Drudge Retort: Red Meat for Yellow Dogs
Monday, July 28, 2008

The small brick house with no running water, a tin roof and roving chickens, goats and cows is owned by Sarah Obama, Barack's 86-year-old step-grandmother. Inside, the walls are decorated with a 2008 Obama election sticker, an old "Barack Obama for Senate" poster on which he has written "Mama Sarah Habai [how are you?]", a 2005 calendar that says "The Kenyan Wonder Boy in the US", and more than a dozen family photos.

WOW. Just wow. Barack manages to lie to third worlders and orphans at the same town where his step-grandmom lives. She must be real popular. Poor judgment? Outright lie? Pandering to pygmies? You decide. Ha!

"Please Obwana, keep your word for once and help us!"

Mary Manasse, 40, who runs the Mama Siste Mini Shop selling staples such as bread and cow's milk (packaged in old Coke bottles) says she has a photograph of Obama shaking hands with her on his 2006 visit.

"Back then I was looking after 40 orphans at the orphan centre," she recalls. "We faced a desperate shortage of money and Obama told us that he especially liked special, dedicated projects like ours and wanted to help. We thought he would give funds to help our project but we got nothing. A few months later we were forced to shut down the orphan centre because of lack of funds. Just a million Kenyan shillings [6,000] would have kept us going another year. I feel disappointed that he did not come through."

So so sad. But hey, you know, the Obamas kids needed tap dance lessons.

How is going to help global warming OR Michelle Obama's kids????

CASE CLOSED!!!

Hey, Cookie-

Keating 5.
Boogity boogity boo.

Just like Mexicans, foreign reporters are doing the reporting that Americans wont.

As reliable as a politician's promise ...

Obama, one-half generation away from oonga-boonga.

"The small brick house with no running water, a tin roof and roving chickens, goats and cows ..."

Where is Vachel Lindsey, is it, when you need him?

Ah, yes. Vachel Lindsay - with an "a" in Lindsay.

xroads.virginia.edu

Vachel Lindsay's Congo

Where is Vachel Lindsey, is it, when you need him?

All the crappy white supremacist poets these days are writing crappy heavy metal songs.

Well, what do you expect from a guy who threw his own grandmother (the grandmother who raised him) under the bus to win a few debating points?

There is nothing in Obama's history to suggest that he cares about anything except his own success.

not to worry, cookfish - he's probably waiting until he gets into the white crib and then it'll be the rest of u.s. supporting his beloved kenya.

p.s. - he did say, "Hopefully I can provide..." there's THAT word again!

Granting us access to the school and its records, Principal Obiero, 48, tells us: "Senator Obama has not honoured the promises he gave me when we met in 2006 and in his earlier letter to the school. He has not given us even one shilling. But we still have hope."

But they still have no change in their pockets like OBwana promised.

Obama is black.

ruh?

If a little village in Africa is disappointed that Obama has turns out to be less than he appears, just wait for what's in store for the world's largest economy, the world's most powerful military, and the world's oldest government.

...the world's oldest government.

I think most people would give the UK that distinction. Others might make an argument for the Vatican and/or the Iroquois.

The US Constitution predates all the others.

"The US Constitution predates all the others."

You ever heard of the Magna Carta you fuckwad? I'm sorry but the sheer ignorance of people in the US with regards to World History just amazes me sometimes, you guys think you invented the fucking world? A clue? You didn't!

Prior to the US there were incredibly advanced societies, the Chinese, the Japanese, the Egyptians, the Romans, oh and yeah the ex-British Empire. We in the UK have gas stations older than most civilized parts of the US. Ya want to even go there?

Okay in retrospect I think that RisR's comment is a joke, cause it has to be right? I mean there really can't be people out there that stupid to believe that the US Constitution pre-dates all others, please tell me there can't be anyone out there that actually believes that?

Hey LilBrit,

He said "oldest government." Really, truly, the Vatican and the Iroquois Confederacy have to be given consideration.

I'd put the UK before the U.S., too, but others would claim that the informal changes to your constitutional monarchy are substantial enough (less monarchy, more constitution) to argue the opposite.

"Oldest working constitution" is a different question. Many would argue that the U.S. Constitution is the oldest, in part because the UK's constitution is not one single document. en.wikipedia.org

San Marino may win in all categories, though -- I don't know enough about it to have this straight.

Yes, of course, there were many advanced societies prior to the U.S., but that's not what anyone was talking about.

The operative words here are "prior", "were", and "ex".

The Constitution of the United States was ratified in 1789. The United States is still in existence, which makes the US the oldest constitutional government in the world. Yes, you have your pretty old buildings in England. So does Italy going back to the Roman days. And Germany. And Greece and Spain. And the US is not only older than Germany, Italy, Greece, and Spain--but older than all of them put together.

Be proud. The English, during their brief days of Empire, managed to build the most enduring civilizations in the world, in the Americas, in Australia, in India and Hong Kong, as well as provide the world with the language of medicine, of commerce, of banking and finance, of technology, of aviation . . . and is spoken in more countries than in any other. Thank you. See? No need to be touchy.

By the way, there's a good chance I know more world history than you. For that matter, more than anyone you've ever met. And considering that I was raised with the deepest and most profound adulation of all things English--their cuisine excepted--and, further, that I named my son "Briton" in honor of my family's unapologetic Anglo heritage, a little more humour from you should be in order, no?

Well I guess Obama will not be getting the votes of this town..... oh yeah, neither will McBullshit.

So so sad. But hey, you know, the Obamas kids needed tap dance lessons.

Well then I suggest you get off your fat ass and do something about it.

Oh the faux outrage. Why don't you send them some money to help them cockfish?

I had never heard of San Marino until I started hunting around last night, but it looks like its constitution dates to 1600 and is still the law of the land: en.wikipedia.org

Well then I suggest you get off your fat ass and do something about it.

In other words, you KNOW that some one else is going to have to help these poor people instead of your messiah who promises the fucking world but delivers absolutely nothing.

Here - I'll do just as much as Obama did for these poor people:

I promise to help the schools and orphans in Obama's daddy's town. You know, I fell more benevolent already. And it didn't cost me anything - just like Barack. Thanks.

Looks like LilClitdifferent shut the fuck up pretty quickly.

If you are so fucking appalled about these poor folks in Africa then put up or shut up. Somehow your faux outrage fails to help them. Of course to you it is just another chance to post a bunch of crap. Looks like you are throwing a poop bomb today.

So either you are genuinely concerned and will help them out or you are just posting your usual crap.

10 to 1 you are just posting crap.

My guess is that Cookfish is about as concerned about this African village as Obama is: zero.

Then again, it's unlikely Cook has relatives living there, and it's unlikely he's visited and made big promises to them which he's failed to keep.

Still, your party.

Then again, it's unlikely Cook has relatives living there

If you beleive in Adam and Eve, then he does.

I'm appalled at how brainwashed dweebs like 726 can defend and deflect for Obama's lying, and his dashing the hopes of third world orphans in his daddy's own village. Says volumes about the promises he intends to keep for all of us, doesn't it? Also says volumes for the thought processes of his zombie minions, to whom he can do no wrong.

However, the school's senior teacher Dalmas Raloo, 41, who is often used as a translator for Obama's grandmother who only speaks Luo, and is a friend of the family, says the family are mystified by what they are calling "Obama's lapse". "If you ask whether Obama's family think he should give something to the village and to the school, the answer is 'yes, definitely'. But they feel it should come from him spontaneously. They don't want to ask him for it."

Even The Obama Clan can't understand how Barack can be so heartless and unfeeling. How just plain sad. This is the new politics we can all look forward to. Hooray.

I'm appalled at how brainwashed dweebs like 726 can defend and deflect for Obama's lying

Show me a politician that is not lying and I will show you a dead politician.

GASP! All politicians lie! Oh My God!

The problem is that brainwashed dillholes like you think that only the other side lies.

Again, you brought up the issue, what are YOU doing to help out?

Oh wait, it is just a talking point to you.

There is an old African saying:

Umbagwa zulu dasheeki bongo zebra

He who would lie to his own village will most certainly lie to the world.

Or in Swahili it means:

Do not slaughter your goat and leave it in the sun all day.

The article, story, and problem isn't about me, 666, it's about Obama and his lying ways, and you know it. You can deflect from that all you want, but you know it's true. And since you're so damn philanthropic, what are YOU going to do? Talk about faux outrage! Ha! I can only point out Obama's lies, and the problems they cause. It's up to you to do something about it, like not voting for this creep. Like me.

He who would lie to his own village will most certainly lie to the world.


So you are saying his village is in Africa? That is almost too stupid to comment on.

since you're so damn philanthropic, what are YOU going to do?

Not a damn thing. Fuck em. I am not the one with the mock outrage about some village in Africa. That would be you.

Not a damn thing. Fuck em.

Barack welcomes you aboard. You have finally received, understood, and re-translated his message to the world loud and clear, you mindless robot. Good luck.

726...so the fact that BHO has done nothing is of no matter?

Like Danni pointed out... "Global Poverty Act" (S.2433)"Obama is not preparing to do much of anything with this bill,it is just a "feel good" measure saying we care about global poverty. "

Empty promises.

Oh and you'd better watch out Cook...you could be a slut puppy too!
