No difference between a wolf and a fox!
SIR — Malcolm X had no illusions in the so-called differences between the Democrats and Republicans. He said: “One is a wolf, the other is a fox. No matter what, they’ll both eat you.â€

In the 1964 presidential elections, when the US presidential candidates were Lyndon B. Johnson (the “peace†candidate) vs. Barry Goldwater (the “war†candidate), Malcolm X exposed the deceit of this fake distinction. “The shrewd capitalists, the shrewd imperialists,†he said, “knew that the only way people would run towards the fox (Johnson) would be if you showed them the wolf (Goldwater).
So they created a ghastly alternative . . . And at the moment he (Johnson) had troops invading the Congo and South Vietnam.†This analogy seems to fit well in the current political situation in Kenya.
Everybody seems to be fighting corruption but give them power and you will see their true colours. Show the people the true colours of ODM-K and you will see them running towards NARC-K.
Corruption has so much dominated the political scene until many Kenyans feel so betrayed by their leaders who have decided to feed on the sweat of the poor since independence todate. When are we going to put this to an end?
