  37. Do as we say, not as we do.

    Comment by GA Watcher Friday, Jan 25, 08 @ 9:30 am

  38. Who produced this photo? Who would have had a copy, but Rezko and the Clintons in their files? Is it a fake? And, anyway, so what? The Clintons have no doubt posed for thousands of photos like this, with people and donors they don’t even know. Much ado about nothing, but this is the level to which our politics have stooped!

    Comment by Legal Eagle Friday, Jan 25, 08 @ 9:32 am

  39. I’ll have a crooked sandwich on white!

    Comment by Diamond Dog Friday, Jan 25, 08 @ 9:32 am

    Comment by A Citizen Friday, Jan 25, 08 @ 9:39 am

  45. ===Much ado about nothing, but this is the level to which our politics have stooped!===

    Exactly. Like those “Present” votes, this means nothing. It’s precisely why I posted the pic.

    Comment by Rich Miller Friday, Jan 25, 08 @ 9:42 am

  46. Rezko: What does this word mean… this hypocracy?

    Bill: It is a made-up word, like “truth” or “is.” It means nothing.

    Hillary: There are only three words you need to know in this business — “power,” “money,” and “silence.”

    Comment by unclesam Friday, Jan 25, 08 @ 9:47 am

  49. Shame on you. Shame. On. You.

    Comment by Jon Shibley Fan Friday, Jan 25, 08 @ 9:51 am

  50. So, Legal Eagle, is it a fake, or one of thousands of photos?

    You seem to argue two opposing positions. Not unlike Hillary. Makes sense.

    Comment by Jon Shibley Fan Friday, Jan 25, 08 @ 9:53 am

  51. Hasn’t Rezko suffered enough—why must you embarrass him?

    Comment by Madame Defarge Friday, Jan 25, 08 @ 9:55 am

  52. “Basically, it’s an up day.”

    Comment by Macbeth Friday, Jan 25, 08 @ 10:07 am

  53. ===Much ado about nothing, but this is the level to which our politics have stooped!===

    Who’s the our here? This is Democrat on Democrat.

    I’d be asking about Rezko’s deals on powerplants in Iraq, not this slumlord and picture stuff.

    It would be nice to know too, who’s the unamed source who leaked Obama as the unknown name in those court documents.

    I’d really like the pic of the leaker.

    Comment by Bill Baar Friday, Jan 25, 08 @ 10:09 am

  54. Slumlord to you. Just lord of sums to us.

    Comment by Vole Friday, Jan 25, 08 @ 10:18 am

  55. Staffer - “Just a second sir…your name?”
    VM - VanillaMan.

    Staffer - “Mr. Rezko is almost finished with his photo with the President and First Lady… While you are waiting, have you heard about our ‘Lincoln Bedroom Special’ - an overnight in the White House?
    VM - Yes, I have heard about that…

    Staffer - “Being from Illinois, you probably would love to overnight with the Clintons in Honest Abe’s bedroom, wouldn’t you?”
    VM - Yes I would. But I had to borrow the $1000 for this photo, and I really couldn’t come up with enough for the Lincoln Bedroom Special.

    Staffer - “OH, I think you could, Mr. VanillaMan. Have you heard about our ‘Friends and Family’ plan?”
    VM - No.

    Staffer - “The ‘We-Beg-Your-Pardon Special’? Know anyone in jail that needs our help? If you do, just make sure you come to us with a contribution to the Clinton Library.”
    VM - Can you guys hold my check for a couple of weeks? I’m a little short…

    Staffer speaking into headset - “Security? We have a Code Green here! Can you step away from this line Mr. VanillaMan and see those gentlemen at the door? Yah, the big guys…”
    VM - I waited a hour to meet the President…

    Staffer - “I SAID ‘STEP AWAY!’ Thank you!” “Just a second ma’am…your name?”
    Lady - “Denise Rich. My ex wants that ‘We-Beg-Your-Pardon Special’”

    Security - “Beat it loser! You are not our kind!”
    VM - I want my check back! TONY! TONY! OVER HERE! I KNOW YOU SEE ME! HELP!
