My favorite retired AF blogger, Baldilocks, who has been covering the situation in Kenya since it began, takes the political opportunists to task with this post, saying:
I have noticed that few people on the Right are talking about the situation in Kenya and those few who are talking about it are shaping the conflict into a Religious War Narrative with the primary objective being to discredit Senator Obama as a US presidential candidate.
And
Would you even give a f**k about hundreds of dead Kenyans if you couldn't find a way to spin it into a war between Islam and Christianity?
Unfortuantely, Ms. 'locks, the answer is "Probably not". At least, not until more people start looking at it. Remember how long it took us to start talking about Darfur.
