Oh yeah, liberal mythology. You know, some people think there is a special tax credit in the tax law for people beyond a certain income level. That's probably the most naive statement you have ever made. Think I found one of 'em. It wasn't before he ran for the Senate. Bottomline: it was an above board deal. Trust me, if it had been, your boys would have been making a big stink about it long ago. It was right after he got into the Senate before he announced for Pres. I know - there were no laws broken - so its an "above the board" deal. Because the scrutiny made it impossible to do anything underthe table. Its just a weird as hell deal and illogical to view it as anything other than a planned hidden payoff. Obama's home is not on a tiny lot. Nor are the homes in his neighborhood on tiny lots. Link please. Google images of Obama house and see for yourself. The Chicago Sun-Times sums up the earlier transaction: What the Sun-Times failed to mention is that the home and adjacent property had in previous transactions been sold as one unit. The appearance of course is that Obama, after he purchased the one-sixth portion of the lot, was beginning the first of several transactions to recombine the two parcels--which in essence would make Rita Rezko someone who was really involved in a backhanded loan to Obama who of course in 2005 was a US Senator. LOL. Your pundit doesn't understand real estate and uses the wrong terminalogy.....the one unit was divided into two parcels. At any time it could be sold separately no matter what its previous sales record was. And the lot was so small that Obama bought some of the adjacent lot at above market costs so he would have a yard for his kids to play. The rest of the lot was sold to someone else who is now trying to sell it for 1.6 million. Kenwood, particularly Obama's street, is a nice neighborhood-- and Obama lives on a mansion row. Its on the South Side of Chicago. His part is relatively nice but the SS tends to be very poor. A Republican wouldn't be caught dead in the South Side....Kenwood or otherwise. This area of the south side is quite wealthy - not poor. I'm sure there are Republicans there. Meanwhile McCain has 8 houses to Obama's 1. Some elitist! Elitism is a matter of attitude.
