This is the oldest advertising trick in the book. Claim to have "breaking" news on whatever, promise big things, be vague (no actual names can be used, just things like "VIP") tell people to tune in, hang on, wait for it...in an accusatory or angry voice (+) but never give one piece of this amazing info. Ever. We've been seeing this happen for yeas and except for a few shills it only works on noobs who have only just taken an interest in things.

Some four hours later, the Birther Blog "The Post & Email" posted this:

Update, 9:14 p.m. EDT: The Post & Email has heard from Gallups, who said that he and Zullo have not yet met with attorneys general or governors at this time.

Gallups also told us:

We DID meet with VIPS of “standing.” We feel that some powerful things could begin happening if they will keep their promises. There will be more meetings at which we will present some hardcore evidence. We did a lot of talking. I will tell you this as well…we talked to one “champion” of the conservative movement -VERY PROMINENT figure who told us “I can’t get involved in that it might hurt my future political aspirations.”

Even when presented with the CRIME of forgery, fraud, etc. He said – I can’t look like a “nut” I’m not going to get involved. Unbelievable! THE TOP COP criminal investigator standing there with the evidence in his hand of one of the greatest frauds every perpetrated on America and this “darling of the conservatives” says ” I can’t get involved it might hurt me.” Oh well – PRAY about the other contacts we made and the promises we were given. I am not naive – I know there is a chance that they will all cave in on us – however, we accomplished what we came here for -step ONE!
It really sucks to be a birther.
