When Clinton was there, times were different. Are these folks out of touch with the "new reality"?

"We are very angry. We didn't even see him,"...Well, I've never seen him either, and I'm not mad. Sheesh.

Let me guess. The State Department planned this one.

This flatly contradicts all the video footage I have seen. Typical Reuters lies.

Of course it was our President's people who made them leave...not their own goverment right. Pleeeze....

Sounds like the right security precautions were taken. Everybody on foreign soil is a potential terrorist these days, as the US soldiers in Iraq are finding out.

N'diaye and other residents of Goree, site of a famous slave trading station, said they had been taken to a football ground on the other side of the quaint island at 6 a.m. and told to wait there until Bush had departed, around midday.Well, when the Sinkmaster's motorcade rolled through midtown Manhattan about 2.5 years ago, those of us who had the misfortune to be trying to get home or just go about our business were forced to stand on the block where we were for at least a half hour before he rolled by.

Goree Island With a name like that, perhaps they'd rather it were somebody else visiting? Somebody sort of tree-like?

But be sure to send U.S. money to us on a regular basis.

" "When Clinton came, he shook hands, people danced,"
Clinton was such a juvenile, with a teenager's outlook on life. He treated every trip like it was kegger night at the frat house.I can guarantee that we will not see this President of the United States, wearing a dashiki,smoking a cigar and playing a bongo ,like Clinton did in Dakar,Senegal.

Notice there's no quotes from the President of the United States of America in the entire article? The story is about George Bush; however, not a single word of his inspiring speech was mentioned - i.e. the reason for visiting Goree Island.
When will the intellectual aparthied of the media end?
When will the people be rejoined with the truth?
