Have you read the news reports?

On Friday, the American Conservative Union, filed a formal Ethics Complaint with the United States Senate against Senator Barack Obama.

The complaint pointed out accurately that just months after Senator Obama purchased what is known as the “Greenwood Mansion” and the land surrounding it along with the wife of now-convicted felon Tony Rezko.  That’s right.  The Rezkos toured the property with the Obamas before the purchase.  They helped Obama with the purchase through buying the land right next to the house, the House’s lawn.  He bought it from the same seller on the same day.  The Obamas used the side yard as if it were theirs and eventually returned the Rezko's favor by buying back a strip of the side yard.

Yes, it is bad enough that in addition to other characters from his past, Senator Barack Obama has associated himself with a convicted felon.

What is worse is that the U.S. Senate requires all gifts to be disclosed.  However, Senator Obama not only did not disclose the use of this property as a gift on his required financial disclosure reports, he has continued to fail to do so even after this story came out.  Now the question remains, did he violate the same Gift Rules and bans that recently caused another Senator to be convicted?  The ACU believes so.

What was Obama’s reply?  His staff said, “he didn't get special treatment.”  However press reports have stated Obama paid about $1.6 million for the home – $300,000 below the original price with the land included. 

Now, as these facts have come to light, the Senate Ethics Committee, a committee led in part by liberal Senator Barbara Boxer of California, is stalling.    The Senate Ethics Committee stated it would not discuss its deliberations and that it was under no obligation to look into the matter

WE NEED YOUR HELP NOW.

We cannot allow the Senate ethics committee to sweep this under the rug.

Senator Obama should be held to the same standards as other Senators recently investigated. 


Your signature on  ACU’S OBAMA ETHICS PETITION  will help us call on the committee to fully investigate this complaint and get to the bottom of Obama’s land deal.

We cannot allow the election to get in the way of the truth.  They need to act, and they need to act now.  That is why we need you to sign this PETITION, HERE, NOW.

The Ethics Committee needs to act, and if they fail to do so or find the facts, we will continue to call on the FBI for a full, and fair, investigation.

With your help, here, now on our  ACU’S OBAMA ETHICS PETITION we will force all of the facts to come out. 

You help with this effort will allow us to make our voice heard and allow the American people to get the truth. 

Please don’t delay, help support this effort through our ACU’S OBAMA ETHICS PETITION page now.

Thank you,

Dennis Whitfield

Executive Vice President
American Conservative Union

P.S. Please don’t delay.  We cannot allow the Election to distract the Ethics Committee from their duties.    Help us, here, now on our  ACU’S OBAMA ETHICS PETITION page.
