HARARE, Zimbabwe - On a podium flanked by shivering cornstalks, Robert Mugabe celebrated his inauguration yesterday to another six-year term as president, marking a formal end to what had been Zimbabwe's most violent and controversial election since independence two decades ago.

Making his first public appearance since casting his vote more than a week ago, Mugabe struck an early tone of reconciliation, calling on all Zimbabweans to ''inject correct doses of love and fervor into our relationships hitherto soured by hostility and anguish.'' Reconciliation? O, sure. You have to wonder what the correct meaning of 'correct' is in this context.

Oh yeah, future generations, 200 people, in toto, 2 wearing the European designer clothes of their choice, and the rest ( their slaves ) buck naked, starving , and in chains. Mugabe is in serious denial here; as are the rest of his followers and pals.
Hmmmm ... forget the first scenario ; I've changed my mind. There simply will be NO future generations to bless his name and thank him.

His arrival brought no pomp and circumstance and hardly any cheers. Only five of his regional counterparts sat beside him on the podium. Mugabe praised the election as evidence ''of the maturity of our democratic practice and level of discipline prevailing in our society.'' Extraordinary!

" On the morning of his swearing-in, despite the cannon fire and air force flyover, Mugabe struggled to hold a brave face. Sheltered from the public on the manicured State House grounds, the 78-year-old leader took the oath before a crowd of party stalwarts and supporters. His arrival brought no pomp and circumstance and hardly any cheers. Only five of his regional counterparts sat beside him on the podium. "
Hmmmmm only a well "groomed" / controlled leader would have no ceremony...or a man entirely afraid of his own population...during his coronation.
Possibly he's both.....either way he needs to be removed.

Zimbabwe farmer found dead after 'attack'--
Harare - A white farmer was shot and killed near his homestead early on Monday, apparently while trying to escape an attack by settlers and war veterans, said a farm community spokesperson. Jenni Williams of the Commercial Farmers' Union said Terry Ford of Gowrie farm, about 40km southwest of Harare, was found shot through the head. He was the tenth white farmer to be killed since President Robert Mugabe's supporters began the seizure of white-owned commercial farms, two years ago.

Substitute Hillary Clinton's name and you will have Amerika 2004 unless God - and some spine filled Republicans- intervene. Massive Vote Fraud IS THE PLAN NOW for 2002, America. Give the Dems the House and the Senate and we will see Hillary in power in 2004.
MASSIVE, NOBODY-CAN-DO-ANYTHING-ABOUT-IT, VOTER FRAUD IS THE PLAN!
Now, how will we stop it?

You know those rescue missions flown to get people out of Cuba? Why do I see the same thing in Zimbabwe's future?
I know we can't save the world but I hate sitting by as the innocent die.

Mugabee has a new recipe for stew - he uses white farmers as the meat. Great black leader - I wonder why Jessie hasn't flown over to help celebrate?
To: johnboy
LOL - when our plans become public - right.
That's just it - don't you know voter fraud is legal for RATS and illegal for everyone else?
