#1 Good day for Obama. Bad day for sheep and goats.

#2 They sacrifice sheep in honor of our 44th President. We have sheeple electing our 44th President.

Poetic justice?

#3 Haven't these people ever heard of California Prop. No. 2? And how come PETA isn't saying anything about this?

#4 Obama's election and his Muslim ancestry have excited the villagers

There's little "excitement" in my village I can assure you of that. Ironically, they celebrate for the same reason I voted against him.

#5 Like lambs to the slaughter. Nice metaphor for all those folks that voted for Obama hoping he didn't really mean all those things he said.

#6 Did they have their way with them, before slaughtering them? Sounds kinda un-islamic if they didn't.

Anyway, add that to the kenyan goat-killing to mark the Zero's victory, and you get a pretty nice, pleasing picture of primitives being all excited and happy for all the "good" reasons, which certainly tells a lot.

#8 Sorry, 1/2 mt.
Plea's in support of 'the primitives' must represent a valued advancable society treated unjustly. (Prime Directive and all that...)

Letting 'the primitives' have their fun without the balance of conscience and social obligation or personal growth removes them from the power of my fiscal pity I'm afraid.

I expect this was a chance to seize a poorman's herd and slaughter it for some 'good eaten '!
