#4 Who says God doesn't answer prayers? Now He needs to finish the job, and give Bob his well-earned, red-hot reward.

#5 Sorry, guys: Zimbabwean President Robert Mugabe says he visited neighbouring South Africa at the weekend for a family function and not to get medical treatment as reported by media there.
The Zimbabwean government has denied reports by South African newspapers quoting unnamed sources saying the veteran leader, who turns 80 next month, had been to South Africa for medical treatment. In remarks broadcast on Zimbabwean state television on Tuesday, a jovial Mugabe said he had gone to participate in a traditional marriage ceremony for his nephew, whose family settled in South Africa decades ago.
"I am very strong, very fit and I thank God. I have my own doctors here in Zimbabwe that I move with, but South Africa -- I have never been there (for treatment)," he said on Tuesday.


You're gonna have to drive a stake through what passes for his heart. Then burn the body.

#6 "Authoritarian leader" = murderous dictator.

In other news, Bush = Hitler.

#7 It would be fun to paint my face wit photoluminscent paint, donn a black hooded robe, and show up at rallies or along parade routes where Bob might happen by.

#8 This is like waiting for Deng Xiaoping to pass on to the great commune in the fire pits a couple of years ago.

#9 Anyone want to lay odds that Bob's eventual and welcome death will be hidden for a week or so? Just enough time for his family and lackeys to get access to the overseas bank accounts...

#10 Let's hope he gets a hard time in hell soon, and then when I get there, he's going to have an even harder time.

#12 So who will take them? ChiComs are nowadays forgiving African debt, but saying, No more aid. Anyway, a black man/mfazi will stand out like a dog's ball over there. Zimbos will have to learn to forget, again, but Rhodies don't forgive or forget. I have my own Youth Brigade, in fact two of them....

#13 So who will take them?

Wherever they've already bought property and influence. Off-hand, I'd say France, South Africa, or a half-dozen other sub-equatorial African nations...

#14 Poison?

I'm going to be very disappointed if it's stomach flu.

Sars bird version?
