Michelle Obama speaking at the LGBT ( the letters stand for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexsual and trans. whatever ) delegate luncheon on August 26, 2008
She said: “… Barack has led by example. When we visited “HIS” home country of Kenya…”.
.
And in this context, it seems like the Kenyans may have slipped up too, the day after Obama was elected . I posted these before when they were said, but this is a great time to repost them with this quote above by Michelle.
Here are some excerpts from the Kenyan Parliament from Nov. 5, 2008, on the morning after Barack Obama won the US Presidential election on Tues, Nov. 4:
NATIONAL ASSEMBLY OFFICIAL REPORT
Wednesday, 5th November, 2008
The House met at 9.00 a.m.
Dr. Khalwale: On a point of order, Mr.Deputy Speaker, Sir. You have heard none other than the Leader of Government Business acknowledge that because of Obama’s win in the United States of America (USA), the House is crippled. Could we allow him to move a Motion for Adjournment so that we could also continue the celebrations of having a Kenyan ruling the USA? I humbly request!
The Assistant Minister for Water and irrigation (Mr. Kiunjuri): Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, as you can see, people are really celebrating. However, I am wondering whether the Americans have not reported to work and yet it is their
victory. I am also hoping that there will be no homecoming for Obama. If there is one, the Leader of Government Business should alert us in good time so that we can set up a committee to organize for his homecoming.
Ms. Odhiambo: … Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the President-elect, Mr. Obama, is a son of the soil of this country.
Mr. Affey: … For the first time, we have a leader of a great country in this world whose blood is Kenyan.
COMMUNICATION FROM THE CHAIR CONGRATULATORY MESSAGE TO PRESIDENT-ELECT BARRACK OBAMA
Hon. Members, as you may be aware, the people of the United States of America have just had a historic election where the son of this soil, Barrack Hussein Obama, has been elected the 44th President of the United States of America…
The Vice-President and Minister for Home Affairs (Mr. Musyoka): …
As we do, as you said from the Chair, this is a sovereign country. We know we can learn a lot. To be able to support that blood relation, I think we owe it to ourselves to make sure that we have a peaceful country as Kenyans; a country that will uphold the true principles of the rule of law, democracy and tolerance between ourselves
At the beginning of this year, Senator Barrack Obama called me at midnight and told me:
“Mr. Vice President, could you make sure you sort out this problem?” I want to assure him that the problem has since been sorted out.
The Assistant Minister for Higher Education, Science and Technology (Dr. Mwiria):… Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I would like to take this opportunity to also congratulate Barrack Obama on his victory and also say that even as we look at that victory say it is possible, it is only possible because there are structures in place in the US that make it possible for any potential candidate to win, irrespective of whether they have a lot of money which they have gotten legally or illegally, they are from a different ethnic group and how old they are.
Mr. Chanzu: … I highly congratulate Obama and salute Americans, Black, White and other races, for what they have done in showing the world that a leader can come from any community. I also want to congratulate Kenyans for the support they have shown. It showed the Americans that we were supporting our own.

Wild Thing’s comment……..
WHY ELSE would all the documents about this guy from the birth certificate to the school grades, to his muzzie faith etc be under seal..no one puts something under seal unless they have something to hide and seems he has plenty.
HERE is the definition of home country
All words.com
noun
1. the country in which a person was born and usually raised, regardless of the present country of residence and citizenship
She was speaking metaphorically. Like I do when I call Scotland my home country, despite never having set foot there.
Damn! :O
And, no offense to anyone, but the stigma with HIV, etc. isn’t homophobia… it’s fatal-diseas-o-phobia, in case liberals forget.
obama is a muslim. He is also probably a Kenyan. He stated in his books that he rejected his mother’s race(White) and embraced his father’s race(Black). Does that mean he also considered himself a Kenyan over an American?
He must be a kenyan, he knows absolutely nothing about what it is to be an American. Why not just resign Barry maybe the kenyan goverment can give you a job sweeping floors and your fishfaced wife can clean toilettes.
oops well she’ll be wisked off the canvas again for an indeterminant amount of time….good!…I wonder if she holds dual citizenship anywhere hhmmm……nonetheless she is a parasite like her husband!
When people tell you who they are…believe ’em.
Thank you everyone. I bet Barack had something to say to Michelle after he heard she did this.
