“Why did the Illinois Senate Health & Human Services Committee, with Obama as chairman, create and push Bill 1332, “Illinois Health Facilities Planning Act,” early in 2003, which reduced the number of members on the Board from 15 to 9, just prior to rigging by Tony Rezko and Rod Blagojevich?”…Citizen Wells
“I believe I’m more pristine on Rezko than him.”…Rod Blagojevich
“Why has Obama, since taking the White House, used Justice Department Attorneys, at taxpayer expense, to avoid presenting a legitimate birth certificate and college records?”…Citizen Wells and millions of concerned Americans
“Why did Obama make Robert F. Bauer, an attorney with Perkins Coie, who helped Obama keep his records hidden before taking control of the White House, part of his administration as White House Counsel?”…Citizen Wells
You gotta like John Kass of the Chicago Tribune. He has been telling it like it is about Obama for years. And not just Obama, but all of Obama’s corruption buddies like Tony Rezko, Rod Blagojevich, William cellini, et al.
From John Kass and the Chicago Tribune June 17, 2011.
“Excited reporters rummaged desperately through more than 24,000 emails of former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin in the hopes of finding her saying something stupid.
So frantic were the New York Times and Washington Post that they went so far as to solicit readers to help them dig up the dirt on the conservative Palin.
It was what it was — a liberal media witch hunt. About the only thing they forgot to do was shriek, “Burn her! Burn her!”
Though I’m a conservative, the charismatic and optimistic Palin isn’t exactly my cup of tea. I preferred the charismatically challenged and much more pessimistic Indiana Gov. Mitch Daniels, who’s no longer running for president because his wife said so.
Isn’t it time we just abandon the pretense of objectivity in news-gathering when Palin is involved? The public surely picks up on the snarky tone in the coverage, that coiled seething media rage against Palin. But for what, exactly? Her fertility? Her femininity? Her pro-life views? Her ability to shoot and pray?
And I’ve also seen seasoned journalists get as wiggly as puppies when President Barack Obama comes around. Their faces glow. Some even leave wet spots on the carpet.
So I can’t imagine major news organizations asking readers to help their reporters dig up political dirt on Obama from his days as a Chicago politician. Yes, I know it’s not fashionable to say so, but Obama is a Chicago politician. All you’ve got to do is see his chief of staff, Billy Daley, crouching in the Oval Office like some gargoyle. But you wouldn’t know it from the national media.
So I ask you to imagine reading the following online:
“With all the records being released from Obama’s time as a state senator from Chicago — and all of his connections to the convicted influence peddler Tony Rezko — we need help.
“So we’re looking for some help from readers to analyze, contextualize and research it all right alongside our reporters over the next several days. … We’re limiting this to just 100 spots for people who will work collaboratively in small teams to surface the most important information from the emails. … If you need inspiration before getting started …”
Except for the stuff about Rezko and Obama, the language above is similar to last week’s Washington Post call for readers to join in the Palin Hunt. And the New York Times issued a similar invitation.
It’s almost impossible to imagine the media calling for an Obama hunt because the journalists are too much in love.
And, though Obama chided Hillary Clinton for not releasing her records during the last presidential campaign, he said he didn’t keep records of his own.
“I don’t have — I don’t maintain — a file of eight years of work in the state Senate because I didn’t have the resources available to maintain those kinds of records,” he said during a 2007 presidential campaign stop in Iowa.
Obama wasn’t sure where any cache of records might have gone, adding, “It could have been thrown out. I haven’t been in the state Senate now for quite some time.”
So there. And the Obama White House also won’t release other public information, like the minutes of the meetings in which Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel — Obama’s first chief of staff — sat on the board of Freddie Mac.”
“Let’s call it the Sarah Experiment.”
“She wrote, “we’ve traveled to every corner of the United States. I’ve now been in 57 states? I think one left to go.”
Naturally, they’ll say, “God, is she stupid or what? Palin doesn’t even know her own country. She’s too stupid to be president.”
And then you tell them that the stupid, racist thing Palin said about Indians was not said by Palin.
It was said in 2006 by the man who’s now vice president, Joe Biden.
And the idiot who, during the last presidential campaign, talked about visiting all 57 states with one to go? That wasn’t Palin saying something stupid.
That was Obama.”

Yes John, I have been taking part in the experiment to expose Obama since early 2008. Here is one of my latest attempts.
From Citizen Wells June 13, 2011.
“Once again, the left has tried to smear Sarah Palin and failed. Her goodness and love of country appears to threaten them. Too bad they didn’t scrutinize Obama.

Pristine
Barack Obama Emails
Uh, oh”
