Tom Hayden throws Obama under the bus
Former Senator and radical ’60s activist Tom Hayden had strong words for Barack Obama at a talk on social movements, May 29. He decried the views in Obama’s speech to the Cuban American National Foundation, calling them the views of a “classic Yankee imperialist. Obama’s said he supports the war in Colombia, supports the drug war, supports the war on the streets … He’s sounding very hawkish.”
