The left wing media conveniently ignored Obama's nefarious connections to notorious Chicago slumlord and convicted criminal Tony Rezko during the election.
Unfortunately for the left and his senior advisor Valerie Jarret, Obama's ill timed Olympic bid has cast more attention on their direct involvement in corrupt Public/Private housing schemes in Chicago.
The picture above is of Grove Parc. A subsidized private housing complex managed by senior Obama advisor Valerie Jarret's former company Habitat until last winter. The building is in the process of being condemned. About 99 of the units are entirely uninhabitable due to appalling conditions such as collapsed roofs, backed up sewage, and rat infestations.
Grove Parc is just one of many such developments in Obamas former district.
According to the Boton Globe.
"Antoin "Tony" Rezko, perhaps the most important fund-raiser for Obama's early political campaigns and a friend who helped the Obamas buy a home in 2005. Rezko's company used subsidies to rehabilitate more than 1,000 apartments, mostly in and around Obama's district, then refused to manage the units, leaving the buildings to decay to the point where many no longer were habitable."
"Campaign finance records show that six prominent developers - including Jarrett, Davis, and Rezko - collectively contributed more than $175,000 to Obama's campaigns over the last decade and raised hundreds of thousands more from other donors. Rezko alone raised at least $200,000, by Obama's own accounting."
The particularly perverse aspect of this is that the so-called left-wing do gooders are directly involved in a taxpayer subsidized for profit private scheme that subjects some of the poorest most vulnerable Americans to dangerous, unsanitary living conditions.
Obama likes to talk about the excess of Wall Street. I wonder then how he feels about Valerie Jarret receiving over $1,000,000 in compensation while serving as VP for Habitat.
Obama's direct involvement in this scheme will become progressively harder for the media to suppress.
I guess the chickens are finally coming home to roost!
