Having divergent opinions is not bad,our biggest problem seems to be our inability to agree on a common solution.
Even here in SK people seems to be unwilling to agree on a way out of our current situation. Its good to see most here preaching reconciliation etc,but that will not help. Tomorrow,this media or politician will say this and we will again work ourselves into a frenzy over certain positions,40 posts later we will again try to calm ourselves down with comments like the politicians are eating together while we fight.
The question is can we agree on a common solution for kenya,or is the kenya of the Kikuyu's different from that of the kalenjins.
Example as mtaalam puts it,ther cannot be peace without justice,my question is why can't we agree that the current justice system is flawed and that the CJ is the stumbling block and needs to go to allow for reforms.
Our salvation lies in institutional reforms and a new constitution,we get all this done and we will have a clean starting point. I am also putting my money on the Mpigs to atleast see this reforms through ama risk losing their seats in 2012. ODM has always supported reforms and a new constitution and based on the chatter coming out of the PNU camp,the 2 sides are now singing the same new constitution song and Mutula has given his timetable,I am taking all of this at face value and believing that we will have a new constitution and reforms soon.
Infact from now until the new constitution is put in place,I will treat political happenings in the country as free comedy.
I guess if you can't win with facts,you can always pen bile-laced,xenophobic rants to distract everyone.
