Ill. corruption watch: Obama donates Rezko associate's contribution to charity

There has been an air of suspicion surrounding Abdelhamid "Al" Chaib for a while, a former business associate of Barack Obama's onetime political mentor, Antonin "Tony" Rezko. So I find it odd that Obama's campaign waited until the day after Chaib's indictment to donate a 2003 campaign contribution from Chaib to charity.

Obama donated his Rezko cash to charity a couple of years ago.
