Adrian de Bourbon, the lawyer for the Commercial Farmers Union, had asked Chidyausiku and two other new appointees to recuse themselves from the hearing, alleging they had shown open allegiance to the ruling party and its land seizures.

None of the judges stepped down.

Monday's ruling described de Bourbon's request as "unbridled arrogance and insolence."

"This is the first and last time such contempt of this court will go unpunished," it said.

Yup, they've busted on clean through to the other side of the looking glass. Sheer unfettered madness on wheels.

Asking the court to act fairly when deciding whether or not to steal one's land is now defined as "unbridled arrogance and insolence"?

Words fail me.

"Equal treatment under the law is not afforded whites in Africa"

That isn't even the half of it. Merely asking for something approaching equal treatment under law is now damned as "contempt of court" -- and will be punished.

The left should be proud of itself. It's completely redefined reality, while at the same time presenting the definitive image of insanity.

"Instead they will try to band-aid it in every conceivable way."

Actually, I suspect they'll try to band-aid it in just one way: they'll demand that the "racist" USA hand over an endless stream of US Dollars.

"Illegal to criticize Mugabe"

Ah, so there is precedent for the "new" type of Campaign Finance Reform after all!

[Don Joe]

Well, that does it. I'm now a Peta supporter!

[nopardons]

Please excuse the massive postings. I swear that I hit the post button only once ! I have NO idea how or why this happened.

[Don Joe]

Whereupon I'd be tempted to loudly proclaim "I have nothing but contempt for this court, you bunch of arrogant bootlickers".

That would be playing into their hands, giving them just what they want: "justification" to kill you, to make an example to others who might not give them due deference.

These mofos must be infected with the same brainworms that got Idi Amin.

This nightmare scenario being played out should be a required study for everyone who lectures Israel on how it needs to be "reasonable" with the Palies. What we're seeing here is a coming attraction of what'll happen in the Middle East if the lefters have their way.

"Mbeki , the president of South Africa, has said he will take over the white's properties, by the end of three years. The black South Africans have killed MORE white farmers, and stolen their land, than the thugs in Zimbabwe have , and not a damned word about THAT has gotten out to the West, in any media."

Mbeki is every bit as sane and intelligent as Mugabe. Have you heard him raving like a mad dog with his tinfoil AIDS "theories", as he drives Western medical assistance away?

Don't worry, the starving masses of Africa will just have to come over to America and Europe. Black Africa comprised only 7% of the world population on 1900 but will comprise 50% by 2100. Amazing population growth. They are certainly most successful in propogating their kind even if totally inept in every other endeavor such as feeding themselves.

Yes, as a matter of fact, I have. Thabo Mbeki is more intelligent than Mugabe ; sort of a " Hitler ", to Mugabe's " Musolini " ... if you know what I mean. Both are insane, power hungry , tinpot dictators, whom the LEFTY West helped to foist upon each respective country. Now, of course, they have NOTHING to say about the tter collapse of either country and the carnage which has ensued. How bloody typical. : - (

"I'm old enough to remember when the liberal western press denounced Ian Smith's Rhodesia as a racist, fascist oppressor and predicted utopia under the enlightened "Dr." Mugabe. Now that utopia has arrived, nothing but silence from these bozos. "

I am too Buddy. I would LOVE to get my hands on some of those articles to throw right back in their faces. Might be a good idea to republish them some way to illustrate the moral and intellectual vacuum that has always existed on the liberal philosophy and mindset. After decades of being totally wrong, you would think they would have learned from their past mistakes.

It is against the rules, of this forum, to drag an argument from one thread, to another. Since you know absolutely NOTHING , at all, about the topic of this thread, and are utterly off topic, get off this thread and stop stalking me. Oh, and THIS is the ONLY answer that you deserve, and the ONLY one that you'll get, from me, on this thread.

[nopardons]

They NEVER learn from their mistakes. They don't believe that they make any. : - (
