Obama has a glass house in Kenwood

I did a little googling regarding Obama's residence since he's given two days of speeches about how he owns just one piddlin' ole house like us poor folks - in actuality he's inflated McCain's investment properties actually owned by his wife or her company, into this "many houses" slander. He says it grinning like the cheshire cat, when he acts like this is does soooo remind me of Reverend Wright
Anyway, this is Obama's little ole house folks

Be sure to read this text beneath the photo for it's important as is the name
Rezko
The lot on the left is the subject of the "Rezko" deal. Rezko bought the lot for the asking price, and the Obamas got $300,000 off the asking price. Rezko was recently found guilty of "influence peddling" related charges in the federal court in Chicago.
Furthermore, read this regarding Obama's relationship with Rezko, and this is just the tip of the iceberg of Obama's relationship with Rezko

Very brief chronology of the Obamas’ questionable purchase of the Kenwood mansion with indicted slumlord and notorious political fixer Antoin “Tony” Rezko:
- At the same time, Rita Rezko buys the garden plot, 5046 South Greenwood Avenue,for the asking price of $625,000
- June 15, 2005: Barack Obama and his wife Michelle buy 5050 South Greenwood Avenue in Kenwood, Chicago, for $1.65 million – $300,000 less than asking price
- January 2006: Mrs. Rezko sells a 10ft strip of garden to the Obamas for $104,500
- December 28, 2006: Mrs Rezko sells remainder of garden plot to a lawyer who works for her husband’s business for $575,000
Metal fence and trees prevent access to garden plot
- Only way into garden plot is
through the Obamas’ front gate
Have you been wondering about Obama's ex-minister Reverend Wright? Well don't worry about him, he's moving into a "gift" of a home from his church (Trinity) in a predominately white neighborhood with a country club to the tune of well over a million?????

I've been watching the networks sitting outside Joe Biden's house, and they just announced that indeed, he is Obama's choice. The house is opulent. The salary for a US Senator is currently $167,000.00 a year.
He's been in the Senate over half his life, practicing law a short time after he graduated. He went into the Senate at age 29. He has kids to support.
I think the better question is where Biden got his money. We know where McCain got his, and folks, it wasn't from his Senate career.
I suppose the same question could be asked of Obama.

CBB I agree, Biden's wife and daughter died in a tragic auto accident, I don't know if he ever remarried but like you - I'd like to know where his $$ have come from.
I bet Joe starts some of his "colorful language" before long

My ex husband's annual salary was slightly more than that of a Senator, and I'm in upper East Tennessee. Cost of Living here is far, far less than anywhere around DC or Chicago. We had a house in a
nice
, not exclusive, older neighborhood and the house was a remodeled split foyer, built in 1975 for heaven's sake! Nothing to write home about; no walk in closets, sunken tubs, etc. just 3 bedrooms, 3 baths, living room, den, small dining room, and we added a family room off of the kitchen. We had car payments, insurance, bills, and a kid who played sports so we travelled to see games. No complaints, but on less salary, Joe Biden has the "Biden Compound" within commuting distance from DC!!?
How did he afford that compound???
McCain's houses include investments from Cindy's business interests. Up until recently, houses were a great investment and smart business owners often used real estate in much the same way as investors played the stock market. The fact that he didn't know how many properties he and/or Cindy held at a given moment is no surprise to me at all. I wish he answered the question by saying, "The economy is a very critical concern for me and my wife, who actually owns a business in the private sector and has never relied on the public's tax money. She's been successful and real estate is an integral part of her portfolio, so I'm not sure how many properties she holds at present, but you can bet that I understand the concerns of the American people because it hits very close to home when opportunities are effected by economic impacts. I intend to rely on her good business sense when selecting domestic advisors and I she has my ear when it comes to keeping government at bay for business owners."

IMHO, there's a HUGE difference in how many "homes" a man owns, versus the investment property he may have. Those properties are not bought with the intention of keeping them long term, or for use as a family residence if they are rentals, so it's the old comparing apples to oranges thing. It's just another kind of business. Real estate has always been a good investment, and in slow times, investors often hold on to their properties until the market improves. Lots of poor people have gotten rich doing the same thing, starting out with one cheap house, and building their wealth over a few years by investing in property.
If Obama had a law office, and if he owned the building housing that office, it could be considered the exact same thing....an investment property. It's business.

I believe a person may own many houses and dwellings and consider none of them a home.
A person may own no property and have many homes.
A home is many things to many people. There is an old saying that home is ~
~ where the heart is
~ where you lay your head at night
~ where you hang your hat
~ where happy memories grow
~ anywhere you are
How many homes do you have?
