Rezko A Media Issue; If There Is A Clinton Involved

By Big Tent Democrat

This site is on record in believing that the Rezko matter is a nonissue -- that Barack Obama did nothing wrong. It seemed that the Media largely agreed with our assessment, there has been virtually no coverage of the issue.

But find a picture, undated and unsourced, of the Clintons with Rezko, then lo and behold, the Media sees an issue. Let's ignore the fact that Presidents and First Ladies take pictures with a multitude of people. Let's ignore the fact that Rezko was NOT a Clinton contributor. If we can unfairly bash the Clintons let's do so.

But if it IS an issue, then it is time to cover Obama's close relationship with Rezko. I think it is a nonissue, but if the Media really believes it IS an issue, then Obama's close relationship with Rezko demands coverage that it has not recieved. What a joke the Media is and always has been.
