Unafiki wa Marekani

PRESIDENTIAL AND VICE PRESIDENTIAL CHOICES
I'm a little confused. Let me see if I have this straight.....
If you grow up in Hawaii, raised by your grandparents, you're 'exotic, different.'
Grow up in Alaska eating mooseburgers, and its a quintessential American story.
If your name is Barack you're a radical, unpatriotic Muslim.
Name your kids Willow, Trig and Track, you're a maverick.
Graduate from Harvard law School and you are unstable.
Attend 5 different small colleges before graduating, you're well grounded.
If you spend 3 years as a brilliant community organizer, become President of the Harvard Law Review, create a voter registration drive that registers 150,000 new voters,
spend 12 years as a Constitutional Law professor, spend 8 years as a State Senator representing a district with over 750,000 people, become chairman of the state Senate's Health and Human Services committee, spend 4 years in the United States Senate representing a state of 13
million people while sponsoring 131 bills and serving on the Foreign Affairs, Environment and Public Works and Veteran's Affairs committees, you don't have any real leadership experience.
If your total resume is: local weather girl, 4 years on the city council and 6 years as the mayor of a town with less than 7,000 people, 20 months as the governor of a state with only 650,000
people, and cook caribou/grizzly/wolf stew, then you're qualified to become the country's second highest ranking executive.
If you have been married to the same woman for 19 years while raising 2 beautiful daughters,
all within Protestant churches, you're not a real Christian.
If you cheated on your first wife with a rich heiress, and left your disfigured wife and married the heiress the next month, you're a Christian. (McCain Huyo)
If you teach responsible, age appropriate sex education, including the proper use of birth control, you are eroding the fiber of society.
If , while governor, you staunchly advocate abstinence only, with no other option in sex education in your state's school system while your unwed teen daughter ends up pregnant , you're very responsible.
If your wife is a Harvard graduate lawyer who gave up a position in a prestigious law firm
to work for the betterment of her inner city community, then gave that up to raise a family,
your family's values don't represent America's.
If your husband is nicknamed 'First Dude', with at least one DWI conviction
and no college education, who didn't register to vote until age 25 and once was a member of a group that advocated: the secession of Alaska from the USA, your family is extremely admirable.
OK, much clearer now.

Aibu! Senator Ajiuzulu baada ya kufanya mambo ya kishoga chooni!


Makubwa! Kumbe huko chooni kwa wanaume kuna mambo. Ukiona mwanaume anagonga gonga mguu, au kupitisha mkono wake chini ya kitenganisho au kucheki nani kakaa kwenye choo ni ishara za kishoga!
Bila shaka mmesikia kuwa Senator Larry Craig, wa Idaho amejiuzulu leo baada ya skandali iliyompata. Akiwa safarini alipatwa na nyege choo huko kwenye uwanja wa ndege ya Minneapolis Minnesota. Sasa akawa anamtafuta mtu wa kumridhisha. Alidhani kampata kumbe anaopoa polisi aliyevaa kiraia! Polisi huyo alimkamata na Senator Craig alikiri mashtaka dhidi yake na kulipa faini na kukwepa kufunga jela. Alikiri kwa vile alidhani mambo yataisha pale. Kumbe kuna gazeti iliyokuwa inasaka habari zake. Ndo hao waliotoa habari za maovu yake na kukamtwa kwake huko Minneapolis.
Kichekesho zaidi, alidai kuwa aligonga mguu wa huyo polisi aliyekaa choo cha pili kwa vile, akisimama kukojoa anapanua miguu sana. Waandishi wa habri walifanya majribio na kuona haiwezekani hasa kama umeshusha suruali kwenye magoti!
Hayo mambo yapo sehemu nyingi hapa Marekani, lakini kitu ambacho nimechukia kuhusu Senator Craig ni kuwa ni Mnafiki mkubwa! Nasema ni mnafiki kwa sababu alikuwa anakashifu mambo ya kishoga na kupinga mambo ya ndoa za wasenge, na kujidai ni mtakatifu. Kumbe yeye ni moja wao. Hivyo yule shoga aliyejitokeza na kusema kuwa alifanya mapenzi na Senator Craig chooni Washington D.C. mwaka jana hakuwa mwongo.
Na mjue kuwa Republicans wenzake walimlazimisha kujiuzulu maana ni aibu kubwa, na hawataki kukosa kura kwenye uchaguzi ujao. Haya Senator Craig, sasa mambo yako wazi, hivyo vaa gauni, sidiria, na wigi na ufanye unavyotaka. Mambo yako hayako kwenye closet tena.
Kwa kweli lazima tuwahurumie familia yake, maana kwa hapa Marekani ni kashfa nzito. Ana mke, watoto na wajukuu.
