Obama Omission Comes Out At The Rezko Trial

By: Pam On: Apr/14/08 - 13 Comments

Bob Secter and Jeff Coen of the Chicago Tribune have been covering the trial. I will provide this link for you to review the materials:

The Rezko party in 2004 was designed to induce Auchi to pour money into the South Loop investment. Obama’s presence at the party was not previously known. At the time, Obama was fresh off a surprise win in the Illinois Democratic primary for U.S. Senate and was riding a crest of national publicity.

Well now it is!

Ed has tons more but keys in on how Obama may try to wiggle out of it by saying he recalled attending a party with a lot of people he didn’t know, but had no recollection of Auchi being one of them, as Ed points out that Rezko threw the party in Auchi’s honor. The reception specifically focused on Auchi.

    Catholic university bans a pro-life speaker

    I don’t get this.  The Catholic Church is very much opposed to Abortion.  So why would a Catholic school ban a Pro Life speaker?

    Apparently guilt by association is the sin.  This is throwing the baby out with the bathwater…ironic…
