I am more concerned with Obama's Tony Resko problem than this. It does not appear she was given a house.
In June 2005, Obama and Rezko purchased adjoining parcels in Kenwood. The state's junior senator paid $1.65 million for a Trinity Georgian revival mansion, while Rezko paid $625,000 for the adjacent, undeveloped lot. Both closed on their properties on the same day. The fact is the Obamas and the Rezkos bought property in a fashionable South Side neighborhood next to each other on the same day, from the same lot, and the Obamas came out the winners. Obama bought his home at a $300,000 discount. Rezko bought the adjoining lot from the same sellers at full price. One got a juicy bargain. The other overpaid. Legend has it that Rezko never paid full price for anything in his life, so he starts with Obama? That's the other thing, the fence. Obama says his engineer and architect planned it, and then Rezko put it up for him. In exchange, Obama gets a large yard left vacant by Tony, but Obama says he never uses it for barbecues and Frisbee throwing, because it's not his, though his gardeners cut the grass. And the only way into that unused pasturage is through the fence that Tony built, and Obama is the only one with the key. It's a fence. But I guess it all depends on what your definition of fence is. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "AlexBennettProgram" group.
