I’m losing interest in this by the day. The MSM will never report it.

I’ve been watching the FR all weekend waiting for this story to break. I’m suffering massive burnout.

What happened with Hannity. If it was important, Hannity would have said something

Where is it?

I thought Hannity was supposed to have Corsi on his show this evening, but it didn’t happen. Anyone know why??

Hannity is a good guy, but he misses the point more and more over the years. I first heard him in 2001. I like the guy but generally turn the station now.

"It is possible to trigger a class war by painting the Kibaki Government as an insensitive, uncaring group of Muthaiga Golf clubbers. Available research also suggests that this strategy could also resonate with poor kikuyu youth who feel economically marginalized by their own government. As part of this strategy the party should seek to elevate the emotions within all youth constituents who may ... be willing to vote for us in the protest. Visible signs of class disparity will provide important fodder for this theme."

Now I know where Obama got his campaign theme.

Hannity is very reliable with the information he passes along. He was chomping at the bit on this one. I suspect that this story is not as solid as we have been led to believe.

Dick Morris was Odinga’s campaign consultant.

Guess what Odings’a campaign slogan was?

I have waited all weekend for the Hannity show tonight for this story. Then read in FR today that Corsi was very sick, then someone stated that it was a back problem instead of illness. I listened to Hannity's radio show today for him to comment, nothing. I had Hannity TV show on tonight and again nothing. I really expected Hannity to make some kind of announcement of postponement or reschedule, but nothing.

Yeah this is BS. Hannity has already went on air with this story. Corsi is supposed to have the documents to back this up. I’m sick of these campaign busting stories bubbling to the surface only to recess back into the dark abyss.

The one thing that has worried me is, maybe this is a set up for Hannity to take a Dan Rather style hit. Maybe Hannity doesn’t feel right about it. WHO KNOWS!

Corsi was on with the Friends on Friday chatting about his Kenya ordeal...the minute he mentioned that he had these emails—Brian and Steve cut him off quite rudely. It was very telling...because the Friends are always very friendly.

There’s a there there. It’s Corsi trying to milk this for bucks. If this story were to be true a journalist would go everywhere to shout it. This guy talks on bad phone connections with Hannity and says wait till you see what I’ve gotand then he’s shilling a scoop for WND. This is another misdirection and if someone told me Corsi was being paid by Obama I’d believe it. It’s like Joe McCarthy doing so much damage to anti comminism in America that he should have been paid by the KGB.

Corsi went to Kenya for investigating work.

He got locked up by the Kenyan govt.

He paid a bunch of people off to get released.

He has left Kenya with critical documents tying Obama with the the corrupt Kenyan regime led by Odinga, his cousin.

Upon release and arrival in the UK, Corsi made claims, which may be dubious, that he escaped with several documents.

He was supposed to appear on Hannity’s show earlier but, did not.

Earlier today, it was reported that Corsi was ill after his visit to Kenya.

He, maybe, has been looking over the documents given to him and is reconsidering

Someone posted a purported email transaction on FR. It just looks too good to be true. I want it to be true. But this just reeks of Rather-gate IMO.

Crossing fingers hoping that I’m wrong.

"Hannity is a good guy, but he misses the point more and more over the years. I first heard him in 2001. I like the guy but generally turn the station now."

Hannity has single-handedly been carrying the weight of you and me and the lion's share of so many other Americans on this issue. He's been WAY out front and center and accurate on Ayers, Dohrn, Reverend Wright, Farrakhan, Rezko and shall I go on? And he has stuck with it even though most others would have caved to social pressures of "looking silly" in beating it like a rented mule.

This truly IS the age of instant gratification and armchair experts and whim.

I, for one, can never thank Hannity enough for how he's gone to bat for me as a Conservative and American, on so many issues, much LESS on just this "Obama-n-Friends" scandal.

Dang.

Even without him saying anything, it is still important. The Kenya documents could have yielded information that was unexpected... Unfortunately, that can result in a change of schedule without much in the way of explanations to others. And no, this isn’t tin foil hat territory.

I agree, Hannity has been on top of all of this and keeps it out there unlike the DEAD media. Hannity won’t put something out there until he knows it is credible, we just have to wait and see, I think people are just making sure they have things straight before breaking any new news.

The Kenyans did make a point of saying he was getting plenty of water during his stay there...

If Corsi doesn’t like Obama, why didn’t he support McCain who is the only other person who can beat Obama.
He openly supports a third party, anti war, truther, WingNut.

“”Dick Morris was Odinga’s campaign consultant.””

Listen, Dick Morris does NOT want BHO to win. With him (and he’s been pretty open about it), his campaign consulting has always been about “business”. For all his foibles, I like Morris. One brilliant strategist, and he’s repeatedly stated his support (and vote) for McCain in this election.

I'm finishing up Corsi's The Obama Nation. He's not at all sensational--more like pedestrian.

He says something, then he steps back and says it a slightly different way; it's all cited, nothing speculative.

Did we see the photos of Obama and Odinga. Did we see the MOU. Did Odinga simply take Florida 2000 to the next level.

This will be Obama's strategy, which shares things with the advice given to Gitmo detainees, to any Muslims detained for terrorism--claim your civil rights are violated.

I don't see Corsi hyping this thing; he's saying the same thing: phone records, emails, from disgruntled party members.

Odinga and daddy Double-O: Islamo-commies.

Not unlike our own O.

He got sick? He's lucky he didn't do a dioxin or polonium number.

Nobody in the Ministry of Truth wants to be touched by this leper.

Except for Hannity. He stood up for Terry Schiavo against the six-four husband who waited twenty minutes to call emts though he was a nurse--so Hannity can handle some heat.

What kind of heat followed Corsi back.

There's not too much riding on this or anything.

Double Dittos on that. I sometimes get a little frustrated that he doesn’t go further (as in the McCain/Palin interview last night), but God bless him, he’s been the first and most persistent in trying to bring a lot of BHO facts to light. You’re so right.

Have heard him interviewed on glenn beck, hannity, speaking and also taking calls on cspan. Many good points, but some credibility issues on others, and he’s sometimes a little “out there” personally. BUT, a really great (and relatively undisputed) book is The Case Against Barack Obama by David Freddoso - a very solid guy, who’s also been on beck and hannity - the book’s been a best seller for sometime now.

There is a two hour video of B.Hussein Obama’s visit to Kenya in 2006. His talking points to the Kenyans is almost a replica of his talking points for the U.S. presidency. He certainly didn’t have to work very hard to make two different speechs.
Also, what is interesting is that Dick Morris went to Kenya to drum up support for the man that B.Hussein Obama was asking the people to elect. Dick was engaging the muslims to vote for B.Hussein Obama’s friend. Yes, this is the man who appears on Oreilly and has no problem changing stripes depending on the way the wind is blowing. So I consider anything he has to say as smoke.

I understand all that. Now you just try to explain it the ACORN voters. The dems will lie and twist everything. No need to give them anything else to lie about.

This deeply disturbing pattern of Obama/Kenya connection was also covered by API (African Press International) HERE.

Last two paragraphs from the API article:

"Curiously, it has been the Kenyan press (almost alone) who have realized the potential implications: “… this is what may be the most memorable effect of the ODM’s [Odinga’s party] post-election campaign for State House. The longer their protests last, and the less disciplined they are - or the more atrocities like Eldoret [church massacre] are conducted in the party’s name- the more likely Kenya is to be stuck on the front pages of the world’s media and the more embarrassment it will bring to the Senator.” (“The Kiss of Death, How Kenya Could Spoil It For Obama” KenyaImagine 1/13/2008)

"Clearly, Obama campaigned for someone who is corrupt, ruthless and has financial ties to terrorists. More importantly, Obama campaigned for a candidate who had the stated objective of dismantling US & Kenyan government efforts to root out Al Queda and other terrorist organizations. Organizations that had already caused the deaths of hundreds of Americans and Africans in embassy bombings. Senator Obama’s actions—intentional or not—were in direct conflict with the efforts and interests of US national security. I think this raises serious questions about the judgment, maturity and readiness of Senator Obama."

Good info and source.

This is just a build up to the Thursday thingie and Hannity and the rest of them have been put off of the story so that WND can run and control the dissemination information It's all about ratings and making the most money as possible off of "breaking" news.

All the news stations do it. Hype a program days in the future so that as many people as possible will watch their "exclusive" coverage or interview.

They all have teasers. "New Scoop on Casey Situation", right after this break.

Then the keep saying that at each break and use the last minute showing someone named Casey eating an ice cream cone.

Who knows what Corsi has and what, if anything, new will be revealed.

But you can bet there will be ads and Corsi's book will be mentioned over and over again.

That's just the way it works.

WND is master of ads, I don't go to their site often at all.

I usually use my remote when this type of teaser comes up on news shows, and many times I already saw it on another channel or more likely than not here on FR (the day before usually on FR lol.)

Everything on Fox (and the rest of the visual media) these days is "breaking news" and if they are re-airing a live event, they dont' bother removing the "live" designation from the screen even if it is playing at midnite and the sun is out at the event.
