The GOP's Lame Presidential Candidates: Are They Crazy Enough for the Right-Wing Screamers?

Candidate #6: Somali Warlord Musa Sudi Yalahow

There’s no better candidate to rally support on the Right than Somali warlord Musa Sudi Yalahow.

First of all, just think about how well Somalia fits in with modern conservative ideals of how society should be run. There ain’t no gubmint bureaucrats tellin’ you that you can’t own a gun in Somalia! The right to bear arms in that country is so sacrosanct that they don’t even need a Constitutional amendment to make it a reality!

Similarly, there ain’t no gubmint bureaucrats in Somalia tellin’ you that you gotta buy health insurance. In fact, according to Doctors Without Borders, people in Somalia don’t have to suffer under the tyranny of having health insurance at all! Check out an excerpt from this report:

“For many years Somalis have endured violence, displacement, malnutrition, and lack of access to adequate health care. […] Over the course of the year, the gap between critical needs in Somalia, particularly in and around Mogadishu, and the level of humanitarian response grew even larger, mainly due to aid agencies’ extremely limited capacity to deliver assistance in this highly insecure and volatile environment.”

You can just smell the freedom and liberty all the way across the ocean, can’t you?

Next, consider the kind of man Mr. Yalahow is. According to his Wikipedia page, Yalahow was part of an America-backed warlord coalition to fight Islamist extremists in the country back in early 2006. In other words, he has a lot more real-world experience fighting terrorists than the Kenyan Kommie currently occupying the White House ever will. And when many of his fellow warlords agreed to stop fighting and voluntarily disarm their militias, Yalahow instead issued veiled threats to revolt if the new government didn’t live up to its promises.
