So much for African Press International
« on: November 16, 2008, 09:52:38 PM »
At least at this time, it seems that African Press, reported owner the mythical Michelle Obama tapes has imploded. As I was doing my regular blog-read I figured Id wander over to see what new fable they are spinning now, since the election has come and gone, and there continues to be no recording released to anyone, anywhere.

The whole blog is gone, suspended for terms of service violations. http://africanpress.wordpress.com/

What I now wonder, is if they will stay dead and buried, or come back in a day or two with a totally scrubbed site and a message about how evil Obama-hackers ruined them. Only time will tell  :whatever:

I have to say, I am a bit disappointed. I was expecting a good Rick-Rolling before they bid adieu.

Will I go to Hell for making a drum joke here?
If you want to worship an orange pile of garbage with a reckless disregard for everything, get on down to Arbys & try our loaded curly fries.

The new civilian brownshirts may put you in a reeducation camp or prison but send you to hell......no (That's beyond their pay grade). So let's hear it.... or at least a good conspiracy theory of why they were scrubbed from the net. 
“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

"America is like a healthy body and its resistance is threefold: its patriotism, its morality, and its spiritual life. If we can undermine these three areas, America will collapse from within."  Stalin

I always thought brown was the color you get when you mix up all the primary colors, but I'm not so sure.

What will one do without API? I know they're running around saying that Barack Hussein Obama and his goons are responible for shutting the site down, but really API themselves committed fraud - they  set up a donation site calling itself the Rainbow Foundation as if they were part of the REAL Rainbow Foundation (they are not). They were taking money fraudulently. They obtained the letterhead for the real Rainbow Foundation and used it to solicit donations (it's a charity for terminally ill kids!!). They were shut down for violation of terms of service.
