Please show me - QUOTE me - where I absolved Odinga of his role in the current troubles. Show me my EXACT words where I said, "It's not his fault". You can't - because I didn't say it.
Odinga's role is not that of the criminal mastermind; he doesn't have the capacity to do it. His role is precisely what YOU yourself said: stumbles with words like a Jimmy Stewart, but, like Stewart, is a consumate actor. That is his role in this: the public face, the recognizable icon, the image for which women swoon and men get tingles. And his reward for a good performance is vacations, fine dining, and the adulation of the masses.
No, I do not absolve Odinga. He is as much a part of this as the rest of the ensemble cast in this drama. If you wish to hold him accountable for every evil in America, that is your perogative. When that glorious day of days arrives, and he IS held accountable, I will be right there beside you eating popcorn and singing Kate Smith songs.
But as an intelligence soldier, the shadows are my realm. And I watch the figures lurking there, and I will not lose them, for they are to be held in judgement as well.
Hillary? Hillary was groomed by them for at least 8 years, probably more, even to the point of having a New York Senate seat given to her during the Bush years while everything else was being set in motion and the known kinks straightened. Sometime between 2000 and probably 2007, Hillary was weighed by her handlers regarding her ability to handle the task they had for her. And was found wanting. Hence ,we got Obama. And to reward her [Hillary], appease her, or whatever term you prefer, she was given the Secretary of State position for a time and then she was to fade from the scene. However, Hillary being Hillary did not fully understand the message and began or letting her disciples make sounds regarding a run for the Democrat Party nomination for President in 2016. I believe that this was the purpose for the Nichols "revelation". It was to be a shot across Hillary's bow. Whether Hillary understands or cares remains yet to be seen. If not, different methods will be used.
Bill, I believe was warned when he left office to keep a low profile, refrain from public controversy , speak only when given permission and he could live a long happy making a lot of money and spreading as much venereal diseases among the fairer sex as he pleased. Bill has heeded his instructions. Time will tell as to Hillary.
I cannot prove a word of what I just wrote, nor can I prove the sun will rise tomorrow morning, but I believe it will and I believe that is what transpired with Bill and Hillary.
