Comments on: On First Day of Trial, Obama Grilled About Rezko

NAFTA-gate and the 12-year relationship with Rezko are only the tip of the iceberg here. The reporter didn''t mention that Obama walked out of the press briefing after only a few questions and the requisite Clinton-bashing soundbite. Let''s remember, this is the small-time state legislator that the Illinois G.O.P. helped get elected to the U.S. Senate in 2004. The plan, hatched by Karl Rove, was to infiltrate the Democratic Party with its operative the same way it did AARP before the Medicare vote. Obama''s speechwriter Ben Rhodes is the brother of Fox News VP David Rhodes. (Fox is the G.O.P. p.r. agency.) It''s probably the biggest swindle in presidential election in history.

While Hillary Clinton battles Barack Obama on the campaign trail, a judge in Los Angeles is quietly preparing to set a trial date in a $17 million fraud suit that aims to expose an alleged culture of widespread corruption by the Clintons.

At the conclusion of a hearing tomorrow morning before California Superior Court Judge Aurelio N. Munoz, lawyers for Hollywood mogul Peter F. Paul will begin seeking sworn testimony from all three Clintons %u2013 Bill, Hillary and Chelsea %u2013 along with top Democratic Party leaders and A-list celebrities, including Barbra Streisand, John Travolta, Brad Pitt and Cher.

Paul''s team hopes for a trial in October. The Clintons'' longtime lawyer David Kendall, who will attend the hearing, has declined comment on the suit.

The Clintons have tried to dismiss the case, but the California Supreme Court, in 2004, upheld a lower-court decision to deny the motion.

He should stop entertaining these Clinton media stooges with this Rezko nonsense, and move on. A total waste of energy on his part.

Seven years of incompetent bufoonery is enough!

Gee, I keep hearing Hillary and her supporters pushingthis "Rezko" thing. Must be a PRETTY DAM IMPORTANT issue if they think it''''ll make the public change their vote to support Sen. Clinton over Sen. Obama.So, since they think it''''s so important that I should change my vote, please, Clinton supporters out there, explain to me the following so I can decide if this issue rises to the level of importance to change my

vote...How does this Rezko thing affect my ability to pay my mortgage next month?What does it have to do with keeping my job?
How does Rezko affect the quality of my kid''s public schooleducation?
How does Rezko affect the value of the dollar?What does Rezko have to do with ending the occupation of the Middle East?How does it affect gas and food prices that I pay?
In short, how does this "Rezko" thing affect ME and MY FAMILY in such a relevent way that I should change my preference from the status quo politics (Clinton and McCain) to wanting something different than we''ve already had for the past 8 years?
If it doesn''t affect these reasons why I would vote for someone, then frankly, as an independent voter, I really don''t see why this would make anyone like myself think any more favorably of Sen. Clinton or her counterparts in the conservative movement.
If anything, if it ISN''T relevent out here in the real world, then it makes me think that the Clinton campaign has nothing to offer but beating up on a competitor over nonsense. If THAT''S the case, then I have no interest in voting for her. She''s wasting my time with piffle rather than actual, relevent issues.if some Hillary backers would care to respond, I''d be more than happy to listen.

As it relates to McCain, lets not forget the Keating Five. None of these candidates are squeaky clean. Obama is a better choice than the other two without a doubt. At least his campaign hasn''t taken money from lobbyists. That''s the biggest stand any presidential candidate has taken in American politics in a long time. That''s a change! And I''m happy to get behind what I''ve seen from him so far. I won''t let smear campaigns and inuendo about Rezko or NAFTA steal my vote.

By the way, the information that I posted before came from wikipedia. Rezko has been supporting politicans for years. Many reporters have said the land deal appears to be above board, not a good idea, but above board. Can we say the same for the Clintons past indiscretions?
