Mugabe refuses to talk to US ‘idiot’
The Times ^ | 7/6/09 | staff

Posted on 07/06/2009 4:32:45 PM PDT by pissant

ZIMBABWE’S state media reported yester day that Robert Mugabe described the US assistant secretary of state for Africa as “an idiot” after their acrimonious meeting at the African Unit summit meeting in Libya.

# Mugabe calls US official an idiot

According to the Herald newspaper, Mugabe said nothing came of the talks.

“You wouldn’t speak to an idiot of that nature. Who is he?

“I hope he is not speaking for Barack Obama. I told him he was a shame, a great shame being an African-American,” Mugabe was quoted as saying about Johnnie Carson.

I’m not nearly as concerned about what Mugabe does or doesn’t do or say, as I am about having a marxist fraud in the oval office.

“I’m not nearly as concerned about what Mugabe does or doesn’t do or say, as I am about having a marxist fraud in the oval office.”

That’s clear enough. It might be more productive to be concerned about an electorate that has repeatedly demonstrated its willingness in recent years to relinquish its shrinking liberties for the sake of empty promises of peace, comfort, and security. A population of such voters will eventually get the kind of leadership we have been seeing for some time, willing to promise a lot, keep their closest friends and supporters well lubricated with Other People’s Money, and leave it to later politicians to deal with the consequences of their future unfunded promises.

In Mugabe’s case, it takes one to know one.

“Idiot” is the nicest thing one could say about Comrade Robert Mugabe.

Right on the money. The problem is much larger than Obama - its systemic. There will be a string of Obama's. There will be more voters getting benefits than getting shafted. This will be like a string of 50s horror movies - Revenge of the Obamanoids, Obama's wife, Return of the son of Obama, etc.

I could tell that Putin thinks that Obama is a joke, but that picture says it all. I have to show it to some people.

Thanks!

No one said it was Putin. I said I know Putin would eat him up though.

Oh my. I hadn’t seen that picture. That is too funny. Medvedev looks like he is thinking, “Yeah, yeah whatever, Jacka$$.” *snicker*

Mugabe and Obama must be identical twins separated at birth. At least their brain.

They seem to have the same understanding of economics.

“If someone had told me last year that this Country would have elected someone worse then Carter, I would have laughed. I am not laughing anymore.”
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

When you have voters who think we elected someone worse than Carter in the 2000 election you wind up with them electing someone who truly is worse than Carter. A lot of people, most of them Republicans, told me that we could do no worse than G.W. Bush, so they elected someone who makes Bush look like perfection. George Bush couldn’t have done one tenth the damage Obama is doing if he had tried with all his heart to do it. Obama is stranger than any fiction anyone could have imagined. Are we really sure he is not an alien from another galaxy?

Yup. Obama and Mugabe understand mob emotion and total control ONLY. Economics? Shhhhhh. Don’t discuss it.
