Reply #59: What I want to know

[Marie26]

is what Rezco got for his investment. Rezco has given Obama at least $500,000 dollars, managed his campaign finance fund, made other people contribute to Obama, etc. But we never hear what Obama did for Rezco in return, except writing a recommendation letter. I don't think Rezco gave all this money to Obama out of the goodness of his heart; he must have been expecting something in return. And a recommendation letter doesn't justify the amount of payoffs that he gave to Obama. Obama must've done a whole lot more to help Rezco, & I want to know what that is. I suspect that Obama may have directed those million-dollar contracts Rezco's way; and he may have had a role in persuading city inspectors to look the other way. It's not fair to hold Obama responsible for Rezco's slums, but if he had a role in getting Rezco the contracts to build these slums, he is indirectly responsible.
