That's a bit rich coming from Mandela, the ****ing murderer.

The latest words from Mandela really make Bush bashers sound like a bunch of loonies. Some of them are I think."When you ride alone, you ride with Bin Ladin"-Bill Maher
"All capital is dripping with blood."-Karl Marx

For those who aspire to live in a high cost, high tax, big government place, our nation and the world offers plenty of options. Vermont, Canada and Venezuela all offer you the opportunity to live in the socialist, big government paradise you long for. –Senator RubioComment

When I read Nelson Mandela's comments Thursday, I had to read it twice, to make sure it was properly quoted. Unfortunately, it was, and my respect for Mandela has dropped markedly.

I included Belafonte because the remarks he made against Powell a while back, I think, ultimately reflected his disgust with Bush Administration policies. The guy he's really upset with is President Bush IMO.Originally posted by Gatekeeper

As someone who has respected Nelson Mandela's efforts to correct his country's racial conflicts, I am profoundly disappointed to see such ignorance of the cause of conflict between the the US and Iraq on his part.
It's not about oil, it is not about disrespecting Koffe Anan because he is African, it is not about religion.
It's about a sadistic tyrant supressing a people that we *can* get at. Today Saddam, tomorrow, maybe the next available butcher-tyrant.
My view is that the UN ought to make it a point of actively engaging and removing tyrants around the world, by any means possible. That's what I think the purpose of the UN is, and that is what they *ought* to be doing as a matter of course.Civ2 Demo Game #1 City-Planner, President, Historian

The big problem I have with that idea is: who decides what a tyrant is?Originally posted by cavebear
