It takes a village

Hog On Ice and a words vs deeds situation. Clearly, he has failed to consider how this helps Michelle's children (via Five Feet of Fury).

I keep thinking about Obama, bailing out on his own family in Kenya. He was going to help his family's village build a school, and they have been waiting two years, and he hasn't done a thing. Imagine how painful that must be to the people he let down. Imagine the hope he put in their hearts and then allowed to wither.

Here's a question. If this is how he keeps promises to his own relatives and their friends, how well will he keep his promises to us?

Now look at John McCain. A man who adopts other people's children and refuses to make hay of it. Hey, I know the answer. Let's have John McCain adopt Obama's village.

Speaking of Muslims African political culture: Is there such a thing as douchebag rehab? Now wondering if fava beans are halal minus the rough chianti.

Exit question: What kind of father names his daughter Aisha? There are a lot of awkward sixth birthday parties in the world, evidently.

A huge fan of H. Rider Haggard?
