Senator Barack Obama is absent from the list of dignitaries with whom Prime Minister Raila Odinga is scheduled to confer during his current visit to Washington. Prime Minister Raila Odinga during a recent visit in London. Peter Ogego, Kenya’s ambassador to the United States, told the ‘Nation’ on Sunday that an Odinga-Obama meeting is “not in the programme” of official talks that get underway on Tuesday. [Snip]... Mr Odinga has said he is a cousin of Mr Obama’s, although the senator’s representatives deny that the two men are related...

Not related? What a laugh. On top of that Obama H went to Kenya to campaign for his Cuz. Odinga's theme for his run was also 'Change.'

Of course they won’t meet “officially”. That would be politically stupid, but they do talk on the phone frequently.

As to this nonsense about their being no relations...so, is Rail Odinga going to be thrown under the bus, too?

Regardless if cousin or friend, OBAMA DID GO TO KENYA TO CAMPAIGN FOR ODINGA.
Odinga had a pact http://directorblue.blogspot.com/2008/01/barack-obama-backs-taliban-supporter-in.html
with hard-line Islamists to force sharia law on Kenya if he won the presidency. He lost and instigated riots that caused hundreds of deaths- including 50 Christians who were burned alive in their church when it was burned to the ground.
THIS IS A CANDIDATE FOR THE PRESIDENCY OF THE UNITED STATES???
ABSOLUTELY, JAW-DROPPING, STUPIFYING AMAZING!!!

I still don’t understand why that bus gets any traction sitting on top of that pile of Obama discards.

B. Hussein has tossed aside Odinga for the Odingbats that swoon at his pep rallies.

He is using what ever traction the discards can give him under the rear wheels - to get him out of a deep hole! Looks like he might need more traction.

More flapdoodle from the Kenyan paper:

"Right-wing extremists have been circulating baseless claims on the Internet that Senator Obama is closely allied with Prime Minister Odinga, who is described by the Obama-haters as both an Islamist and a socialist."

The Obama-lovers trip over themselves because B. Hussein IS an Islamist and a socialist.

HA HA HA, not related????? Seems fib-bing runs in the family? Wonder why nobama went to Kenya, put on that funny outfit and campaigned for Odinga’s run for the presidency? I guess nobama just likes to campaign for strangers who want CHANGE?? LOL They may not meet, but I’ll bet there will be a lot of telephone time.
