Obama and one of his best friends Dr. Eric Whitaker
This stinks like another example of the
Chicagoland lies and
corruption surrounding Mr. Obama and his Administration. All of which Obama will deny and say that he knew nothing about the corruption going around around him… I find that very hard to believe!
E-mails and other records of Dr. Eric Whitaker — one of President Obama’s best friends — have been subpoenaed by a federal grand jury, the Chicago Sun-Times has learned.
The investigation involves “faith-based initiatives” and health-awareness campaigns funded by the Illinois Department of Public Health when Whitaker ran the agency for former Gov. Rod Blagojevich, according to copies of subpoenas obtained under the state’s Freedom of Information Act.
Obama has said he recommended Whitaker for that job, which Whitaker landed in April 2003. The president’s friend resigned in October 2007 to join Obama’s wife, Michelle, as an executive at the University of Chicago Medical Center.
On Friday, Whitaker defended his work as the state’s former top health official, saying he developed “new methods” to help “African-American and other minority communities” get better medical care.
“The faith-based outreach programs at issue in this inquiry were recognized during my tenure by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and others as national models for increasing awareness and preparedness planning for minority populations,” Whitaker said in a statement. “The programs were functioning well when I left the department in 2007.”
All told, Gov. Quinn’s administration turned over copies of six subpoenas sent to four state agencies that show authorities have been seeking information about a variety of health-awareness grants and programs that have cost taxpayers millions of dollars.
One sent to the health department seeks “any and all records” involving “faith-based initiatives” on subjects including “emergency preparedness,” “HIV/AIDS,” “cervical/breast cancer” and “pandemic flu” (see sidebar).
Five subpoenas came from a federal grand jury in Springfield, while the sixth came from a grand jury in Chicago. The most recent is dated March 30.
The U.S. attorney’s offices in Springfield and Chicago declined to comment, as did the White House.
Obama was friends with the terrorists William Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn, and started his political career in the terrorists’ home, but he didn’t know that they were terrorist criminals.
Obama attended the Trinity United Church of Christ in Chicago “for 20 years” where (“God Damn America”) Rev.Jeremiah Wright, baptized Obama’s kids, was a close friend of the Obama family, and even was Obama’s spiritual adviser until Obama threw him under the bus when his racist Anti-American views almost brought down Obama’s bid for the Presidency. Obama says that was never in the church to hear the his views and didn’t know how much of an Anti-American racist his pastor really was.
Obama was next door neighbors and partners in a corruption-filled 2005 land purchase with slumlord and political fundraiser Antoin “Tony” Rezko who was subsequently indicted on several counts of fraud and bribery in 2008. Obama took thousands in campaign contributions, and received a discount on his home through his friendship with Rezko, but Obama denied any knowledge of wrongdoing and said “I consider this a mistake on my part and I regret it,”
We’re missing some we know, and we don’t have time or space in this column to go over all of the problems with many of the people Obama has appointed to different posts in his Administration, but we soon will do a post about them as well.
Furthermore, look at Obama’s connection to ACORN, and the corruption filled government system in Chicago that Obama’s political career sprouted from.
If Dr. Eric Whitaker is found guilty of any criminal actions, I’m sure that Obama will throw him under the bus as well, and then deny any knowledge of what one of his best friend was involved in. I won’t be buying it though..
