Right On The Right

Ed Morrissey has been doing a great job over at Hot Air researching and analyzing the Rezko-Obama situation. In his recent post about the scandal, he dug up a story that should've received more attention when it came out in June of 2007. Obama has a history of lying:

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.

With Obama still leading Clinton on the Democrat side, and with all his "politics of hope" rhetoric, any signs of corruption need to be thoroughly checked out. While the New York Times prints smear pieces about John McCain, the Messiah's corrupt past goes untouched. Sounds like we have our work cut out for us in the New Media.
