'Such are the perils of democracy.'

Are you calling Mugabe's government a democracy???

BTW, yes I am referring to it as a democracy.
From the CIA factbook:
Elections: election last held 9-11 March 2002 (next to be held NA March 2008);
election results: Robert Gabriel MUGABE reelected president; percent of vote - Robert Gabriel MUGABE 56.2%, Morgan TSVANGIRAI 41.9%

Actually I was referring to the South Africa comment.

"Next on the list, South Africa.
This is what happens when you let the lunatics run the asylum."
