Idi Amin: 
Posted on 10/12/2008 4:19:18 PM PDT by paltz
While many in the media are accusing the McCain campaign of throwing everything they have at Barack Obama in the closing weeks of this presidential election cycle, other than Mark Hyman's Washington Times commentary today and World Net Daily's online coverage, little is being discussed about Obama's support of Kenya's tyrant Prime Minister Raila Odinga.
This popular internet video at 6:26 in cites Obama's connection and support for Odinga. An edited version of this internet video exists here and an Obama/Odinga on the campaign trail is here. All 3 video embeds are at Eyeblast.tv.
The Odinga association may be even more devastating than the Bill Ayers link, because Obama cannot make the "I was only eight years old when this bad stuff happened" excuse. Also, questions are being raised if Obama may have violated the Logan Act. Additionally, Odinga's thugs were involved in the slaughter of thousands of Kenyans.
Hyman's article in the Times says the following (my emphasis throughout):
By mid-February 2008, more than 1,500 Kenyans were killed. Many were slain by machete-armed attackers. More than 500,000 were displaced by the religious strife. Villages lay in ruin. Many of the atrocities were perpetrated by Muslims against Christians.
The violence was led by supporters of Raila Odinga, the opposition leader who lost the Dec. 27, 2007, presidential election by more than 230,000 votes. Odinga supporters began the genocide hours after the final election results were announced Dec. 30. Mr. Odinga was a member of Parliament representing an area in western Kenya, heavily populated by the Luo tribe, and the birthplace of Barack Obama's father.
Hyman goes into Obama's coordinated support for Odinga:
Initially, Mr. Odinga was not the favored opposition candidate to stand in the 2007 election against President Mwai Kibaki, who was seeking his second term. However, he received a tremendous boost when Sen. Barack Obama arrived in Kenya in August 2006 to campaign on his behalf. Mr. Obama denies that supporting Mr. Odinga was the intention of his trip, but his actions and local media reports tell otherwise.
Mr. Odinga and Mr. Obama were nearly inseparable throughout Mr. Obama's six-day stay. The two traveled together throughout Kenya and Mr. Obama spoke on behalf of Mr. Odinga at numerous rallies. In contrast, Mr. Obama had only criticism for Kibaki. He lashed out against the Kenyan government shortly after meeting with the president on Aug. 25. "The [Kenyan] people have to suffer over corruption perpetrated by government officials," Mr. Obama announced.
"Kenyans are now yearning for change," he declared. The intent of Mr. Obama's remarks and actions was transparent to Kenyans - he was firmly behind Mr. Odinga.
Mr. Odinga and Mr. Obama had met several times before the 2006 trip. Reports indicate Mr. Odinga visited Mr. Obama during trips to the U.S. in 2004, 2005 and 2006. Mr. Obama sent his foreign policy adviser Mark Lippert to Kenya in early 2006 to coordinate his summer visit. Mr. Obama's August trip coincided with strategizing by Orange Democratic Movement leaders to defeat Mr. Kibaki in the upcoming elections. Mr. Odinga represented the ODM ticket in the presidential race.
Author of "Obama Nation" Jerome Corsi was recently detained in Kenya and later deported. He was in the country promoting his book. While the western media covered Corsi's detainment and deportation, the bigger picture was ignored.
Why was the Odinga government protecting Obama to the point of attacking one lone American author? More importantly, the media needs to address this: How does a tyrant like Odinga benefit from an Obama presidency?
More videos on the Raila Odinga-Barack Obama relationship continue to spring up on the web. Many questions still remain unanswered. By omission, the mainstream media is delinquent in covering this story, and it may already be dangerously too late.

Never.
Never..or November 5th....
Show me who your friends are and I’ll show you who you are.
It would be racist if they did, doncha know. /sarc
Spreading rumors that Obama supported Odinga is thoughtcrime! And remember, we’ve always been at war with Eastasia!
War is Peace! Freedom is Slavery! Ignorance is Strength!
(Sorry, just trying to get in the proper mood for an Obama administration.)
Idi Amin:
They won't. If McCain (don't hold your breath) or Palin (hmm, maybe) bring it up, however, the press will have to report it.
never if mCcain does not surprise obama in the next debate. with the question
“Senator when you took your oath of office you swore to uphold the laws and constitution of the USA, and to put your country first, would campaigning for a person like Raila Odinga fall in that category?”
I predict on the 12th of Never.
That would cause an obama studderfest on the level of trying to sing during an earthquake...
October 21st protest the media is being planned. The website needs freeper help posting information now!
What’s the big deal? Clinton and Arafat sucked face for 8 years and it didn’t seem to bother enough people to amount to anything.
It is up to McCain to get the coverage these issues deserve. If he makes nothing of them, neither will the d***-sucking 0media. They would be forced to cover those things if McCain makes them focus on it. There’s too much there for it to be buried, and people would search out the matter themselves.

Light your torches, grab your pitchforks, and tell the MSM what America is REALLY thinking about. MAKE it the news. Your email account is your weapon, and this is war. So lock and load, and use your electronic Liberty Teeth! Help Sarahcuda, and FReep the MSM!
When Will MSM Report Obama’s Support for Kenyan Tyrant Odinga?
After they report that Sarah Palin’s grandmother might know someone who knew someone who knew someone who personally shook the hand of sHitler.
Did Clinton campaign with Arafat?
