you takin` your reflux medicine?....

/there you go....weasel lookin` out for his libs..

Yes and there were people visiting Vegas last night. I practically had to punch them in the face to make them understand that I wasn't drinking!

It's amazing, you can drink like a fish for years - increasing your capacity and outdoing your peers. But man, you try to take ONE night off and it's as if you are focking Mormon homosexual (not that there's anything wrong with that of course...well, actually the Mormons would probably think there is something wrong with that).

I wish I could skim some of the many excess drinks over the years and be able to use them as credits when not drinking.

Because Wright is officiating at a wedding Saturday

:mj07:

Plucked that out of June '07 Rezko thread and have never heard it put quite that way.........would think the happy couple would need the ref as time goes by, but this one had one for the jump.

sorry smurph, but if I were a Mormon homo, I would be brushing my teeth with vodka......you think a Mormon homo has to give back the 10% even if ostracized:shrug:

My real point......what ever happened to that civil suit about the Cali fundraiser Peter Paul? Last I heard, its coming up in March. As DTB said, it does have a "tin foil-troofer" vibe to it, but this is an actual court case in the public domain, is it not? Think it might pop up in the debate next week? Some loose cannon re-leaking it to the 4th estate before Feb. 5, gashing away at Team Clinton Wolverine-style?

Judge revokes Rezko's bond, sends fundraiser to jail

January 28, 2008

FROM SUN-TIMES STAFF REPORTS

A businessman who has fundraising ties to both Gov. Blagojevich and Democratic presidential contender Barack Obama won?t have the comforts of home tonight ? namely a mansion in Wilmette ? as a federal judge revoked his bond this afternoon and sent him to jail.

Prosecutor contended that Antoin ?Tony? Rezko repeatedly lied to the court about his finances while out on bond on fraud charges.

?The reality is this defendant has played a shell game,? and has ?misled the court? about his financial situation, Assistant U.S. Attorney Reid J. Schar said.

Rezko allegedly secretly received millions of dollars in a bank account and funneled the money through third parties to family, friends and creditors -- all without telling the court, prosecutors alleged.

Rezko got $3.5 million from a British-based Iraqi billionaire to whom he has business ties and also cashed out of a large land investment on the South Side, prosecutors alleged.

Before he was granted bond, Rezko had told the court he had no money to speak of and had to have family members post properties for his $1.5 million bond.

But prosecutors allege that Rezko funnelled money to some of those family members.

In one instance, Rezko sent $260,000 to one family member who posted two properties for Rezko?s bond -- eliminating the risk that relative faced if Rezko fled, and the properties had to be forfeited.

In another case, Rezko secretly made several mortgage payments on behalf of another relative who had posted property.

Rezko?s attorney, Joseph Duffy, tried to take the blame for any miscommunication about his client's finances, but U.S. District Court Judge Amy St. Eve wasn?t buying it.

?The fault lies with me and not Mr. Rezko,? Duffy said.

Rezko was arrested this morning at his home without incident and was taken to jail after a bond revocation hearing this afternoon.

He has pleaded not guilty to charges that he joined with another major political fundraiser, businessman and attorney Stuart Levine, to shake down money management companies wanting to invest state pension funds.

Let's hope the fallout takes out Blago!! The guy is a C.U.N.T.............Cant Understand Normal Things (credit to Jack Nicholson, there:SIB )......who do you think Frisbee-head will endorse this week? I'll bet he's a "no play"/lean to Ole Hill b/c he's too pussilanimous :)mj07: been waitin' for a crack to use that word!); waiting around to see who's really going to win before he hops on the wagon.

The news cycle on Antonin as it relates to Barry is over. No freakin' way Team Slick lets this bubble to the surface again. They'll slink away after playing their divisive games in SC. The blinds are going up now, so they'll sneak the race vs women vibe in now and again, but no chance they'll let Whitewater sneak in now.
