Put aside the burning of libraries and other lawlessness activities, the communities are reviewing performance of municipal officials. Can’t wait for local govt elections. Put a drunkard or lazy official the voters will respond.

Where is Kortbroek? De Klerk is a retired member of the ANC/NP.

Perhaps just like PW Botha and others we will say nice things about him at his funeral.

“Just this morning, I saw a child laughing in delight.”

Was it Juju?

Maggs, I am afraid you are, as we say, “over-egging the pudding.”

Just this morning, I saw a child laughing in delight.

There is a large, black chasm between the window-dressing of what is written on a piece of paper, and what constitutes reality. These countrys’ Constitutions are the products of spin doctors’ dreams-and serve the purpose of political tourist sightseeing.
We all know what happened pre-, during and after the elections in Iran last year; we all know the abysmal human rights records, including lack of freedom of thought and speech, freedom of the press, freedom of movement and communication of these countries; we all know the draconian punishment and other consequenes of opposing the system. Thank goodness we are not like them.

“And the future looks even better, what with all the accountability mechanism JZ announced last week!”

Face reality Dworky.

It’s really, really bad out there – driving in the busy streets of Joburg, in shopping malls, in the workplaces, anywhere where people gather there’s signs of utter dismay, doom and gloom.

Joy and happiness has disappeared from families. Students in schools and universities have stopped studying. Even children have stop playing and laughing.

Hospitals have stopped treating patients. Businesses have all but stopped operating. Forget luxuries, there’s not even a loaf of bread to be found these days. Banks are closed (well not really closed they’re open but they have no money so all the banks vaults are used for the homeless). There’s no fuel. Electricity is about to be cut. We have had the last of potable water. There’s no planes coming in or going out of ORT. Harbours are shut.

Forget the hope for the future – it’s all doom and gloom out there.

All that because our President had a child out of wedlock!

There’s just no peace and friendship.

Dear, oh dear, oh dear! what are we to do????”?

p.s. It’s so bad that Malema has become a carpenter.

It’s so bad that taxi drivers are following the rules of the road.

It’s so bad that Zuma wants to be adopted by Madonna.

And the future looks even better, what with all the accountability mechanism JZ announced last week!
