Jerome Corsi, anti-Obama author, detained in Kenya
(Brendan McDermid/Reuters)
A leading American neo-Conservative author has been detained by immigration authorities in Kenya as he tried to launch a book smearing Barack Obama.
Jerome Corsi, of Swift Boat Veterans for Truth fame, was this morning being held after failing to reckon with Obamamania.
He had been planning to launch his book, entitled The Obama Nation Leftist Politics and the Cult of Personality, before travelling to one of Nairobi’s slums to donate money to the Senator’s half-brother George, who was found living in squalid conditions two months ago.
But officers swooped hours after Dr Corsi was described as “author of a smear crusade” by local newspapers.
“He has not been arrested. He is just answering some questions about what he is doing here in Kenya,” said an assistant to Dr Corsi. “We have been given water and are very comfortable.”
Journalists were turned away from the hotel suite where the launch was due to be held. “He shouldn’t have had anything in the paper this morning,” said one. “That was his mistake. He should have kept it secret.”
Dr Corsi said he had a $1,000 cheque for George Obama, seen as part of a stunt to suggest that the Senator was not taking care of his Kenyan-based relative.

A video on Kenya re: elections (keep in mind this guy’s films are usually leftist slanted):
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l-CCzerh39g&feature=related
I have to dig and find the articles from the Kenya press re: anger at Obama for campaigning for Odinga and getting involved in their elections.
Know also there were two charities shut down re: terror support, that involved Val Jarrett, Obama’s right hand and beneficiary of housing grants as well (Habitat Co.) and another charity that gave directly to Odinga Obama was connected to. There was also Friends of Obama who gave to Odinga. Side Note: Dick Morris (yes, that one), helped Odinga with the election (I wonder when he’ll speak on that).
Will be back with Odinga’s claims on video re: Obama vids.
Will the combatants wear uniforms? A lot of good, innocent people are going to be hurt if they don’t.
Well there is nothing false about any of that ...
Obama is offering a RADICAL, Leftist change agenda.
Obama attended a Radical Church led by Jeramiah Wright that espoused the hatred of Whitey.
Obama was born to a Muslim Father and had a Muslim Stepfather he has never been ashamed to admit that when it suited him politically, if he decided to convert to christianity whats the big deal.
Anyone who sat in TUCC for 20 years listening to Wrights diatribes is obviouls seething with Rage against the (SYSTEM).
So I guess its just a matter of perspective then huh...
Heads up, Corsi on the phone from Kenya on Quinn and Rose at WHLO. They asked if Odinga did it directly, he said they may ask Obama. They asked who they should call for him, he said Obama’s office to ask why he’s retained.
Eish. Just finished.
Behold the spin:
Just heard:
Rose noted the report claimed Corsi didn’t have a work permit? And the guy holding him said he hasn’t decided what to do with him?
It’s time to pull some phone records, not just for two years, back to his start in Chicago.
geez
Jerome Corsi, who wrote The Obama Nation: Leftist Politics and the Cult of Personality, was being held at immigration headquarters in Nairobi after police picked him up from his hotel Tuesday, said Carlos Maluta, a senior immigration official in charge of investigations.
“We still haven’t decided what to do with him,” Maluta told The Associated Press. He said Corsi did not have a “special pass” to work in Kenya and officials were checking his immigration status.

Inquiring minds want to know...
Let me tell you...
I have told everyone, especially the sheep who support him, to read his books, since they love him so much (you would think they would want to know all about their hero, right?). You will see his contradictions straight from him. People have to remember all the black racism was denied by his friends he wrote of in his book.
I have seen at least two incidents in Springfield that almost came to blows involving him back in the day. Of course it’s scrubbed, but i’m still looking... hoping someone he stiffed (and there were many who’ve been silenced), snuck it back up. If you remember, he had a incident or two on the floor, but I can’t even begin to search CSPAN since I don’t remember the date.
This guy does everything he can to hold his rage down.
He also has no conscience, as if a chips missing.
But let’s just say when his grandfather took him to Koa cottages as a young boy to Frank Marshall Davis, he didn’t only learn Marxism at his knee. Webs are pretty scrubbed, but you will find the real reason Marshall left Chicago with his wife, he liked young boys. It’s no telling what Obama’s been through, but this country giving him power is no way to work out his issues and hate. He doesn’t even know who he is, much less than the public knowing.
Up to now the FEC, FBI and CIA have refused to act, even though it’s obvious he has not been vetted, in spite of folks in high places that can change passports (that’s what the fake break-in was about btw, the head guy’s company who held the contract and one of the workers caught were Obama supporters). We have to know how he was vetted and passed the clearance for senate... naming names.
I don’t know what is going to happen. I have a bad gut feeling about it. Every once in a while the citizens have to fight if they want to keep liberty. I wonder if they do?
DEPORTED...
Breaking on FOX...
People need to be very afraid of OBAMA connectionss.
If Obama wins the next country Corsi will thrown out of will be this one.
FoxNews just reporting that Corsi has been deported from Kenya.
Farrah (World Net DailY) on phone to FoxNews says he has NOT been deported. ‘Customs form’ has been ‘lost’.
[Farrah & Megyn Kelly arguing about contents/facts/lies in Corsi’s book.]
Megyn says Corsi was in Kenya to promote book. Farrah disagrees and says he was there for research.
Farrah implies that Corsi has not been told why he is being detained. Corsi believes he will be released in a couple of hours.
Corsi a neo-con? No way. He's a Chuck Baldwin supporter.
You don't have to be a neo-con to dislike the thought of Obama becoming President.
Perhaps they should look where Obama keeps his birth records.
why on earth would you want to try and launch a book in Kenya, that dump and I have been there to Mombasa.
The media just will not do their job at all
I always liked Kelly, but she came off as a combative airhead, and not the least bit interested in the truth.
Corsi’s a brave man, knowing what he knows, having researched The 0ne, to go to Kenya.
I wonder if there is anything we can do for him?
“which are cobbled together from debunked Internet sources to make money and advance a partisan agenda. “
lol! Most of Corsi’s book is based on Dreams of my Father!
But Megan Kelly had the AP report, which she treated as Gospel.
