NEWS Flash!!: Obamas campaign manager offers 3 million dollars to API in connection with Michelle Obama tape to be aired by Fox News Network
Posted by africanpress on October 29, 2008
Six hours after the release of information by API on the planned broadcast by Fox News Network of the Michelle Obama tape, in accordance with an agreement that has been reached between API and Fox News Network, API was contacted by Obamas Campaign Manager.
Those who are close to the democratic presidential candidate must be desperate to win the elections no matter what, otherwise they would not have taken such bold step to contact API with an offer of a bribe in order to stop the airing of the tape.
Obamas campaign manager contacted API by telephone and email offering 3 million US dollars followed with a request to API to cancel the deal with Fox News Network.
Ten days ago API received the first request to accept 2 million US dollars by Mr Ed Hale, President of Plains Radio, Texas - USA, in an effort to suppress the information from reaching the public before the coming US Presidential elections.
API has now taken a decision to contact the American Embassy in Oslo, Norway as soon as possible in order to report the matter and hand over the evidence for investigative purposes.
The Chief editor is expected to travel to New York where he will appear on an interview in one of the shows that will air the tape.
Danae,
I mentioned earlier in a post on this thread that this is what happens when there is a presidential candidate that the people can not trust. (That is even beside the issue of there being possible collaboration of qualification standards not met and even, it sounds, national security being tossed about by someone who should not have known some of the things that were divulged on that written partial transcript of the tape.)
Your post here really describes what can happen if you get a candidate the public can not trust and then he has campaign workers who act in very questionable ways.
MichiganRed08,
I can see where you are looking at dots to see if they can be connected. Well, 1200 miles is a pretty big space for two dots to be connected, but then again, who would have thought Michele Obama would have been telling a Kenyan ex-government official turned news blogger all of Obama’s foreign affair plans!
I’m not flaming you nor am I proclaiming your theory to be right, but I do believe you are one keen individual to have noticed that, and well...... who knows.
Whatever
IMO, we have a steaming pile of bovine excrement here.
“IMO, we have a steaming pile of bovine excrement here.”
If this is true, the only logical time to release it is today, before Osama gets his 1/2 hour address to the world. If not today you are correct.
Indonesia did not recognize dual citizenship. Here is some information discussing the US policy on the topic.

My question is could you get an Indonesian passport without giving up your US citizenship at the time he traveled to Pakistan?
I know everyone is very skeptical (I am) about this tape but API must be the best scam artists in the world because we have not been able to poke any holes in this one other than them not releasing the tape.
I know FOX is denying negotiating this one but do you think they are going to admit they are in negotiations and let this story lose any sizzle? They are probably verifying the tapes to the “nth” degree and I believe these tapes will hit right after the Obama informercial.
If they don’t release the tape by Sunday then there is nothing.
I don't think this is correct.
Ya got me on that one!
If we don’t have it by Thursday night its fake.
Thats my Opinion, and I have talked to the guy.
But this seems just fantastical. I am worried for the guy. But I am also rather unsure of whats going on.
This I do know, negotians are over, and they were not over money, Korir swears he is not taking any money for them. It was more about what parts of the tape, how much, how they were to be released and the form. Things like that. There was a LOT of back and forth.
Anyway, More will be revealed, thats all I know for certain about it all.
