Hmm, I see President Mbeki's gonna be opening Parliament today. No doubt he'll be doing the usual PR story about how wonderful things have become in just 10 years.
Assuming of course his bodyguards can slash and cut their way through the crowds of starving, homeless and jobless people..
Look they may be starving, unemployed, riddled with AID's and be doomed to a grisly horrific hopeless future - but at least everyone has the vote now. There's some dignity in that.
Since you put it like that, I guess that must be a big consolation to them. Gee, you've almost convinced me.. Lemme go see how our glorious Leader repackages civil unrest and repression as Democracy-
Note to self - don't mention Zimbabwe's state terrorism that we're supporting, the 600 daily deaths from AID's, the 120 daily crime deaths, the 1400 farmers murdered...
Hmm, looks like nothing's changed.
