Boy oh boy, BO can surely pick em. Valerie Jarrett is as crooked as they come. She even made the top 10 most corrupt politicians list. She is the one responsible for hiring Van Jones, the NEA propaganda scheme and now the Olympics scandal they are trying to pull off. The WH even gave her an ethics waiver to sign so she can get in on the lobbying for the Olympics in 2016 because she normally wouldn't have been allowed to by law because it would have been a conflict of interest since she has close ties to the real estate owners that would benefit, along with her, if the Olympic Games came to Chicago. I think this is the last nail in the coffin that proves how corrupt this administration is....

She is one of the Chicago machine, and she is trying to get federal dollars from HUD to help make her old pals rich.

Chicago and the Obama administration are exploring ways the federal government can bolster the city's bid for the 2016 Olympic Games with financial support for the $1-billion Olympic Village.
Crain's has learned that senior presidential adviser Valerie Jarrett and Lori Healey, president of the Chicago 2016 committee, met this month with top officials of the Department of Housing and Urban Development to discuss financing options for the village, the single biggest project — and question mark — in the city's bid.
The main hurdle facing Chicago is coming up with a long-range plan for an Olympic Village that is commercially viable while meeting objectives of existing HUD programs that could be tapped for funds, such as low-income housing tax credits and grants or loan guarantees for community development, affordable housing or housing for seniors.
And we all know that if Michelle Malkin reported on this, it is absolutely true! Just like the 1.5 million attendees of the 9/12 March on Washington
typical response. It's true, follow the money...
