Federal prosecutors moved Monday to delay indefinitely the sentencing of convicted fundraiser Antoin “Tony” Rezko, sending their strongest hint yet that he is ready to spill his political secrets.
The filing asks for a postponement while prosecutors and defense attorneys “engage in discussions that could affect their sentencing postures.”
Speculation has simmered for weeks that the key fundraiser for Gov. Rod Blagojevich and Sen. Barack Obama was whispering what he knows about corruption in Illinois government to federal prosecutors in hopes of getting a lighter sentence.
Rezko raised more than $1 million for Blagojevich’s campaign fund and was one of the governor’s key advisers. He was frequently by the governor’s side in the early days of his administration and could be in a position to shed considerable light on federal investigations into patronage hiring and a host of other issues involving Blagojevich.
Here it is, the Dems and the Lib press trying to hide till after the election what might do great damage to Obama.
Funny one of the things the lib congress is doing right now is trying to make Bush look bad in the wake of his firing of all AG’s. The only one close to being anything out of the ordinary involves one AG who would not prosecute a Lib prior to an election in New Mexico.
He wanted to try to keep it quiet till after Kerry Bush. Now they are doing the same thing. Only its working for the libs.
There is so much bs in the life of Obama that should be in public. I just don’t see how even the Lib MSN can refuse to pick it up.
