Ok RG...I’d like to think you’re the money but alas....
....allow me to enlighten....
.....Already Al Sharpton and others are out and about and blasting the so-called “Conservative right wing” attack on Mandela that kept him locked in jail. So MTP gets a tape of Dick Cheney, I’m sure y’all seen it....and Cheney elaborates....it wasn’t that the Reagan administration didn’t want Mandela released from jail, it’s just that the agreement also included an endorsement of the ANC I think it’s called....the African National Congress-a blatant Communist group and remember this was during the Cold War.
It’s like anything else....so okay....the apartheid thing is a bad thing but what’s gonna replace it? The tendency of American politicos of the era is to patch it up and run for the next election. And apartheid....that was an idealolgoy of the big companies mining diamonds and such in that area....with ex-patriates doing all the work and demanding that the natives be kept at bay. It wasn’t nice but it isn’t like the natives set up a government or anything. Just Communists and Muslims fighting to gain control, steal the Capitalists’ property.
The media is in its element, being able to change the facts in a communal slobberfest. And Obama’s going to shock the world in his desperation....I can see the writing on the wall.
Mandela was a Communist but seems it was mostly because that was all there was in terms of help and such. America was on the side of whoever quelled the problems.
Like this all something new.
So back to my original point....they are setting the table for media talk (and they know it will be a 24/7 Mandela talk fest and they’ll be desperate for something new) that it was the Conservative right wing who kept Mandela in jail.
So should the current Conservative right wing dare to suggest some of Obama’s acquaintance with Mandela as will be presented might be exaggerated...well these are the guys who kept Mandela in jail all those years. Who you gonna believe, us or the jailers?
It’s how they’re plotting. We can only hope the pubs are plotting as well.
They’re politicians, it’s what they do.
