Mandela freed the slaves in Africa? Who knew?

[duckman]

Looks like this is the news cycle for the next week. Last night on the Factor, O’Reilly said Mandela was a communist. Why are we celebrating a commie?

[Mr. K]

At the death of any liberal icon you can count on the idiocy to flow like water

Maybe he will get the “Heath Ledger” treatment and get fawned all over for months

[DeaconRed]

"At the death of any liberal icon you can count on the idiocy to flow like water."

Is it ever flowing. . . . . Without even an ounce of truth. . . .

[fieldmarshaldj]

Hey, why not go whole hog and call him the Second Coming ?

[Caipirabob]

He has another legacy people don't talk about:

Hell on wheels...

[Tai_Chung]

I heard that the flag at the White House was flying at half-staff in honor on Nelson Mandela.

Why lower the US flag for a foreigner?

Is there any regulation on who should be given that honor?

[RetiredArmy]

He was a communist. Yet, now he is a super hero of the world for bringing a stinking soccer tournament to the country. Big freaking deal.

Bottom line; S. Africa was once a thriving country. Now it’s a basket case, rapes, and murders of white folks going through the roof

[Junk Silver]

I’ve never considered Don Imus to be a great political commentator, but he had a great observation this morning:

“Nelson Mandela is a leader who Barack Obama should try to emulate. He could start by spending 27 years in prison.”

[FrdmLvr]

Yahoo had a graphic of Mandela with the caption “Africa’s Father”. WTF?????

[LeonardFMason]

EXACTLY.

SA is one of the most dangerous places on earth. Especially if you are white. That is a fact beyond dispute.

[WayneS]

That is his former wife’s legacy, not his.

Nelson Mandela: Africa's Ayers (Makes more since)

[WayneS]

President Eisenhower issued a proclamation which set "official" procedures for flying flag at half-mast on March 1, 1954. It includes the following:

The president may order the flag to be flown at half-staff to mark the death of other officials, former officials, or foreign dignitaries. In addition to these occasions, the president may order half-staff display of the flag after other tragic events.

Nelson Mandela: Africa's Lincoln (He's serious)

Funny how if you're black, when you die your whole life story gets re-written to fit the narrative, overlooking the criminal activities you took part in and the misdeeds you perpetrated. Just wait, when 0bama's dead, he will be praised as a "Great Leader" {mega barf!]

[wku man]

Oh...I didn't know Lincoln was a Communist with a murdering terrorist for a wife.

Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!
