Nelson Mandela and RTEs death watch

Breaking news:

Nelson Mandela coughed 8 minutes ago

...

NM farted last night

....

NM had cornflakes for breakfast

.....

Must be angling for a Primetime from JBurg

Downright weird listening to Michael Murphy leading our National news with such as... 'Nelson Mandela has just passed a solid stool'

You think someone should have let him sit on it?

caustic 1 · 22-06-2013 12:21PM

In your opinion, I've been waiting for that solid stool for days man.

kneemos · 22-06-2013 12:28PM

They do tend to orgasm a bit when somebody like that dies.

Busted Flat. · 22-06-2013 12:29PM

I am sick and tired of listening about that clown, what did he do for his people ?. No one would have known about him only for his wife Winnie, she fought all her life for him, spent years in house arrest, degraded by the press, but fought gallantly for her people, then deserted by that selfish clown.

El Guapo! · 22-06-2013 12:30PM

To be fair, Neldon Mandela has been trolling the world for years now.
Every few weeks he goes into hospital and is "at deaths door".
Then he's back out again fit as a fiddle.

caustic 1 · 22-06-2013 12:32PM

Hmmmm I am thinking someone should google that angel Winnie.

Pumpkinseeds · 22-06-2013 12:34PM

Winnie Mandela was no fricking saint, make no mistake about that and her extremism is only one of the reasons he got rid of her. I've no interest in Mandela tbh. It's ironic to see Jacob Zuma taking every opportunity to plonk himself next to Mandela for photo ops. A dictator expoliting a freedom fighter, yet nothing gets mentioned about that.

So the African people were oppressed by the whites now they are oppressed by black despots. Lots of progress there then:rolleyes:

She liked a bit of 'necklacing'.

Necklacing is the practice of summary execution and torture carried out by forcing a rubber tire, filled with petrol, around a victim's chest and arms, and setting it on fire. The victim may take up to 20 minutes to die, suffering severe burns in the process.

That is the legacy the clown left his people. Winnie is no saint, I agree, but what freedom fighter is, saintly freedom fighters are for comics, and the people that read them. Yet the west honors the likes of the mass murders that rule Israel today, some who bombed the $hit out of the brits before murdering thousands in Palestine. They are respected and accepted by the western world today.

Every freedom movement in the world had their own way of treating Touts and traitors. Look what they are doing to Bradley Manning, what about water boarding, the torture chambers in Iraq, Afghanistan, and Guantanamo, and the secret jails in Poland and other countries run by the CIA. Get a grip, the world is not a nice colour of black and white.

For years before he became a clown, he was like a caged tiger. Winnie is a bit of an elephant. South Africa is like a Big Top tent in which the moral highground of politics has taken an acrobatic U-turn. Zuma is definitely the Ring-Master now. The whole thing is a circus isnt it. No place for a bearded lady though which is a pity cos I'd really like to include one in this paragraph.

That is an insulting comment, about people who are still struggling for their freedom, from the likes of british rule, and the dictators that followed them.

Disappointing response. Not one effort at a circus pun. :mad:

Zuma was elected, South Africa is a democracy.

I don't get the whole 'pray for Mandela' thing-he's 94 FFS; the man probably just wants to go at this stage.
