Way to be a struggle hero, ANC!

If those millions of voters knew this, this 3/10000 chance, then we would get a different result come April.

So this gaff – or lack of foreign policy towards the Lama – is bad enough. No, I lie, they don’t have a foreign policy. All the fuss in this blog … is nothing compared to our self-taught leader that is Zuma and what he will spring upon us. I ask myself the question: Who can govern this country? Who? The present ADMIN, certainly not, Zuma – Mr. 3 in 10000, no! As Ulrike Meinhoff once said “Some talk about the weather. . . we don’t’.

Yes, I agree. Hitler was responsible for the deaths of 20 million people. However Mao, and during peace-time, was responsible for the death of, wait for it … 70 million people. The Great Leap Forward contributed to 20 million souls starving to death.

An aside, it isn’t up to the ANC to govern, it is those souls who are simply loyal to the ANC, and will surely vote for same again. So whether the ANC is fit to govern or not isn’t the question at issue. The question(s) at issue is why will they return to power. There is a simple answer: those millions are not aware that you are 3 chances in 10 thousand of NOT getting AIDS when you sleep with somebody who HAS AIDS.

the ruling party is also in government and for ten years they let the Dictator T.M do as he pleases my question to you Mel are we in for another silent treatment by the very people we deploy to parly because the dont want to upset their new master J.Z as President ?

i find no reason not to allow the Dalai Lama it is excuse lame and set not to upset China finish and klaar!!

1. What do you mean by ordinary masses?

2. Have you considered the reasons why “ordinary masses” continue to give mandate to the ANC to provide leadership everytime the opportunity arises?

3. Assuming your argument that Thabo Mbeki’s administration is being perpetuated is true, does that not mean it is in fact not Thabo Mbeki’s administration which is being perpetuated but that of the ruling party which deployed him to the Presidency and “recalled” him?

This may hold water especially when you recall the “iron curtain” that ANC leaders like to conceal themselves behind, when faced with questions petaining to their leadership or government or ANC policies. The “iron curtain” is that there is collective leadership in the ANC so the person in question cannot give an answer. This was especially done by Zuma during his interview with Vuyo (the SABC 2 Morning Live presenter with Leanne Manas) in the height of the tension between the party leaders and the now COPE leaders (Shilowa and Lekota)

what i find extremely funny is that all the wrong things in this past 10 years is placed at Thabo Mbeki`s door
what were the others cabinet members doing ? too afraid to say anything? lest they loose their perks?
could the same be said about the incoming ones?
are these the right type of people we want in Parly?
who will vote the scorpions out just because the party said so?the anc is clearly not ready to govern !!

I see no reason for you to open closed discussions. It has always been the position of those who oppossed TM that he is a dictater and collective discussion meant nothing to him.

It will be wrong of you to suggest that the Anc is not ready to govern,yet it has been in goverment for a long period it has. Ordinary masses on the ground keep on giving it a mandate to provide leadership everytime the opportunity( Elections ) arise.

Why you relfect on JZ adminstration when such has not yet happened raises more questions than answers. The fact of the matter remains that TM,s adminstration is being perpetuated at the moment. There has been no dramatic changes in policies and it has to be accepted that reasons advanced for the issue around Dalai lama to access this peacefull country are genuine
