Last evening i was lost for words, when the substantive Speaker of the National Assembly painfully repeated the same old line that the two Principals had signed a letter excusing the MPigS from tax.
I frankly didnt know whether to be annoyed or sympathetic with the oaf.

A learned idiot who thinks a President's letter or stuff like that is above the constitution......We are seeing the last of Sol-moron. Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm.

This Marende character is an IDIOT. Who cares about their agreement? And who was he telling? Underpaid, overtaxed Kenyans struggling to cope with the rising cost of living. Did he expect them to give a s#!* And Marende and all the MPigs who fell for this are as stupid as the come? Did they expect their agreement to supersede the constitution. Did they even read the EXACT wording? Article 210(3) of the new Constitution states "No law may exclude or authorize the exclusion of a State officer from payment of tax". Do you have to be a genius to understand this article? Are these the guys making our laws. They are just but a bunch of imbeciles!!! ABK!!! Never count on making a good sale. Have the purchase price be so attractive that even a mediocre sale gives good returns.

Why don't the MP's go to court and argue that case: that they were given a letter of commitment by Kibaki and Raila not to be taxed? The court will hold that Kibaki and Raila are not members of KRA and are therefore not authorised to enter contracts on KRA's behalf! Some one mentioned here that the MPIGs are better off if they negotiate payment terms while still in parliament.... when they get out [and over 70% of them usually don't return] they will be in so much trouble! But the idiots can't see the logic. BTW: Have you noticed that the ones who are paying are those with a high chance of returning [taxes or no taxes]? Nothing is real unless it can be named; nothing has value unless it can be sold; money is worthless unless you spend it.

Marende has been so adept at interpreting the constitution on all manner of issues. Now he wants to feign ignorance over the taxation issue because it hits him personally. Sorry mate, the law is an ass and you were thoroughly conned! Accept this, Pay your taxes, and move on. Great men are not always wise, neither do the aged understand judgement...

The net result is that they have to pay PAYE on their entire remuneration and allowances. Truth be told, in matters of law, negotiations are permissible. In the Mps case though, the agreement cited can not be legally enforced. Marende should be understood for feeling cheated. Going forward how is he to trust the executive on anything they say! A lot of matters in Govt, and indeed in Parliament are settled upon negotiations. At some point, the executive will need to negotiate with parliament via the Speaker!! Your guess as good as mine.

Marende has been touted in the past as one person to be considered as a presidency given the way he has handled parliament business. His obsession with this tax matter is not helping him in that respect. Sad! http://www.nation.co.ke/...4/-/10fl3co/-/index.htmlJust as absolute power corrupts leaders, so does absolute fanaticism blind the people from logic

the kenyan solomon has been cornered, its a shame that:- 1) i almost thought he was different from the rest 2) that the mpigs thought that he could shield them from a constitutional obligation. ABK Don't wait for the Last Judgment. It happens every day. ~Albert Camus, The Fall, 1956

President of what? where? how? Why do people lie to themselves so much? How many Kenyans knew Marende before the 2007 elections? He became the Speaker because Raila said so. Without Raila he wouldn't even have thought about it! Fair enough, Kenyans know him now. But do they like what they see? He of the sufficiently philanthropic bullshit? He embodies parliament's push for higher unjustified salaries and resistance to pay taxes. He can't even make Governor or senator! He might stand a chance as an MPig but even that is 50 - 50. And the fellow has been quoted saying that after being the Speaker of the national assembly, there is only one position he can vie for. What a delude son of a... Never count on making a good sale.

67% (i included)of kenyans said MPs should pay tax. KM should know that he is fighting a losing battle. Life is short. Live passionately.
