Senator Obama visits Africa

Sen. Obama visits poor in Nairobi slum "Everybody in Kibera needs the same opportunities to go to school, to start businesses, to have enough to eat, to have decent clothes," he said over a megaphone as hundreds of cheering people surrounded him. What about your voters back home? A Growing Poverty Trend Earns Illinois the Unfavorable Distinction of Being the Worst in the Midwest I appreciate his caring for other countries and other people, but shouldn’t he be taking care of Americans first? Shouldn’t he be taking care of those people who voted him into office? "I love all of you, my brothers _ all of you, my sisters" Obama told them. "I want to make sure everybody in American knows Kibera. That's why we have all the news crews." Really? The news crews are their to educate us Americans about them, or maybe they are their because you saw it as a good photo-op. I’m sure the people back in Illinois appreciate the sentiment. Once again a liberal’s action speaks louder than his words. And once again a liberal has put other people and other countries ahead of America.
