Proof that socialism can be seductive when democracy and capitalism become incompetent due to an erosion or lack of moral absolutes (be sure to read the last line): Reported by CNN today: http://edition.cnn.com/2007/WORLD/africa/12/30/kenya.elex/?imw=Y&iref=mpstoryemail NAIROBI, Kenya (CNN) -- "Kenya's government has suspended all live television broadcasts as violence engulfed Nairobi following the re-election of incumbent president Mwai Kibaki. A senior official from the Kenyan Television Network said it had been ordered to stop live broadcasts as rioters went on the rampage. Protesters waving machetes were shouting "Kibaki must go!" as buses and shops burned in Mathare, AP reported. Kibaki's slim margin of victory is a marked difference from his win five years ago, in a landslide election. He had run on promises to fight corruption. He has seen his authority erode amid a number of high-profile corruption scandals in his government. He faced a serious challenge from Odinga, a flamboyant politician who hails from the minority Luo tribe and has won support from rural and urban voters after promising to share the wealth among all the people." Orrin, I cannot find a more timely real-life example of why the media war is so important.
