Making Joseph Kony a household name
I smell an October surprise in which obama heroically saves the day by capturing the dastardly Kony. These stories are part of the set-up. We probably already know where he is.
I was watching it (no sound) over the shoulder of my daughter. Just watching it I could tell it was propoganda - pretty slick stuff, lots of quick images to get the pulse and hope going. Especially for a young kid. Interesting to read about the methods used in this thread.
As I told my kids - there are a lot worse folks in the world than this Coney Island guy. And why should we be so worried about him all of a sudden. (Almost every youtube video has a link now about “getting koney”.) I told my kids it was probably a “wag-the-dog” type thing.
