| Yes, We Have No Banana |

| Is there some wierd clearing house somewhere that these African Dictators-du-jour get their names from? I mean, WTF man? "Banana, 67, a former Methodist minister, was found guilty in 1999 of 11 counts of sodomy and abusing his power to sexually assault and carry out "unnatural acts" with men, most of whom were on his presidential staff." And they say working for Dubya’s a bear. Sheesh. "Born in 1936, Banana was chosen to serve as president in a largely ceremonial post when the British colony attained independence in 1980. He relinquished the post in 1987 when Mr Mugabe, then prime minister, became executive president." So much for being "top banana", I guess... |

A spokesman for the group refused to respond to questions regarding the allegations of a relationship between Mr. Banana and Snorky. |

| #4 I noticed that they had to work in the fact that hew WAS a minister. I bet he was a butt pirate long before he became a minister. I wonder if Hillary would be this 'hard' on the 'staff' if she were in charge? Her husband did set the standard for 'Executive Orals'. Stop me! I have so many Clinton jokes! |
