I'll be Damned. What a Small World.

From today's news concerning the FBI agent testimony at the trial of former Illinois Governor Blagojevich:

"...two government witnesses, business executives Robert Williams and Michael Winter, testified that they had worked at a company owned by convicted political fixer Tony Rezko following Blagojevich's 2002 election, when Patti Blagojevich received a $12,000-a-month consulting fee from the firm for seven months.

"The two men testified that she showed up at the company only occasionally, often with her children in tow, and never seemed to take any major part in the development firms projects.

"Williams said Rezko told him he wanted to find ways of getting money to Patti Blagojevich."

Rezko! Tony Rezko??! Wasn't that the guy who, at about the same time he was helping Blogojevich, aided President Obama (when he was Illinois State Senator) to buy his home in Chicago and buy the adjacent lot so nobody could build next door to it?
