Whether or not they were aware, the leaders of the Western democracies gathered in Pretoria’s stadium were inadvertently taking part in the celebration of “the people’s democracy” and not the democracy. (…)

On the day of Mandela's Memorial Service in the Pretoria Stadium, the former deputy general secretary of the South African Communist Party, Solly Mapaila stated in an interview that Mandela was a member of the party but it was denied at the time for “political reasons”.

What is it with liberals and funerals ... creepy, unseemly and totally heartless. It's like they are dancing on the grave of the deceased for their own craven ideological purpose.

if smartphones had existed at the time of Paul Wellstones funeral....we'd have seen the same sort of inappropriate adolescent behavior recently displayed by barry soetero and company !

On the day of Mandela’s Memorial Service in the Pretoria Stadium, the former deputy general secretary of the South African Communist Party, Solly Mapaila stated in an interview with the Business Day, that Mandela, was a member of the party but it was denied at the time for “political reasons”.

“At his arrest in 1962, Nelson Mandela was not only a member of the then underground South African Communist Party, but was also a member of our party’s central committee. To us, South African communists, Cde [Comrade – note by TP] Mandela shall forever symbolize the fundamental contribution of the SACP in our liberation struggle” – the party said in a statement reacting to Mandela’s death.

The crowd in the stadium gathered to remember their former President, cheered enthusiastically to acknowledge the murderous African Dictator In Chief, Robert Mugabe. Even him could not believe it.
