This just in from Slate: “The LAT notes that many are losing faith in the country's politicians who are seen as more concerned with their own power instead of working together to end the violence.”
I guess it took the seasoned journalists of the Los Angeles press corps to make that brilliant deduction. Hey, Marge, did ya hear the news? Them politicians are concerned about their own power. Now don’t that beat all.
The real surprise is that the esteemed members of the Fifth Estate were not talking about the dedicated members of Congress engaged in bipartisan efforts to 'support our troops', 'quell sectarian violence', 'regain control of ethnic enclaves', 'reinstate the rule of law', 'round up the terrorists', and any other euphemism for war you can think of.
No, this was about Kenya. When they kill people, it's violence and chaos. When we kill people, it's called restoring order.
