Obamamania is finally fading across the world as Mr Obama comes to terms with the magnitude of the mess he has landed in. He has a lot on his plate and mostly back on home ground β from the dire financial crisis and Iraq to health care β there is no shortage of challenges.
Still, surprisingly, Mr Obama has made some foreign policy committment to Africa β e.g. assistance with funding for ARV for HIV patients. Something for Africans to be optimistic about though itβs not quite the equivalent of visa-free travel to the US that many were secretly hoping for in Kenya.
Well it had to come to an end eventually – suprised it lasted more than a week actually! The reality of the situation is that the world is facing a major recession and it’s unlikely Obama’s priorities will reflect anything more than his home-based issues… lol.. poor Kenyans!
priceless!…I expect that all who identify with Obama on the basis of creed and race are in for a rude awakening…he is an american ..and a politician…in that order folks!
Now now.. let’s not get too cynical about our global saviour on a Friday afternoon! LOL! Now say after me…. ‘YES we can, YES we can…!!’
a heavy dose of cynicism and a nice rum and coke!…sounds like ideal Friday afternoon entertainment!!! Obamabashing is the new black!
