#1 Not so sure about any moral high ground South Africa attained after overturning the old system.

But good to learn that Tutu is capable of shame. Interestingly, he condemns his homeland for failing to take a stand against despotism - yet he's mostly known for condemning the US for actually taking stands - against vastly more consequential tyrannies, at the cost of its own blood, treasure, and slandered honor.

#3 Tutu probably hates Mugabe either because he is no longer a socialist, belongs to a different tribe, or because Mugabe won't cut him in for a piece of the action.

#5 That must be quite a sight. A archbishop in a tutu. No wonder no one takes him seriously. Is he off his meds?

#6 This Tutu is a complete jerk and part of the crowd responsible for the destruction of South Africa. That he's coming close to saying the right thing now doesn't start to expiate his past sins. He's a scumbag who deserves a hard punch right in the middle of his ugly face.
