During his 12 years in politics, Sen. Barack Obama has received nearly three times more campaign cash from indicted businessman Tony Rezko and his associates than he has publicly acknowledged, the Chicago Sun-Times has found.
Obama has collected at least $168,308 from Rezko and his circle. Obama also has taken in an unknown amount of money from people who attended fund-raising events hosted by Rezko since the mid-1990s.
But seven months ago, Obama told the Sun-Times his “best estimate†was that Rezko raised “between $50,000 and $60,000″ during Obama’s political career.
Obama, who wants to be the nation’s next president, has been purging some of those donations — giving charities more than $30,000 he got from Rezko and three of his business partners referenced in Rezko’s federal indictments. All three attended a lavish fund-raiser Rezko hosted for Obama four years ago.
Obama, however, has kept $6,850 from others who also are referenced in Rezko’s indictments. Obama also has hung on to contributions from doctors whom Rezko helped appoint to a state-government panel involved in some of Rezko’s alleged fraud schemes.

I expect the cognitive dissonance to fall somewhere between:
A) This is a Rovian hit-job
B) How else do you expect a black man to suceed in racist white America
Michelle O. herself may very well pop-off with one of these (or both) herself.

It will be interesting to see the reaction on DU. :popcorn:

All Obama has to do is claim some lowball number ($30,000), give that money to charity, and he can pocket the rest for his campain and the media won't question a thing.

unless Obama took the check Rezko gave him, endorsed it and let the charity cash it... he didnt actually give the money back.
