campaign chest!

What you said was
"Barack Obama claims that Antoin "Tony" Rezko has only contributed $5,000 to his presidential campaign which Obama says he has returned."

If its true or not none of what you say backs that up!

The point is that Rezko contributed quite a bit more than $5,000. I showed that by using his wife, son and various businesses which he owns or has an interest in he has made large contributions.

But you don't show how it was give to Obama presidental campaign.
To quote the beginning of your quote,
"On October 12, 2006, ABC 7 News Chicago reported that "in the last decade,"
If in fact it is true, it all happened before 2006, and none of that money was given to any presidential campaign as you originally said.
