You make a good point re. the KSA, haven't been able to think of a single counter to it yet. I suspect that the reason that no one cares about such massive human rights abuses is down to pragmatics: they're just so incredibly widespread and it would be so hard to get the KSA to do anything about it so no one bothers. nought.point.zerohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01262401202062370297noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6725045245352843933.post-4593658696401532102008-06-19T16:44:00.000+01:002008-06-19T16:44:00.000+01:00The article points out, and I agree, as do you, th...The article points out, and I agree, as do you, that Hillary lost because of bad tactics etc.<BR/><BR/>Where I comment on her, it was in the context of the way people responded to her, I wasn't trying to suggest that she lost because of her sex.<BR/><BR/>I think the secret Muslim campaign is a difficult one as it is an issue where race and religion mix.

Although I haven't given it a massive amount of thought nor read the article in depth, my initial thoughts are:<BR/><BR/>a) the democratic nomination was about soooooo much more than just sex - Hilary has made so many mistakes that make her worthy of the hate she recieved (arguably) so I don't neccasserily buy the "the media hate her: they're sexist!"nought.point.zerohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01262401202062370297noreply@blogger.com
