What makes it worse is that Kenya is like the corner of Park Place and Boardwalk of Africa.
Hail, Hail!!!
they have one of the largest slums in Africa with over 1,000,000 residents... some of the saddest pictures i have ever seen

not everyone is collecting $200 when they pass go
wow talk about a hornets nest ready to explode. I wonder what side they are on
And it's still... probably one of the best neighborhood in Africa.
...
with Sudan being the corner of Baltic and Mediterranean
Hail, Hail!!!
Compared to the rest of Africa Kenya was a dream. It was one of the most stable democracies and countries on the continent.
Yeah... but, it sounds like it's one of those places where is they don't like who you voted for, they toss your ballot in the trash can. Sort of like what Saddam Hussein used to do... no wonder he got 100% of the votes.
Hail, Hail!!!
that is why they are rioting from what i can tell, i havent followed it that close... but it appears as though the riots have spraked because of possible election rigging
no shocker

"United States President George W. Bush yesterday praised political reforms in Kenya and pledged his country's support in rebuilding the country's economy.
"Kenya is building a modern, prosperous and peaceful future and in building that future, it will have a partner in the United States," he said when he and his wife Laura hosted President Mwai Kibaki, First Lady Lucy and the Kenyan delegation at the White House.
Mr Bush said Mr Kibaki's administration was pursuing important reforms, and making the difficult and necessary and rewarding transition to permanent, multiparty democracy.
"Mr President, your courage serves the Kenyan people well, and you honour the American people with your visit," he said.
"Under President Kibaki’s leadership, Kenya is pursuing important reforms and making the difficult and necessary and rewarding transition to permanent multiparty democracy," he said. "
Hail, Hail!!!
