Court papers describe Mr Rezko as a close friend of Mr Auchi. The two are involved in a large Chicago land development together. But it is unclear how long the two men have known each other or whether they were linked before the 2003 Iraq war. Neither side would discuss their relationship.

The Times has, however, discovered state documents in Illinois recording that Fintrade Services, a Panamanian company, lent money to Mr Obama’s fundraiser in May 2005.

Fintrade’s directors include Ibtisam Auchi, the name of Mr Auchi’s wife. Mr Auchi’s spokespeople declined to respond to a question about whether he was linked to this business.

1. Come on Clinton supporters. Stop it

This is the same type of BS article the Repukes have been spreading about Hillary and Bill for over 10 yrs. Now all of sudden Obama is getting this treatment and you think its ok.

Its actually rather PATHETIC

4. This is not personal

But can you imagine the republicans, and, I'm sure they already know this. I'm sure they probably have there blood hounds out there as we speak looking through every piece of paper that has Obama's name on it.

5. Guilt by association does not impress me.

We've all got six degrees between us and Satan.

Come back when you actually have something.

6. Hillary likes to say she's been thoroughly vetted.

Um, what about the last seven years during which her husband has been jetting around the world with fat-cats like Bush Sr., getting involved in every kind of deal around the world.

They're saving that stuff for the general if she gets that far.
