Who didn't know this was coming? South Africa's role in this farce shows how far they've degraded.

Ain't that the truth.

Funny how Comrade Mugabe didn't want expatriates to vote.
All those folks living overseas...and beyong the grasp
of his thugs...would have sent Zimbabwe's very own
Dear Leader packing.

Another petty dictator tramples on democracy.

My guess is the people of Zimbabwe heard what a joyous experience starvation is, and went with the guy most likely to bring it about.

A revolution is coming I hope.

Tsvangirai has said the election was marked by fraud, fear and intimidation — an assessment echoed by the United States, Britain and other Western nations.

Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice accused Mugabe of policies "designed to repress, crush and otherwise stifle expressions of differences in Zimbabwe."

Tsvangirai, who has accused Mugabe, 81, of rigging previous elections in 2000 and 2002, hinted on Friday his supporters may take their anger to the streets rather than attempt to fight the result in court.
