Sarah Palin called on Kenyan witch hunting Bishop Thomas Muthee to help jump start her campaigns for governor and later for the White House. Muthee it may be remembered made headlines when he took his crusade to purge witches from Kenya to Palin’s one time Wasilla Assembly of God church.

In what is surely a brilliant bit of counter-insurgency marketing, OR Books will be releasing the political antidote to Sarah Palin’s memoir Going Rogue with Going Rouge–Sarah Palin, An American Nightmare , on November 16, the day before Palin’s tome explodes on the national book market.

The eyes of the world are focused on America in these last days before the 2008 presidential election on November 4th.  So how is this monumental event being covered in news reports to other countries?  NTV Kenya, the leading TV broadcast station in Kenya, Africa reports on early voting in Florida, with the journalist carefully explaining the process to his viewers back home.

A Kenyan pastor who prayed to protect VicePresidential candidate Sarah Palin from witches is being criticized at home after it emerged that his chief claim to power that he forced an evil spellcasting woman from town was false.
