In his 28th Jan 2008, column for the New Statesman, John Pilger with withering outrage attacks the "ritual danse macabre" that is the US presidential election : Barack Obama is a glossy Uncle Tom who would bomb Pakistan. Hillary Clinton, another bomber, is anti-feminist. John McCain’s one distinction is that he has personally bombed a country. They all believe the US is not subject to the rules of human behaviour ... ... read full story / add a comment
