A Word About Corruption, Mugabe And South Africa…..?
People are quick to point their fingers at Afican nations, and let’s make no bones about it, NO form of corruption is ever justifiable however did you know that….
IN 1999 George Dubbya’s campaign chairwoman and secretary of state for Florida paid $4million to Database Technologies to go through the electoral rolls and remove anyone “suspected” of being a former felon. Interesting as the governor of Florida, the wife of Jeb Bush (Dubbya’s brother), was caught by immigration trying to smuggle in $19,000 of jewellery without declaring it, but of course SHE was not the felons they wanted off the lists. Ex-felons cannot vote in Florida, so 31% of all black men are barred from voting- most black floridians are democrats. Anyway, the company also removed relatives, people with the same name and so on. 90% of black floridians had no vote- thousand of people with no criminal record AT ALL!!!! Only an 80% match was required to be “struck off”. Unsuspecting black and hispanic voters were turned
About Americans I would have to agree with some of what you say I hold some of the same view myself. what really puzzles me is, you have the opinion that Britain is an American puppet state yet you continue to live amongst the very people you pupport to despise. Are you perhaps angry that you are being seduced by our decadent way of life, or is it our cushy welfare state that attracts you.
So you do like a selected few of us after all you say MJ, I also see you have an exciting talent I didn’t know anything about. You are a clairvoyant you seem to know exactly what my views on Iraq are without even asking me about them well done mate!
Yes, I have read books and watched documentaries on this subject, but what is even more astonishing is that the Americans “re-voted” Bush for a 2nd term!
I think it’s from that point in time where the American public lost massive credibility with the rest of the world.
As Bush said “Fool me once, shame on — shame on you. Fool me — you can’t get fooled again.”
BUT Emjay,
SA is the land of my birth, and it’s my culture that is being expunged and therefore I am way more concerned about the land where I was born and where I became a second/third rate citizen.
I see what you are trying to do, but if you intend to start “excusing” every crime committed in Southern Africa by comparing it with another crime in another part of the world you are going to be a very very busy person indeed.
Perhaps there should be a system of voting based some other criteria. May be felons could have one vote others could have two votes. Those who had a minimal education could have three votes those who had a trade qualification could have fours votes a bachelor degree 5 votes, masters six votes a PhD 7 votes.
You could have additional votes for special reasons, business, householder, VC holders, married people without children.
Those who live on benefits for more than a years would have no vote
Do you know that Mugabe is from Zimbabwe and not South Africa? Anyway i understand what you are trying to say..everyone’s jumping on the band wagon pointing fingers at mugabe’s policies…how about Bush’s Iraq invasion and interference with all world affairs. people should solve their own corruption first before they try and straighten other corrupt leaders!
I for one can only point fingers at what i see, not what i do not know or cannot see, what does not concern me, or what i cannot trust to read, you cannot blame or criticize anyone for that. My primary concern is for my African neighbor rather than another Continent hence the criticism would be strong. Our obligations, priorities and social responsibilities are more for Zimbabwe than USA, they are big enough to sort themselves out whereas our neighbor is obviously not.
That is why Me myself and I sweep first on our stoop then we point the finger to the other country’s You on the other hand run away from South Africa and try to defend the tucks here American regime ,U.K .,French sweep S.A. stoop and left allot of poop on the doorstep
Now we try to make noise so that thy can wake up and sweep again but they ain’t interested because we have no oil
You can find the odd one off in the West but what you cannot deny is that the coons have systematically destroyed every African Country on the Continent with their corruption and greed. Too fecking lazy and stupid to get off their fat a rses and do something useful. Its easier to hand out the begging bowl and invent stories and tell lies about how badly treated they are.
as they say whoever is without sin cast the first stone. Having said that Mugabe and his infamous regime have killed millions of his own people, by systematic starvation, lets make no mistake about that. And totally run his country into the dust.
what do you expect of corrupt savages [shrug of the shoulders]
this is a good one MJ. I await a response from Bull, but knowing him, he will avoid answering as i can see no comeback on this one. that said, i fuly agree with what is said about Bush and his cowboy regime. Bob Mugabe and Bush have been behind the death of millions. it would be hard to choose which one to give a lekker bekskoot to should i have the choice…
But is that corruption or just laziness & stupidity at Database Technologies ?
