When considering what to get Robert Mugabe for his birthday, one first must understand that Zimbabwe’s president is a man who demands the finest.
His birthday parties don’t cost hundreds of thousands; they cost millions. His parties aren’t attended by thousands, but by tens of thousands. And they don’t eat elephant; they eat baby elephant.
This was the predicament in which one local landowner named Tendai Musasa found himself when figuring out what he would get Mugabe for his 91st birthday party, which cost $1 million and was held this past weekend. “We regard him as our father,” Musasa said to the Los Angeles Times of a leader who has been in power for 35 years and is widely criticized for his human rights record, disastrous economic policies and impoverished citizenry. “Our provider, our hero. We regard him as a very courageous man.”
For such a courageous man, who years ago instituted violent and contentious land-redistribution policies, Musasa would bring out the big guns. He would kill a baby elephant.

Did Obama attend the birthday bash for Mugabe?
Obama doesn’t do elephant. He does dog.
One of Holder’s people. One of Obama’s sons if Obama lived in the 1920’s.
No, they weren't serving dog for dinner so he sent his regrets. And last time I made a moochelle comment it irritated the moderator, so............
Baby elephant just doesn’t sound tasty to me. I think I’ll pass.
There are few people I wish death on in the world, but RM is at the very top. Please die already.
Fake, but accurate.
He’s got some cool chicks!
He’s everything Obama would like to be at 91. /S

The black American electorate has an almost identical view of Obama. It's a very African tribal-nationalist attitude common in Africa, and it explains in part the catastrophic political history of postcolonial Africa. Obama clearly is an admirer of this political culture and wants to import it philosophically, as well as literally through immigration.
Gosh, I remember when Mugabe was a noble rebel commander ousting the Evil Rhodesians.
The Liberals loved him then.
But of course they condemn him now for his racism, corruption and brutality.
Right?
Right?!
“Obama doesn’t do elephant. He does dog.”
Obama don’t dig on pachedyrme.
Baby Elephant - The other White Meat.
In last weeks “Million Dollar Critic”, Coren ate seal in Quebec City, commenting on the “First Nation” eatery, that seal and other paleolithic culinary delights, were what people ate 4000 years ago because they had no choice.
There’s no real reason or need to eat them nowadays.
(He neglected to comment on poutine, for some reason. French fry snob?)
Is that why the elephant takes its frustrations out on school lunches?
