9/3/2010 7:46:53 PM Tsietsi THE BLACK AND WHITE TRUTH WILL ALWAYS BE MISTREATED BY PEOPLE WHO CANNOT HANDLE THE TRUTH.

There is one real man in Africa, his name is Robert Mugabe. Everyone else is just a two tastecles. The future generations of Zimbambweans will be fond of him.They will own the majority shares of every company operating in Zimbabwe plus the mining and the land. It was badly done but we are in the world whre the ends justify the means no matter whether you like it or not.The man I am talking about is Mugabe , although he learnt too late as well, but he is not outsmarted by the Dajjal ( people must watch the Arrivals of the Dajjal movie on You Tube) by being invited by the queen and set up to answer stupid questions by the british media about his sex life and forced to denounce Nationalization and sell out his voting base while being chauffered by the Queen.

What was he doing there. People must learn to tell the media they don't talk about what is not in their agenda. People must stop this thing of trying to be accepted by people who consider them as just good for "security" , meaning that they should focus on fighting crime and stop tampering with the economy. That is how white people here, and now this has been exported abroad, want Zuma or see Zuma as being feet for. Security ! Even Gordon Brown mentioned crime . Zuma as a security man, must enforce security on Zimbabwe for Britain (not Britain as a whole but the Crown) to do what it has always been doing in Africa.
Now that is the truth ladies and gentlemen.

And you know what the other truth is? Is that all this was arranged with the help of the Openheimers , who was seated next to the finance minister in parliament while Zuma was abroad.

Good lucky Malema , I don't eny you yours is lonely struggle. You have been betrayed.You are just a young chap who has been misled by the thing called "Comrade". You cannot justify wastage ( R250k watch, expensive clothing) on the wrongs of others ( ill gained riches of the whites at the expense of the Africans) the same wrongs the struggle was trying to correct. It destroys the morality of the struggle. And when we talk of moralilty here. We talk not of the sexual morality, which is a trivial matter as we are all adults, but we talk of the morality or moral to struggle for the betterment of the African masses.

When the soul is corrupted with easy money,underseved tenders, bribery by big companies and by oppresors and other races etc, that morality is destroyed.

Had the money ( used for the bling bling R250k watch) used for buying land, or mining or other things of seriuos value, I would consider Malema as a smart man. If Malema was not fighting Cosatu and SACP for Tokyo (for president) and the other Comrade Capitalists to take strategic positions in the ANC , Goverment for their self interests but was fighting for the betterment of the African masses and the transformation of this country, he would have my support.

WHERE SHALL A MAN WHO WILL GIVE DIRECTION TO THIS CONFUSSION COME FROM?

9/3/2010 7:23:45 PM Umlilo Viva Vavi KZN & Moralo Lerumo:
Comrades, Greetings!

Do we have a Morales in Vavi? Why can't we actively promote democratic socialism as in Bolivia?
Everyone is happy....even the former capitalists & racists!

Read on this article from the Guardian-

Bolivia, A Beacon of Hope
The inspiring example of Evo Morales's Bolivian government
By Matt Kennard

March 08, 2010 "The Guardian" - - There's a game I've been playing recently. Any time I read the news and get depressed about the parlous state of our world, I type "Bolivia" into Google news and wait for the results. It's really all you need to brighten up your day.

In the last month things such as this have popped up: Bolivian women spearhead Morales revolution, which describes the decision by Bolivia's president, Evo Morales, to stock half his new cabinet with women, nearly half of them indigenous. More recently there was this: Bolivian president donates half pay to victims, which detailed Morales and his vice president Alvaro García's decision to donate half their March salaries to help the victims of the Haiti and Chile earthquakes.

What is happening in Bolivia now - and has been since MAS, or Movimiento al Socalismo, came to power in 2005 - is truly inspiring. There has been a lot of talk about how the left is dead and Francis Fukayama's "End of History" means we all have to accept that a global economic system that creates obscene inequalities and mass starvation is the highest stage of social and economic organisation our species can attain.

That might be true for an academic at Johns Hopkins, but for everyone else looking to the future and something to fight for, I ask them to kindly divert their gaze to Bolivia. It is the closest thing we have to real democratic socialism: a government, but more importantly a grassroots movement, committed to economic and gender equality, anti-racism, free speech and every other ideal the left should hold dear.

In December last year MAS won their second five-year term with 67% of the public vote, more than double the percentage won by their nearest opponent, Manfred Reyes Villa. The re-election of an incumbent was particularly exceptional in Bolivia. A country often dismissed by regional experts as "ungovernable" due to its bloody history of military coups and mass public protests, it has seen only a handful of presidents complete their terms in office. The FT now calls Morales "one of Latin America's most popular leaders".

Morales's landslide victory was a clear sign of public support for the present administration and the extensive social reforms they have implemented. On coming to power in 2005, Morales pledged to see through a "democratic revolution" in an attempt to alleviate poverty in Bolivia, the poorest country in South America. The democratic revolution had its genesis in 2000 in what were called the "water wars", centred in the city of Cochabamba. The water industry had just been privatised with the help of the neoliberal government and the IMF and was run now by the US corporation Bechtel.

Prices soared and police were even instructed to arrest people collecting rainwater to bypass the new prices. The indigenous community was up in arms and Bechtel was forced out by the local communities. The indigenous movement, which is based around small micro-democratic communities, went on to blockade La Paz. The government shot dead a score of protesters in 2005, before the presidential incumbent was forced out and fled to Miami.

When Morales was elected he became the country's first indigenous president and his party embarked on a programme of "decolonising the state". For Latin America, the election of an indigenous leader had the same poignancy as Barack Obama's election in the US.

Throughout his mandate Morales has determinedly pursued a programme of social change, including the part-nationalisation of the country's energy resources and a surge in social spending that has focused on conditional cash transfers (whereby payments have been made to poor families on the condition that they send their children to school.) These measures have seen Bolivia record a fiscal surplus for the first time in 30 years the country has been predicted a higher growth rate this year than anywhere else in the Americas and poverty levels have dropped continually since MAS came to power. Even the head of the IMF's western hemisphere countries unit has praised the Morales government for what he referred to as its "very responsible" macroeconomic policies.

The backbone of Morales's reform programme was the creation of a new Bolivian constitution, which was ratified by a public referendum in 2009. Morales has signalled that he will make the implementation of the new constitution his main legislative priority at the start of his second term. In a country that is often compared to apartheid South Africa, as the stark divisions of poverty and inequality are marked along racial lines, this constitution represents Bolivia's Freedom Charter.

The texture of the modern Bolivian revolution is different to that of Hugo Chávez's Venezuela. It is a much more bottom-up revolution, and Morales is kept on a tight leash by the democratic movement that was behind his rise to power in a way Chávez isn't. As you look to our election battle between a Labour government that has been in power for 13 years and allowed inequality to worsen and a Conservative cabinet full of reactionary Old Etonians, it's easy to despair. But when you do, look to Bolivia. The future lies in that small landlocked Latin American country of 9 million people.

9/3/2010 6:57:16 PM James ANC has let us all down!

I think its right to say that the ANC has let us all down. Corruption and greed has taken over the ANC. The ANC of the past is gone. The morals and values of the ANC has disappeared. Our country is on a downward spiral. Our country is the laughing stock of the world. And we only have ourselves to blame. We cannot blame everyone who disagrees with the current ANC as being racist or anti-revolutionary, or apartheid spy's or dark forces or conspiracies or Mbeki people. This type of talk will not hold anymore. We are tired of hearing the same BS all the time. Zuma became president on conspiracy theories.

The ANC is losing power slowly. What frightens me is the day they realise it and decide to implement disastrous policies just to keep the voters with them, as it was done in Zimbabwe. During the next ANC elections, if the SACP does not get its leaders in important positions then I see a split taking place.

This will only be for the good of our country. We need a good strong opposition in our country. And if the ANC does not change its ways, I think the SACP could in time become the next ruling party. The only revolution we should be talking about is the revolution to end corruption.

Jacob Zuma has got to be the weakest leader the ANC has ever had. Besides for his many scandals, he is also affraid to make an enemy of anyone. So he supports everyone. Why is he stopping the audits? What does he have to hide?

As for Malema, the day we make him president, SA will become another Uganda, Congo and Zimbabwe. Malema is the biggest racist in this country. Some people might think that its good to support a racist like Malema, but he is not just a racist but also a dumb barbarian. Its people like Malema and Zuma that make all we black men look like backward savages to the rest of the world. Malema will do more harm to this country than good.

Surely the ANC can find better leaders than these people. The ANC is divided, the country is divided. Lets find a leader to unite us all. A united South Africa is a much stronger country. We can become the next global superpowers like China and India is thought to be. We just need the right leadership.

9/3/2010 3:43:57 PM Rankakatha Amen to that Winnie!

However, let us not take it hard as it is. I have been keeping contact with this site but not commenting. What Winnie actually said is echoed by most people including young ones in corners. Why? Because we do not want to upset The Masters of the Universe. We (Blacks) gave in too much during the negotiations. The Whites negotiators made sure that the Constitution is the "holiest" paper in the land and should never be changed. Why? Constitutions are negotiated and renegotiated, but strangely ours should never be touched. It guarantees land ownership. Whose land? A whiteman's land. How was that land acquired? In a criminal manner. It guarantee Afrikaans as a language.Hell no! This is not Afrikaans. It is only spoken here and Namibia (where they tried to still hold on to power) by Simon van der stel and Jan van Riebeek descedents. All of a sudden their foreign language must enjoy a higher status than indeginous languages. They all come from Europe. All of a sudden we have Africans, albeit White. When in Amrica, Africans are called African Americans.

They guarantee freedom of expression, which when exercised in respect of them, it is hate speech, when it is by them it is Freedom of Expression and Speech.

Corruption: Ok, I understand the hullablloo about Juju. Why is there so much silence about David King? The multi-millionaire who claims not to own anything and being supported by his mother who earns a meagre 800 pounds per month in Britain. The same man who owns porsches, aeroplane, etc? They talk about Juju's connections. Well, let us look at the private sector where Whites are in control. It is a known secret that you will get best deals if you are connected. We know that. They play golf together, go to rugby matches and cricket matches together, then advertises a tender whereas they have already identified who will win it. If you don't know this then you are not in business. (However, let us fight corruption, but let he who has never sinned, especially a business person, throw the first stone)

The fact is that the apartheid govt saw that the writing was on the wall. They then negotiated. In that negotiation process, they made sure that they protect themselves, (Sorry Mandela, you should not take the blame alone, there were other negotiators from the ANC. Can I ask this: who was Mandela's advisor during the negotiations? Was there no White advisors say from abroad or locally? Just asking) Something also that I have noticed about Whites who screams our country is going the Zimbabwean way is that most whites also comes from Zimbabwe, we talking about judges, businessmen etc. No problem with that, however, it shows that they came here after Ian Smit was defeated and they hoped to continue their supriority inferiority complex here, just as much as most of them ran to Australia after Mandela was released.

9/3/2010 3:26:07 PM Pat Stevens THANKS CHAPS

Thanks for the kind words Roy Morgan, it has been a privilege to communicate with people like yourself, and it gives me great faith in the future of South Africa. Before I go I wish to confess one thing, I have always been pretty tolerant of those with their noses in the feeding trough, this is because I wished to get my nose in the trough myself. OK, in my case it was to farther my writing, which I thought could benefit the ANC. Anyway, I failed in this, I did not become the Minister of Communication or even the Minister of Finance, which South Africa can thank its lucky stars for.

One last thought for my old sparring partner Viva Vavi, the anti-JZ crowd are all crowing right now, and predicting confidently that President Zuma will soon step down. But what happens if he doesn’t, what shape will South Africa be in after a bitter four year war between the President and the press, what impact will this have on foreign investment and race relations in our country. By the way Viva Vavi, I raised the declaration of interest matter before you, look at the top of the page where the big shots post. The president also raised it before the press, apparently given the size of his family it has taken some time to sort out, but I’m sure it will soon be handed to the ravenous press.

Then there will be another media feeding frenzy, the show must go on, where it will end nobody knows?

Did you notice that one of the victims of Barbie hanged herself in Botswana, I had no quibble with her seven year sentence, events in Russia did seem to indicate that her depraved boyfriend had a magnetic effect on women. But what type of justice system hands down seven years to Barbie, and fifteen years to Schabir, for a crime that would have received a heavy fine in Europe.

Expect more of this type of thing, as the press increases its stranglehold on SA.

9/3/2010 1:51:27 PM Moralo Lerumo I think Winnie is making a serious and valid point. It's difficult to swallow but is a reality

We just need to work on managing the socioeconomic matter she is raising and move on. I think if Mandela statue was in Soweto, Orange farm etc. it would have attracted more tourism and enncouraged Job creations like it was the case with the infuriating and annoying Jan van Riebereck satue and Dromedaries at Santa Rama.

We really need to debate about it in a courteous and respectful manner. It needs to treated as an internal matter than external one as it might cast a dark cloud on the legacy of uTata

Arch Bishop Tutu, history will judge him.

9/3/2010 7:57:36 AM Pat Stevens Muwanga

Not cut off yet so I will sneak in a last post, the ANC do have accountants and lawyers to advise them, in fact President Zuma’s lawyers are busy right now with his belated 60 days declaration of business interests. Unlike Julius Malema he is an elected official so he must declare his business interests. What the ANC lack is an understanding of the white psyche that drives the South African media, if they try to impose some form of control on the media, there will be an international howl about curtailing press freedom. You need to use far more subtle methods, I actually sent a proposal to AK which he promised to present on site, for a government sponsored group called CAP (Countering Anti-Government Propaganda). Yet this will never come about, the ANC are a closed shop, unless you like communism you will never get in. I believe that over the years the Friends of JZ site has had influence, but that is what it will always be, a site that the ANC can peruse to pick up interesting ideas for free.

I of course had bigger ideas, a great novel that would tell the JZ story more truthfully, but there is no way you would get such a novel in the local bookshops. The only way was to get the ANC interested enough to buy a thousand copies and spread them through their branches, but this of course never came about, the ANC are perfectly happy with the job their public relations people are doing. By the time this merry band are finished, Jacob Zuma will enjoy the same international acclaim as Robert Mugabe, it’s like taking candy from a baby. It’s no good saying that the Sunday Times were wrong, for castigating JZ for fighting back on his state visit to Britain, President Zuma broke protocol by attacking his hosts and embarrassed himself even farther. That’s the problem you see, the ANC public relations team fail to acquaint themselves with these outlandish white concepts, they try to counter white criticism by using a purely black psyche.

Anyway it’s no longer my problem, I am training myself to forget that a country called South Africa even exists, I need my full consciousness to concentrate on my new book. I am a talented writer and I believe I can still offer something to the world, this new book has nothing to do with politics and is purely philosophical, and I’m hoping that the quietness and order of England will inspire me to produce. I wrote my heart out in South Africa and I failed, Hero of the Struggle appears to be a dead duck, I could not raise orders for the book in South Africa so the book languishes in America. I will break up both of my South African novels, and strip them for portions I can use, I have been receiving small cheques from Amazon Shorts. The world of words belongs to the South African press, they are going to throw everything they’ve got at Jacob Zuma and the ANC have nothing to counter them, I’m thankful I won’t be around to see the massacre.

Totsiens Muwanga

You and I had quite a scrap

But we ended up as friends

9/3/2010 5:41:11 AM AK How the Councilor took his luck just a little too far

As we informed you last time that a meeting at Malatji took place and very well or that matter. We then agreed with the Clr. That we should have joint meetings in which he would introduce us the community. We have been trying to get him to give us the lest of his public meeting days, which request has drawn a blank. We have these MEC Health posts to do ad it just not good enough to tell the MEC we could not meet just because the Clr was not available.

On Thursday last week, the NGO informed the Clr and I too later made a follow up call, which was answered by a secretary or something like that. She was told to inform or rather to invite the Clr.

On Sunday we went for the meeting, we again invited him to come and his response was that he had not been informed. A quick one was directed to the call that was answered by a woman, he told us she did not tell him.

The meeting wet ahead without him. The whole meeting is on the MP3 record . Please kindly take a few minutes and listen to the people. I hope this shows you all what our people are made to endure. Again, it is not the ANC but individuals who are using the organization to whip the people. How sad Nobody, Nobody should undermine the determination of the people to liberate themselves, with or without us

8/3/2010 9:13:19 PM Viva Vavi KZN Pat Stevens, three weeks ago when Zuma vs Khoza’s daughter child scandal was in the news and South Africans making noise you said, Jacob Zuma will overcome this storm and buried it. If you remember well, I agreed with you that you are correct, but I said Zuma is predictable another controversy will come. What is happening now Mr Stevens? He failed to declare his business interests and gifts to the parliament.

Pat Stevens, I told you so.

Another scandal is coming, it is just a matter of time, watch the space. This is Msholozi we talking about.

On Comrade Zwelinzima Vavi, he is spot on. Forward comrade Vavi forward. Tell this corrupt ANC because they refuse ti listen to us. You know what, ANC has betrayed the voters and next elections, they are going down. Mr Stevens I said to you ANC is going down to the bottom of Limpopo river and it is doing that at the present moment.

Jacob Zuma has turned this country into a banana republic and he must step down before he finishes it. It is already finished anyway. Internationally they called him a buffoon and South Africa a circus republic. My main concern is that we told you that this will happen.

AK, Wa Nkunda, Makatini Miles Bhudu didn’t I tell you? What is happening today with your black jesus as Makgashule said. Do you call this the gains of Polokwane?

8/3/2010 5:49:41 PM Roy Morgan Pat Stevens

It has been a pleasure to know you through your writings and I have a pretty good sense what kind of person you are. I sometimes did not agree with things you said but appreciated many of your postings especially coming from a white person and wished that our other white brothers and sisters were genuine in the way you seem to be.

Being Minister of Finance? Well, I think perhaps the Minister of Communication so that you can sort out the fourth estate which is running amok big time.

We the friends of JZ would miss your writings on this site and I wish you the best in all your endeavours. I wish you had stayed longer so that we could together teach the nation the evils of racism and assist government in drafting mechanisms that would deal with this issue and in particular the media.

Always remember that your contributions to making this country a better place for all its citizens would forever be appreciated and hope you would continue doing so wherever you are.

You take care!

8/3/2010 4:43:52 PM Ngcolosi Peter Stevens - you can relocate to UK since your ego is now too big. Even JZ does not need hypocryts like you. Cde, you were warned. I agree with COSATU, we need to protect this country from vultures. JZ cannot break the law just because he technically doesn't understand it. We cannot stand this anymore. The ANC kept quite when Mbeki became arrogant, why are doing same mistake again. jZ has forgotten about the Polokwane mandate.
8/3/2010 4:38:42 PM Dumisani Msholozi omuhle are we going to win this cope, DA and those in our movement who are planning to Thobo Mbeki you. God Luck to ALL this chalenges that are seeking to see you no more. I will always love you Msholozi! Phela wena awutheniowe njenga lo ongena kati.
8/3/2010 4:03:08 PM Muwanga Comrades

Good luck in dealing with the media.

I told you long time ago get yourselves a seasoned/experienced accountant and a lawyer to advise you so that your "ducks are in a line".

The riot act must be re-emphasised at each meeting.

aluta continua comrades. You can do it!

This guy from sunday times says JZ should have kept quiet. The time for black people to keep quiet is over. We as black people need to speak out against imperialist / colonial minded journalism. We must speak out and teach such journalism culture after all we gave them culture and in addition they stole ours and made it theirs........ twisted it and are re exporting it via the media

8/3/2010 12:21:00 PM Pat Stevens A BIG ROUND OF APPLAUSE FOR THE SOUTH AFRICAN PRESS

Who really know how to ruin a country.

The British media’s hostility towards President Jacob Zuma could have adverse consequences for the relations between South Africa and the United Kingdom. It could worsen relations between the UK and SA.

University of Johannesburg’s Centre for the Study of Democracy director Steven Friedman told The Citizen yesterday.

8/3/2010 12:03:02 PM Anonymous Sowetan

WE MUST take as threats President Jacob Zuma and Limpopo Premier Cassel Mathale’s declaration that Julius Malema is a future president of our country.

There is nothing on the table that suggests he has the makings of a future head of our state. The two gentlemen are not even able to venture whatever it is they think destines him for great things.

Evidence on the ground suggests he would make a tinpot dictator. He is unprincipled, uncouth and certainly lacks tact.

He creates the impression of being a champion of the people and then goes around dripping in bling. When asked how he justifies or affords his lifestyle he says “white kids in Sandton” have better bling, as though “white Sandton kids” said they too were fighting for the poor.

For someone who told thousands of elderly people who came to his birthday party that he was raised by a grandmother, Malema has displayed shocking manners when dealing with senior comrades such as Naledi Pandor and former minister Zola Skweyiya in his own movement.

This supposed champion of the Freedom Charter is silent when poor students demand free education but shouts loudest when BEE fat cats stand to lose their mines and demands that these be nationalised.

To say that former president Nelson Mandela was like that in his youth is an insult to Madiba and historically incorrect. Mandela was part of a group of ANC Youth League members who disrupted meetings and sought to reform the ANC from being a party of “chiefs and gentlemen” to the mass-based movement it is today.

What we know about Malema is that he has galvanised political power to amass personal wealth and to dispense patronage. Instead of explaining this, he resorts to insults and that last refuge of scoundrels – the race card.

His lawyer, Tumi Mokwena, seems to have been afflicted by this false sense of invincibility. He seemingly cannot explain why Malema’s name appears on the Companies and Intellectual Property Registration Office (Cipro), opting for a lame “miscommunication” between his client and the company he owns to explain this anomaly.

It is telling that neither Malema nor his lawyer has reacted to the City Press dare that they sue if they honestly believe Malema’s signature had been forged.

The deification of this fellow by some within the ANC has him believing his own hype. He truly believes he is something of a prime minister.

Last week banners at his birthday called him “President Julius Malema”.

Be afraid.

The problem with demagogues whose only means of accruing wealth is proximity to state power is that they tend to cling to it regardless of how it affects democracy.

Right now all indications are that Malema has used his influence or municipalities have assumed that they ought to give him contracts to do work for them.

And where these companies have done shoddy work (as City Press showed two Sundays ago), municipal officials have been too scared to say so, lest they be removed from their cushy government jobs.

In classic dictator-in- training style, many in the ANC who have misgivings about him are too shy to say so in public. They are creating a monster. Actually, they already have. They are now bottle-feeding this baby monster and will one day feign surprise when they learn it is behaving as it is wont.

Never before has South Africa cowered before a youngster who has no apparent leadership virtue to speak of, as we seem to do with young Juju.

I accept that every saint had a past and every sinner a future. But as of today, Julius Malema has all the makings of a future dictator.

8/3/2010 8:07:14 AM Viva Vavi KZN It is with great pleasure to inform you that COPE is growing in KZN despite intimidations by ANC war lords. Ugu District (Port Shepstone/ Port Edward area) is the fastest growing in terms of branches followed by Ethekwini and Si*sonke. PMB and KZN North are catching up slowly.

Yesterday in Durban we managed to launched 3 braches ward 19, 22 (both from Clermont) and 42 in Inanda. Zikalala denied claims by COPE that ANC war lords came with their guns and weapons to butcher COPE members. I was there when this incident happens two weeks ago. Your (ANC) branch executive member by the name of Mashakashaka was the leader of the mob that chased COPE away. COPE members open a case with the police, and Mashakashaka is not yet arrested despite overwhelming evidence (video evidence) against him.

In KZN, by mentioning Lekota name or Dandala or Shilowa, you can be killed or arrested by the police for public violence or crossing the red traffic light. This is how serious politics are in KZN. This is how the ANC of Jacob Zuma operates, butcher those who oppose it.

8/3/2010 7:39:37 AM Pat Stevens Dear Friends of JZ,

My Telkom email cuts off today so I will no longer be posting, I will be history on the Friends of JZ and so will the two novels I wrote about South Africa, the literature of that country is now the sole preserve of the press. Recent events have shown us most empathetically, that this is going to be extremely uncomfortable for the ANC, but they have made no effort to counter it so they must live with the consequences.

Twenty years of my writing are down the drain, but I still have the writing talent that developed from that long effort, and the satisfaction of knowing that I did everything I could. I have written South Africa out of my heart, and I have cleared my consciousness for something else, there is another book germinating that has nothing to do with politics. So it’s Africa Adieu and on to pastures new, quite frankly I am feeling relieved, as I said in the poem I leave serene in peace.

There are, it may be, so many kinds of voices in the world, and none of them is without signification. Therefore if I know not the meaning of the voice, I shall be unto him that speaketh a barbarian, and he that speaketh shall be a barbarian unto me. Even so ye, forasmuch as ye are zealous of spiritual gifts, seek that ye may excel to the edifying of the church. Wherefore let him that speaketh in an unknown tongue pray that he may interpret. For if I speak in an unknown tongue, my spirit prayeth, but my understanding is unfruitful. What is it then? I will pray with the spirit, and I will pray with the understanding also: I will sing with the spirit, and I will sing with the understanding also.

1 Corinthians 14 10-15

I can assure you the voice of understanding the ANC so desperately seek but cannot find, is neither that of Engels or Marx, so power to the arm of the ANCYL who seem to be the only ANC members who fully comprehend this.

7/3/2010 8:46:23 PM Pat Stevens Roy Morgan,

President Zuma’s first state visit to Britain was set up perfectly by the local media, they blazoned scandalous stories about him in the newspapers, and the British media responded precisely as they had planned. Then JZ also reacted exactly as our media wanted, the Sunday Times today castigated him for his lack of protocol on a state visit, the editors play Jacob Zuma like a puppet then gloat afterwards. If President Zuma truly believes his public relations people are doing a good job, then quite frankly he is not worth defending, if he doesn’t then perhaps he should contact me.

7/3/2010 6:46:24 PM Pat Stevens AH! HA! Just figured out the riddle of the amazing R200 note, everybody is in exactly the same position they were before, because although they do not ‘owe’ R200 they are no longer ‘owed’ R200. Maybe the ANC should make me Minister of Finance?
7/3/2010 6:14:08 PM Pat Stevens ECONOMIC RECOVERY

It is a slow day in the small Eastern Cape Province town of King William 's Town , and streets are deserted. Times are tough, everybody is in debt, and everybody is living on credit. A rich tourist visiting the area drives through town, stops at the hotel, and lays a R200 note on the desk saying he wants to inspect the rooms upstairs to pick one for the night.

As soon as he walks upstairs, the hotel owner grabs the note and runs next door to pay his debt to the butcher. The butcher takes the R200 and runs down the street to retire his debt to the pig farmer. The pig farmer takes the R200 and heads off to pay his bill to his supplier, the Farmer's Co-op.

The guy at the Farmer's Co-op takes the R200 and runs to pay his debt to the local prostitute, who has also been facing hard times and has had to offer her "services" on credit. The hooker rushes to the hotel and pays off her room bill with the hotel owner. The hotel proprietor then places the R200 back on the counter so the rich traveler will not suspect anything. At that moment the traveler comes down the stairs, states that the rooms are not satisfactory, picks up the R200 note and leaves town.

No one produced anything. No one earned anything... However, the whole town is now out of debt and looks forward to the future with a lot more optimism.

The moral of the story is this, if the slow witted ANC had made Pat Stevens the Minister of Finance, the country would not be in the economic trouble it is today. Or maybe the country would be in worse economic trouble, because I genuinely cannot figure this story out, can anybody else?
