Bush "Pioneer" and WH Advance man caught soliciting bribes on tape

Think Progress has the story, and the video.
There's no other way to describe this, but to say it:
The Sunday Times reports Stephen Payne, a Bush pioneer and a political appointee to the Homeland Security Advisory Council, was caught on tape offering access to key members of the Bush administration inner circle in exchange for "six-figure donations to the private library being set up to commemorate Bush’s presidency."
In an undercover video, Payne is seen promising to arrange a meeting for an exiled leader of Krygystan with Dick Cheney or Condoleezza Rice. (Not President Bush because "he doesn’t meet with a lot of former Presidents these days," Payne says. "I don’t think he meets with hardly anyone.") All it will take for him to arrange this high-level meeting, says Payne, is "a couple hundred thousand dollars, or something like that."

So can you explain in your own words, with out quoting the Daily Pussy, how this is soliciting bribes ... who is bribing whom ? :whistle:
