Here Is Your Obama Supporters

Hundreds of villagers in Kogelo, Obama's Kenyan family home, erupted into song and dance. President Mwai Kibaki declared a national holiday on Thursday to mark Obama's victory.


Swinging branches and chairs in the air, men cheered and clapped while women shouted "Obama! Obama!" in the village where his grandmother lives and where his late Kenyan father was born.

Wild celebrations woke the sleepy village, people hugged each other as others ran aimlessly in the muddy streets after spending a chilly night glued to a giant screen watching results on US networks.

"Senator Obama is our new president. God has answered our prayer," said pastor Washington Obonyo.

"Because Obama has won, we will have a change in the whole world. And for that I will slaughter a cockrel to celebrate with my family," said Joseph Otieno, a jubilant Kogelo resident.

Have fun watching this then.

I don't think you could have done a better job of proving the point that Obama supporters tend to be uninformed more than you just did with that comment.

Prices are dropping because worldwide demand is down. Just like it went up when worldwide demand was up. Demand is down due to 2 things.
1. Prices went so high everyone cut back and learned not to travel so much 2. What is looking to be a worldwide recession.

Nice try though

I am noticing not a lot of comments on this one. HMMMMM wonder why.

Joe Solmonese, president of the gay rights group Human Rights Campaign, sent a letter to Obama this week asking him to name labor leader Mary Beth Maxwell, a lesbian, as labor secretary. Solmonese said that he did not believe there had been an openly gay Cabinet member before, but he's confident that will change with Obama.

"Not only will we expect it, but we fully believe that it will happen," he added.
