No Maryann, you are wrong. Most definately I am not bitter but affirming facts of the matter, that I belong to the forum and that I am one of you in spirit or otherwise irrespective of distance. One, I am a Kenyan because I have friends and relatives in Kenya and my parents are Kenyans. Two I am passionate to stand firmly to protect our Constitutional liberty, three I am an African and Africa's survival is at stake. Four Samuel Omwenga is in a mission with GOP to play dirt and our ears are on the ground that he and others had the banner put up to slur our loving President. Also, I see no reason to appologize when I challenge a good cause to protect my constitutional freedom. To ask, if Kenya ni ya baba yako is no offense or is it an insult. It is only in your fathers house that you can chase intruders. So that is normal. These are touchy matters and I needed to asscert my point and drive the message at home. President Obama helped Kenya gain the Constitutional through the fiercely challenged Referendum which the corrupt thievers maintained a NO stand. This is the biggest benefit to Kenya and Kenyans and I will not watch as Samwel Omwenga a goon commission agent want to spoil. I was waiting giving him time to expose himself by poping his head out. I was ready for him.......Now that you are shocked about his comment, I am waiting for his comments. It is no wonder I ran down those factual points to drive my message home and to defend my case from your claim of dissassociating me with the topic in point. To de-link me from PK is like you are treated me like an outcast.. the way the GOP and Mitt Romney are treating President Obama. So I did not expect you discriminating on me. The world is a Global village marketplace and online social network has made is so easy for us to interruct. Why not take these modern technology and make ourselves available to each other and relating more intimately ....... we need each other, correct what is wrong and move on......It is the reason why I thought I am more at home even though I am in America. As children we dissagree but we still remain friends....... Cheers Maryann .....

Meanwhile, I am seriously thinking about doing a 30-year High School Reunion in Thika cum Christmas Party later this year featuring my GF then, her husband, children and grandchildren, if I can so persuade the First Lady of this household and may just invite this Maryann and other "enemies" to come join us and other friends/school mates from the time. Going by recent invitations that have been avoided as the plague, though, I doubt she'll be game. Papa L are you game? You know the grandma I am talking about, don't you? BTW, talking about grandmas, one flamboyant Senator from Wisconsin by the name Alan Simpson said on occasion of someone's birthday some years ago it never occurred to him before that he would one day have sex with a 70-year old woman but he was looking forward to doing just that later that day. The occasion was his wife's 70th birthday. Peace, Unity and Truth Omwenga On Sun, Sep 2, 2012 at 2:23 PM, <tomoreje@gmail.com> wrote: This is why I love wars.

It is a more reason why I feel compelled to share with the local network. 4) Kenya Army, Government personnel and education salaries come from abroad and it is important that people share political information that affect affect their country so to improve global way of doing things that benefit all. 5) Information is power and my sharing in diverse including local Kenyan forums is for information and sharing so we are able to improve our destiny 6) Time for global thievers where African have been turned to slaughter houses pain and sufferings to benefit thievers must end........Congo is on fire, Somalia is on fire....... 7) Africans including Kenyans need to know genesis of their problems and it is why countries like Portuguese and Greece are falling apart.

No, this will not stop President Obama from reaching out across the country to real voters passionate for the Reform Change from those who dragged the country into the economic mess we are into.......If they are REAL men, they ought to have helped the President to fix things and not stay on the Obstructionism and blocking the President from implementing public service, the needed jobs to improve the economy......a mess they created from their selfish greediness.......
Only hooligans and sycophants with no focus have this kind of mentality attitude…….. This behavior is drifting and dividing people apart on ethnicity biasness and on racial overtones that must not be encouraged.
People, it is not the negative useless writings with invisible people sitting on chairs that are able to give us good leadership……..are some crazy people trying to reduce America to sycophancy and goons that have failed the third world…….are these people trying to compare a Super America to the third world……..Aint this crazy……???
People, engage and vote with your conscious, we all do not deserve this kind of behavior, not in America……..this clearly shows they are out of objectiveness from professional challenging materials………seems, they have no more ideas…..but, sanity must stay upstage people…….
America is too important and significantly the most powerful on the face of the world to be drugged into such a messy lack of principles, discipline with less ideologies.......These are amateurs lacking the skills of a professional aptitudeness who needed training (for preparedness) before being sent out to a mission..........

Judy Miriga Diaspora Spokesperson Executive Director Confederation Council Foundation for Africa Inc., USA http://socioeconomicforum50.blogspot.com Fiery Obama embarks on march to the Dem conventionBy BEN FELLER and DAVID ESPO | Associated Press – 8 hrs agoAssociated Press/Nati Harnik - President Barack Obama speaks during a campaign stop in Sioux City, Iowa, Saturday, Sept. 1, 2012. (AP Photo/Nati Harnik)CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — President Barack Obama lampooned the just-completed Republican National Convention as better-suited to an era of black-and-white TV and " trickle-down, you're on your own" economics Saturday, and declared that Mitt Romney "did not offer a single new idea" to fix the economy. "There was a lot of talk about hard truths and bold choices, but no one actually told you what they were," Obama said in Iowa, chuckling, as he set out on a three-day tour of battleground states in the run-up to his own convention. Later, Obama said, the Republican gathering was so rooted in the past, there should have been a rabbit-ears antenna on the convention hall. Yet even the site of Obama's convention, Charlotte, N.C., served as an unwelcome reminder to the Democrats of an economy so weak that it threatens his chances for re-election. The president carried North Carolina in 2008, but the state's unemployment rate is pegged at 9.6 percent, well higher than the nation's 8.3 percent and tied with next-door South Carolina for fifth from the bottom. Obama's convention opens Tuesday at the Time Warner Cable arena with evening speeches by first lady Michelle Obama and San Antonio Mayor Julian Castro, the keynote speaker. The president will be nominated for a new term on Wednesday, when former President Bill Clinton also will speak. Vice President Joe Biden delivers his own acceptance speech the same evening. Obama's prime-time acceptance speech, to be delivered at the outdoor Bank of America Stadium, caps the convention on Thursday night. Aides predict a capacity crowd will hear the speech at the site, which has a capacity of nearly 74,000 for football. Democrats are taking their turn in the convention spotlight just days after the Republicans met in Tampa, Fla., to nominate former Massachusetts Gov. Romney for the White House and Wisconsin Rep. Paul Ryan to be vice president. A parade of speakers in Tampa excoriated Obama's handling of the economy, which is struggling in the weakest recession recovery of the post-World War II era. The economy has been the top-rated issue in opinion polls all year, and the president is eager to turn the focus onto Romney on that subject. Republicans "will take us backwards," Obama said, to the age of "trickle-down, you're on your own" economics that begin with tax cuts for the rich but tax increases for the middle class. The president made a brief detour to foreign policy in his speech. "Gov. Romney had nothing to say about Afghanistan this week or the plans for the 33,000 troops who will have come home from the war by the end of this month," he said. The Republican challenger "said ending the war in Iraq was tragic. I said we'd end that war and we did," Obama said. Romney said late last year, in a veterans roundtable, "The precipitous withdrawal is unfortunate. It's more than unfortunate, I think it's tragic. It puts at risk many of the victories that were hard won by the men and women who served there." Obama, pointing to successes, declared, "I said we'd take out bin Laden and we did." His audience cheered the mention of the demise of the architect of the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, who was killed in his hideout in Pakistan by U.S. Navy SEALs last year. Obama ordered the raid, and even Republicans credit him for the decision. Romney campaigned in Ohio during the day — the opening of the college football season — and proclaimed it was time the country had a winning season after years of a sluggish economy and high unemployment. Referring to the number of jobless in the country, Romney told his own cheering crowd, "If you have a coach that's zero and 23 million, you say it's time to get a new coach." He also pledged to cut the federal deficit and "get us on track for a balanced budget." Yet Romney has yet to produce a budget for public inspection. Nor did he mention that, as chairman of the House Budget Committee, Ryan wrote a plan projecting the deficit would decline each year from 2013 through 2017 but then begin an inexorable rise again. Additionally, the federal debt is projected to rise each year, from a current level of nearly $16 trillion to an estimated $25 trillion at the end of 2022. Obama made Iowa his first stop on what his campaign billed as "The Road to Charlotte." Obama spoke in Urbandale, outside Des Moines, on a sprawling 500-acre property. With barns, American flags and Obama banners all around, the late summer scene offered him the quintessential heartland backdrop. He later spoke at a rally in Sioux City. He told the crowd Iowa was first on his schedule "because it was you, Iowa, who kept us going when the pundits were writing us off." There was another reason, as well. Polls make the state one of eight or so battlegrounds where the election is most likely to be decided. The president carried Iowa in 2008, and in an indication of the struggle he now faces, he has been lavishing time on it in recent weeks. He spent three days in August on a bus tour that traversed the state from west to east. Following two stops in Iowa, Obama was flying to Colorado for a Sunday appearance before college students at the University of Colorado. Obama's schedule for Monday includes an appearance in Toledo, Ohio, yet another battleground state, before a trip to Louisiana to inspect damage from Hurricane Isaac. Romney visited Louisiana on Friday. Television ratings for the final night of the Republican convention were lower than four years ago. The Nielsen Co. said an estimated 30.3 million viewers watched Thursday night's coverage of Romney's acceptance speech. That was down by one-fourth from 2008, when John McCain spoke on the final night of the Republican gathering in St. Paul., Minn. ___ Feller reported from Urbandale and Sioux City, Iowa. Associated Press writers Kasie Hunt in Cincinnati, Beth Fouhy in Charlotte and Steve Peoples in Columbus, Ohio, contributed to this report. Iowans Send Message to ObamaBy Devin Dwyer | ABC OTUS News – 13 hrs agoABC OTUS News - Iowans Send Message to Obama (ABC News)SIOUX CITY, Iowa - President Obama received a less than warm welcome and a warning upon arrival at the airport here on the second stop of his Iowa visit, which was aimed at recapturing some of the magic the state gave his run to the White House in 2008. Greeting Air Force One as it touched down under sunny skies and sultry heat was a hand-painted banner draped across the top of an airplane hangar that reads, "Obama Welcome to SUX - We Did Build This." "SUX" is the airport code for Sioux City. The message appeared to be a response President Obama's "you didn't build that" remark from a July campaign rally, when he was trying to explain that government - not businesses - constructed public infrastructure on which the economy relies. Republicans have used the four words to attack Obama as out of touch with the realities of owning and operating a small business. The banner is a reminder that this part of the state remains hotly contested turf for both Obama and his Republican rival Mitt Romney, just as the campaign enters the home stretch. Sioux City, which sits on the border with Nebraska in the northwest corner of the state, is territory Obama lost in 2008 to Sen. John McCain, even though he won the state overall. Obama won 49 percent of the vote here to McCain's 50 percent, a difference of just 500 votes. Obama also won the Iowa caucuses, an early confirmation that his message was resonating with Democrats. This time around, the president's campaign believes it can turn the Sioux City region blue by appealing to middle class values and highlighting the administration's record of tax cuts for small businesses and families. Polls show Iowa, which Obama won handily four years ago carrying 54 percent of the vote, is up for grabs in November. Obama and Romney have been locked in a dead heat since early this year. "Iowa, this is our first stop on the road to our convention in Charlotte, North Carolina. But there was a reason for me to begin the journey right here in Iowa, where it first began more than four years ago," Obama told a crowd of 10,000 in Urbandale, Iowa, earlier in the day. "Because it was you, Iowa, who kept us going when the pundits were writing us off. It was in your living rooms and backyards and VFW halls and diners where our movement for change began," he said. "And it will be you, Iowa, who choose the path we take from here." A campaign spokeswoman said the banner was not visible from the presidential motorcade. There were no identifying markers on the hangar or the banner to suggest who made it, and a call to the Woodbury County GOP was not immediately returned. The president is on the first of a four-day tour through battleground states, leading up to his formal nomination for the presidency at the Democratic National Convention on Thursday. He spends Sunday rallying supporters in Boulder, Colo |
