Proof Obama backed Odinga Set up direct Senate contact for Kenyan opposition leader -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Posted: October 10, 2008 12:05 am Eastern By Bob Unruh © 2008 WorldNetDaily Sen. Barack Obama designated a personal aide as his direct contact for the 2007 Kenyan presidential campaign of Raila Odinga, who later was appointed prime minister after his election loss was followed by widespread, deadly violence that destroyed or damaged 800 Christian churches, according to e-mails obtained by WND senior staff writer Jerry Corsi during a trip to Kenya. Corsi attempted to release this and other information at a Tuesday press conference in Nairobi. The WND reporter and No. 1 New York Times bestselling author was detained by Kenya security officers as soon as he entered the hotel to make his presentation. He was held incommunicado and without food for the entire day before being permitted to board his regularly scheduled flight out of the country to London, where he is currently recuperating from the ordeal. As WND has reported, Obama openly campaigned for Odinga during the Illinois Democrat's 2006 Senate "fact-finding visit" to Kenya. Odinga called for protests over alleged voter fraud after losing the December 2007 general election. The resulting protest violence left an estimated 1,000 members of the dominant Kikuyu tribe in Kenya dead and an estimated 500,000 displaced from their homes. The links between Obama and Odinga were documented by copies of two e-mails obtained by Corsi during his meetings in Kenya with various government officials and others. The e-mails, apparently sent by Obama himself, referenced the senator's aide, Mark Lippert. The e-mails were provided to WND by an insider in Kenya who fled Odinga's Orange Democratic political party and requested anonymity because of the danger of retaliation.

Corsi took us for a ride & is a fraud trying to sell books. Bad back? Yeah right....lol.
I thought links always use / not .
They have changed the email. The first one had December Z2, 2008 and it was a B&W copy.
Now this one says December 22, 2006
Man, I want this to be true, but points like this make me think otherwise.
I hate WorldNut. They ticked me off years ago with their ‘Saddam’s Weapons of Mass Destruction have been found’ article.
Corsi has some splain’ to do. If this is indeed a fraud I think we should not post anymore of WorldNut’s articles.
If this is fake. Then do you think the supposed Michelle Obama audio is fake as well?
Something smells here.
This just looks fake as hell to me. I don’t know about this.
I hope to God above that I’m wrong.
This is it?
Doctored emails?
Hopefully Corsi runs into hiding.
Yeah and this guy is involved in the Michelle-gate Bullsh!@.
I wonder if the audio is Queen Latifa!!
If they can do it to us, why not we to them? Any intrepid hackers out there want to see what’s in Raila’s yahoo account?
The man is responsible for the murders of a thousand people, 800 Churches burnt... I am not goin no where near that!
Based on the other postings, I’d have to say this email exchange business is grade-B bullsh*t. Corsi just did himself and the entire McCain-Palin campaign a huge disservice.
The Corsi fraud will be a top story “McCain backer caught forging Obama emails” or something along those lines. Mark my words.
You can’t change the fact Obama was openly campaigning for Odinga on a “Fact finding” junket on tax payer dime. There is video and photographic as well as eyewitness accounts.
I wish people would stop burning the message with the messenger.
I don’t know fi they are real or not, but for DAMN sure the Kenyan Government was concerned enough to shake down Corsi. That alone is saying something.
OK, I could see a 6 being typed as an 8, but why would someone think 22 should be typed Z2? They aren’t too close on the keyboard. I don’t think most people have ever made that mistake. I think it is a scan of a fax, therefore, it is horrible.
This was so important to Corsi that he risked his life to tell about it last week. And it is still so important, he has delayed the thing for another week. Hmmm.
True, but that’s old news. It’s been known for quite some time—over a year—and has not got legs by itself. There’s no smoking gun and Corsi’s attempt to forge one, I fear, has really hurt the McCain campaign. It will force McCain to distance himself even further from attacking Obama’s associations. This is really, really bad.
Actually, I would correct this and my own statements. Upon closer reading, it is Unruh who is claiming that the bogus emails were sent to him from some dude who allegedly had to flee Kenya. That’s even worse, because Unruh is the news editor for WND, and it now calls into question every anti-Obama article they’ve published.
My thought has always been: if they told him, “see you in hell” then they KNOW who he is. Why didn’t they just kill him? They’ve had no problem chopping the skulls of the opposition in the past. Why stop now?
There is no smoking gun, but the fact remains that Obama did campaign for his cousin, it was on the taxpayers' dollar (right?), Odinga is an E. German educated socialist, he did sign an agreement with Muslims, and there were deadly riots when he lost because he claimed vote fraud. There does NOT need to be a smoking gun. Everyone I have shared this with who isn't a diehard leftist is shocked. I have changed a few votes. McCain shouldn't back off. The facts speak for themselves.
If Corsi had something and if he was a true American he would have flown right back to the states and presented it very quickly to the media so that it was put out there to the American public. We are getting down to the wire and all this drama crap coming from Corsi is complete BS.
Now is not the time to be playing games with the American people. If Corsi has something I say cough it up and cough it up NOW.
