Last week, I wrote about the small mountain range of documents that Barack Obama has refused to release, or claimed that have been lost or otherwise unavailable. Among them are his law records relating to work he did for a nonprofit working with Tony Rezko, the developer convicted of fraud and bribery who Obama bought his house from. I noted:

He and his former law firm say Obama only did a few hours of work for nonprofit firms connected to convicted donor Tony Rezko, but no records have been released to confirm that. (A Huffington Post blogger claims those records were released, but the link she cites doesn’t work.)

A reader did some digging into the non-functioning link.

The link seems to be the AP story repeated here:http://www.libertylounge.net/forums/26010-obamas-relationship-alleged-fixer.htmlciting a (also broken link) Yahoo AP report. http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080122/ap_on_el_pr/obama_indicted_donor There’s no indication from the story that it was based on released records.

I guess it’s easier to avoid scrutiny for not releasing billing records when bloggers who support you claim that you have.
