The above post summarises our existence today most accurately. There are always 2(or more) sides to an argument. You shine a bright light on the truth but me thinks that you stop short of telling us who you really think is resposible for this mess. By doing so you also avoid telling us what you think needs to be done to get us away from what edge of sanity calls...the brink. I believe that we owe it to ourselves and the 29,900,000+ other souls to fix this mess. This is your boma here and perhaps you may feel that it is not polite to tell off your guests...but call a spade a shovel; We.... are the cause of this problem and it's down to us, to find the solutions. Like many others, I will not be there to see Mr JW taking Mr DK up the aisle as I had a prior engagement It is true that there is so much wrong with our leaders, our institutions, and our country.

Oh wait, I knew that...married couples are most certainly the bane of our existence as a functional nation in the modern world. Yes, just terminate exactly one half of each marriage unit working in government and voila our GDPs growth will be unstoppable! Kenya will be the sole force behind the revival of the world's economy. That's the magic bullet. We just have to package and export that idea to the world and we'll be Obama's #1 creditor. How about packaging it as ABSOLUT® KENYA since the characters who hatched the idea must've been on some really strong <strike>shit</strike> stuff! M, I'm entrusting you the task of coming up with a one of a kind graphic for the marketing campaign of product ABSOLUT® KENYA. How about it? Jogoo, we are teetering on the brink of becoming a bona fide [INSERT FRESH FRUIT/VEGGIE/TUBER] Republic if we aren't one already - no bananas necessary. That paper will be an interesting read and I hope you will publish it online. WTF?
