Well put @John Gitau
well I dont care much for the design. If i was to be picky I'd say the fact that the site has links supposed to point to speeches that 'dead end' is just wrong.
What I am having an issue with is blanket procramations of site is bad.
If you look back the last time I saw such a rant (http://www.wanjiku.co.ke/2012/05/companies-registry-website-cost-62-million-cant-even-search/) someone complained about the companies registry and gave a very concise list of their issue with that portal.
Im asking you to not compare our statehouse with white house site and instead point out issues with the site that we can actually go out and fix especially since Im sure this site was funded with my tax shillings.

Lets first establish where you stand in regards to web design stuff, what do you think of http://www.whitehouse.gov/ in terms of:To make it even easier, if YOU had to contribute 100k from YOUR pocket for a website, would you rather get whitehouse.gov or statehousekenya.go.ke?
- Content "richness"
- Aesthetics

How about maybe offer a suggestion on what you'd like to see, if you did a free site for the state house for instance what makes you believe we would like it more than the one there?
Me devos advocate (though I seriously see lots of bashing here so just before you start on me let me try defend someone:-))

Vic, you probably don't want to know who did this site. You could
suddenly find it impossible to inhibit the urge to whack the
"web-designer" with a crowbar.
