William Miceli
An attorney for convicted fundraiser Tony Rezko is listed as the owner and taxpayer for Barack Obama's Chicago mansion, according to records obtained by WND.

William Miceli is a lawyer at the Chicago law firm Miner, Barnhill & Galland, which also formerly employed Obama.

The controversy began when a website called News and Commentary for Thinking People published a 48-page document that lists Miceli as the owner of the Obama home at 5046 S. Greenwood.

Miner, Barnhill & Galland was Obama's employer when he did extensive legal work for Rezko, who awaits sentencing after he was convicted in June of fraud, money laundering and bribery-related counts.

Miceli, as a senior attorney at the firm, supervised Obama when the future president wrote letters on behalf of Rezko urging public authorities to award him new public properties to rehabilitate, notes the "Barack Book" website maintained by GOP.com.

WND asked for comment from Obama's transition team and the Democratic National Committee but did not receive a response.

Nothing to see here, move along people.   :rotf:  What are the odds of the MSM even hinting at this story?

Now this is interesting. :popcorn:

Bill Clinton once referred to the White House as the "finest public housing in the country".

Can the stink from Chicago get any worse ?

My fellow Americans, there is nothing audacious about hope. Hope is what makes people buy lottery tickets instead of paying the bills. Hope is for the old gals feeding the slots in Atlantic City. It destroys the inner-city kid who quits school because he hopes he'll be a world-famous recording artist.

What's the difference between Sarah Palin and Barack Obama?

One is a well turned-out, good-looking, and let's be honest, pretty sexy piece of eye-candy.

The other kills her own food.

The stink is pretty powerful.  I wouldn't make any bets yet.

now the question becomes: did BHO live there all that time rent-free with the understanding that he would direct housing contracts Rezko's way?

Actually, the only property that Chicago's Registrar of Deeds has on record for the Obamas is a condo they purchased in the 90s.

No wonder Blago is holding out.  He thinks he's got it made once The Rookie gets settled into the White House.

And what I mean by that is, he knows things like this, Rezko knows things like this about Obama and they can use it to hold over his head to make sure they get what they want.  Which for one will be a pardon next Christmas and for the other it means never seeing the inside of a jail cell.

Otherwise the Gov makes a call to the Mayor who in turn calls the person in the city/county in charge of the tax rolls who then suddenly "discovers" that the Obama's are living in a house they don't pay taxes on.
