Showing transparency, Obama releases papers
â€"David Jackson and John McCormick
8:29 AM CDT, March 23, 2008
Sen. Barack Obama's campaign released a new set of documents Saturday in
its ongoing effort to paint the Illinois Democrat as more open and
transparent in his dealings than Sen. Hillary Clinton.

The documents included the finance committee for his 2004 U.S. Senate
bid. That list included Antoin "Tony" Rezko, a longtime friend and
fundraiser now standing trial in Chicago on federal corruption charges,
as well as Rezko's wife, Rita.

In a real estate transaction that has dogged Obama, he and his wife
bought a South Side mansion on the same June 2005 day that Rita Rezko and
her husband purchased an adjacent landscaped lot.

The Rezkos were among 117 people who were listed on that 2004 committee.
The other two lists released to the Tribune included the names of 279
national finance committee members for Obama's current presidential bid
and nearly 550 past and present Senate office interns.

Many of his top fundraisers were already known, but Obama's campaign had
never before agreed to release the entire list. The other records also
had never before been provided for review.

The documents were offered a week after Obama met with reporters and
editors at the Tribune, as well as those at the Chicago Sun-Times, to
discuss his relationship with Rezko.
