#2 Mugabe and his fellow crimninals have refined the communist state to its perfect state: Complete barbarism.

I got five bucks that sez our liberal/musical community starts a "We are the World II" before the year is out for the coming famine in Zimbabwe

Anyone want a piece of that?

#3 Not in the next year -- the 2004 election will have the softheaded types too focused on Bush hatred. I figure it will be 2005 before the loons notice the Zim famine.

I fully expect to hear someone blame Bush for Zimbabwe, too.

#4 Only a reporter for the Beeb could be idiotic enough to believe a country with an inflation rate of more than 426% could have a shortage of banknotes. The "shortage" is, of course, merely the pretext the Mugabe regime is using to justify their nonstop printing of notes.
