This is really funny stuff. Just discovered your blog and plan to spend some time on it. By a remarkable coincidence, I too have written a series of speeches for our politicians (about 10 so far), though not about Somalis. The link to the 3rd part is http://www.rameshsrivats.net/2009/01/100-word-election-speeches-part-3.html Do check it out. ---<em> me: Great minds think alike? OK fine, you are the great and I'm the not-so-great, but yet atleast we thought alike!</em> Ha Ha. This is really funny stuff. Just discovered your blog and plan to spend some time on it.

Brilliant political satire!! I likey!! Eventually, this is what will happen if each of the above succeed in their schemes - Advaniji will float a new outfit Rashtriya 'Soma'sevak Sangh and vouch for a Ram Mandir being built in downtown Mogadishu. Somalia is where Rama's forgotten great great grandsons ruled, didn't u know? Sonia Signora, will marry the president of Somalia and vie for its presidency in later years and then eventually turn down the offer. She will be the de facto president though. After all, Somalia was an erstwhile colony of her motherland. She should have a hand in its polity right? Laloo Bhaiya, apart from the fodder scams...err...businesses, will start 'Somali-nawaaz Express', offering free tickets to all poor Somalis (pretty much everyone!) and will have 'adrakwala masala chai' served in earthen cups by khadi clad Bhaiyajis imported from Bihar. Karunanidhi will rename the country in Tamil and change the official language from Somali and Arabic to Tamil. Sitaram Yechury will try and turn Somalia into a red-nation with the help of the Communist Manifesto. He will be another Fidel Castro (Sitarel Yechurio). Our Momota di, will do what she does best - protest every factory establishment in 'Mamtalia'. ---<em> me: next time onwards, I shall ping you when I need post extensions!</em> ROFL!!

I know you don't like this "alienated" talk :)- but it would feel amazing to have all our hopes on one person, to think we finally have Change. Just that thought...to be maniacs about one person. Just like we DID have someone like that 7 decades back, when we trusted him and knew he could save us. He made mistakes as well but did more good than bad. Since then we did'nt have another with that vision and love for our country.
