"The doctor sold the mansion to Obama for $1.65 million -- $300,000 below the asking price." Right. It was the highest bid he got. Since when was asking price the same as market price? "Six months later, Obama paid Rezko's wife $104,500 for a strip of her land, so he could have a bigger yard." Which was appraised at $40k. "Questioned later about the timing of the Rezko deal, Obama called it "boneheaded" because people might think the Rezkos had done him a favor."" Yes.
