OBAMA CROTCH SALUTE?

Obama, Hillary and Bill Richardson attended the Steak Fry of Sen. Tom Harkin (D-Iowa) in Indianola, IA, where Obama disrespected the National Anthem.

Richardson and Clinton have their hands on their heart, but not Obama who plays with his crotch. Does he perhaps believe that, like wearing the flag pin, the hand on the heart isn't "true patriotism" or is that the Muslim salute?

Kenya's Odinga Declares Obama His Cousin as PeaceTalks Called Off

The past 48 hours offered signs of hope and progress towards a resolution to the crisis in Kenya. Today saw a big step backwards.

Kenya’s opposition leader, Raila Odinga rejected talks with the president on Tuesday, describing an invitation to meet as “public relations gimmickry.” Just two days ago, Odinga indicated he was open to talks. What caused the change in heart from Odinga?

Kenya’s president named half his Cabinet Tuesday, angering opposition leaders who accuse him of stealing the recent election.

Then came word that Presidential candidate Barack Obama phoned Odinga “to express grave concern over the election outcome,” Odinga’s spokesman Salim Lone said. Obama’s father was from Kenya.

International efforts remain underway to find a way to end the stalemate between the two sides with the arrival of the African Union Chairman John Kufuor. In an odd twist, Odinga also announced the Obama was his cousin.
