Chelsea Worth 40 Goats and 20 Cows: Kenyan

Chelsea_GoatsA Kenyan man has offered to pay US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton a dowry of 40 goats and 20 cows in exchange for her daughter Chelsea’s hand in marriage.

40-year-old Godwin Kipkemoi Chepkurgor, who works as a councillor in Nakuru in Kenya’s Rift Valley, first made the offer in a letter to Secretary Clinton back in 2000. He renewed his proposal at a Nairobi town hall meeting last Thursday, which was held as part of Secretary Clinton’s 7-nation tour of the Dark Continent.

According to experts on Kenyan customs, 40 goats and 20 cows is a very generous dowry to offer. Chepkurgor is already married but he says his wife approves of the addition to the family.

“My daughter is her own person. I will convey this very kind offer,” Chepkurgor quoted Secretary Clinton as saying in response.

“She promised that she will take the proposal to the daughter and I am now waiting,” he said.

Oh, we are, too.

    Take the offer!

    Come to think about it, I’d accept half that much for the Secretary of State

  2. Wanda says

    LOLLOLLOLLOL!!! Even Less for Pelosi and Obama–wait! I’d GIVE Obama and Pelosi away.

  3. Philoctetes says

    Which are the goats and which one is Chelsea?

  4. harharhar says

    What kind of cows were they – milking, beef, or the kind that Billy likes to fool around with on the side?

  5. CC says

    Why hasn’t the offer changed at all? She’s older, fewer child bearing years left… plus, she’s outraged at the thought of anybody ironing a shirt.

    Somebody needs to teach this guy negotiation skills.

  6. Jane Scroggins says

    Does this poor guy know who his in-laws would be? Chelsea might not be a bad deal but people who associate with that bunch have a terrible lot of accidents!

  7. klt says

    This guy must be blind.

  8. ron says

    The guy is already married because he’s a muslim and his current wife has no say in the matter if he wants another wife! In islam, you’re allowed up to four wives (chattel). And, this 7th century barbarian will “purchase” wives with animals (other chattel). That’s some phukking culture…isn’t it?!

    BTW, will Chelsea’s biological father, Webb Hubbell, approve of this purchase?

  9. Philoctetes says

    Webb Hubbell is Chelsea’s biological father? What a terrible thing to say. Everybody knows that Eric Holder is Chelsea’s biological father!!

  10. fatmatya says

    why aer you guys so negative toward chelsea and her family?

  11. The Great Frank says

    Chelsea wouldn’t be a dog if she weren’t so ugly! She is really Webster Hubble’s daughter, look at pictures of Hubble and she’s a dead ringer! And why didn’t they get her braces? You can snap a bottle cap on those choppers!

  12. Philoctetes says

    Frank: Tell me you would kick her out of bed!!

  13. expertman_2000 says

    If I were him I would not go more than 20 goats and 5 cows, plus maybe throw in a years subscription to the NY Times.

  14. Thomas says

    Classic.

  15. Ulf says

    One goat for her. Not more.

  16. Johann says

    No goats. Goats are useful. You can milk a goat…
