Sirte, 11 Sept. (AKI) - Coca Cola is an African beverage, Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi was reported as saying on Monday.

Speaking during celebrations for the 7th anniversary of the African Union in Sirte, his hometown, Gaddafi claimed that the US-drink was African as "its essences come from our plants and so multinationals must pay compensation to us."

I got beer coming out of my nose.

[Graybeard58]

I didn't think he could get any nuttier. He proved me wrong.

[okstate]

Should we keep some of these creeps around just so we can get some laughs out of them?

[freedumb2003]

Sounds like that short-lived series where the old black dude said that Larry Bird was really a black man.

[shankbear]

Sierra Tango Foxtrot Uniform Omar. Do you want more Reagan surprises shot down your throat???

[T Minus Four]

Yeah, ok, right. The check is in the mail. Wait, I drink diet coke, how does that figure?

[Triggerhippie]

Close, Mr. Qaddafi, but Atlanta is in Georgia... despite the MARTA acronym.

[Graybeard58]

Should we keep some of these creeps around just so we can get some laughs out of them?

We don't need him for that, this country is crawling with liberals.

[PJBankard]

Next thing you know, this guy will tell us that Albert Einstein was really an African.

[the anti-liberal]

I'm not sure if he understands Intellectual Property or Copyright and Patent law...

If he finds a way around those well, more power to him.

[bannie]

Is anyone else here old enough to remember when Russia used to claim that they invented everything?

[ClaudiusI]

Forgive my ignorance, but didn't cocoa leaves originate in South America?

[Big Guy and Rusty 99]

crack kills.

[Graybeard58]

That was Fred Sanford. He said Larry Byrd was "passing" for white.

[the anti-liberal]

So that's where Gore got it from!

[sionnsar]

Sounds like that short-lived series where the old black dude said that Larry Bird was really a black man.

Or Clinton the first black president? Note that one for the history books!

[Westlander]

Yes, first in everything.

[bannie]

Probably infected through hanoijane or traitorjohn?

[T. Buzzard Trueblood]

The Libyan leader once claimed that British poet and playwright William Shakespeare was actually an Arab immigrant to Britain called Sheikh Zubeir.

Speaking of Coca-Cola, I am now wiping it off of my monitor. I wish I had heard about this years ago, Sheikh Zubeir would have been a great Freeper handle.

[Horatio Gates]

LOL...Wow and this whole time I thought the Soviet Union came up with the Coke formula first...8>)

[Graybeard58]

Yeah, ok, right. The check is in the mail. Wait, I drink diet coke, how does that figure?

I do too, the way I figure it, we owe him less than regular Coke drinkers.

[Eric in the Ozarks]

Muammar is into the cooking sherry again.

[freedumb2003]

That was Fred Sanford. He said Larry Byrd was "passing" for white.

I know that one -- but this was a different "black" series (one of the early ones before UPN) where the guy said Bird's real name was "Muhammed Mustafa" or something like that.

It was funny in the delivery.

[Porterville]

Just keep buying it you Libyan dumbass

[Porterville]

Just keep buying it you Libyan dumb-ass

[dangus]

Bite me, Moe; I drink Dr. Pepper. (Gross fact: You know Cherry cola, right? Dr. Pepper is prune cola! But it tastes good anyway.)

[Graybeard58]

I wish I had heard about this years ago, Sheikh Zubeir would have been a great Freeper handle.

T. Buzzard Trueblood aint bad.

[HeartlandOfAmerica]

must pay compensation to us."

Well, come and try and collect, BUCKO!

[Thinkin' Gal]

Gaddafi is in denial.

Zionist beverage conspiracy ping.

[garyhope]

Wacky, daffy, Gaddafi. He gives fruitcake a bad name.

I kinda like his outfits, hats and craziness sometimes. It's amusing.

[ReignOfError]

Kola nuts are African, but Coca leaves are South American. When was the last time you heard about a terror attack by the Kinshasa Cartel?

[the anti-liberal]

Hmmm, could be, could be - 'I invented everythingitis' may very well be a contagion.

Let's hope it doesn't become a pandemic.

[Darkwolf377]

Coca Cola is African

And French Fries come from the moon!

[sionnsar]

LOL...Wow and this whole time I thought the Soviet Union came up with the Coke formula first...8>)

Russia is Pepsi country. China is Coke country.

[alecqss]

He probably tasted the original Coca-Cola - the one from the beginning of the last century whose main active ingredient was cocaine.

[crazyhorse691]

Is anyone else here old enough to remember when Russia used to claim that they invented everything?

Yep. And I resent that comment about old enough. Guess I will let it go for now as my cane is clear on the other side of the room and I can't find my seeing glasses with my reading glasses on.

[bannie]

Resent being old??? Silly! It's the new chic!!!

[crazyhorse691]

Resent being old???

---

Only in the mornings when I first get up. Didn't know bones could make that much noise. I don't feel chic right then.

[Mrs. Shawnlaw]

Algore is from Russia?

[Fiddlstix]

And French Fries come from the moon!

LOL. Goes good with all that cheese that comes from the moon too.

[Donald Rumsfeld Fan]

[the anti-liberal]

"Algore is from Russia?"

'Splains alot, don't it?

[political1]

They had Coca Cola, then New Coke, Then they had Classic Coke, and New Coke at the same time for a short while. Now it is back to plain ole' Coca Cola. Maybe there could be a compromise, and they can give them a percentage of the profits from the New Coke, and the recipe. It is called Sam's Cola now. OK now he can take on Wall Mart too.

[NeoCaveman]

This guy is so bloody entertaining. I mean he's certifiably looney toons.

[blam]

"Is anyone else here old enough to remember when Russia used to claim that they invented everything?"

Yup. I remember that.

Sounds like that short-lived series where the old black dude said that Larry Bird was really a black man.

Are you trying to suggest that he was not?!?! How dare you! :)

[weegee]

Racist. What's next? Bragging about ancestors with wings and white devils being a science experiment gone wrong?

[stultorum]

Gaddaffi is a racist nutcase.
