...Until a few years down the road, and they, too decide to purge the White Devil®.
I agreed with African American Studies Professor Clarence Munford, but for entirely different reasons, when Munford said: “There is NO REASON for white men to be in Africa”.

Well, you can look at Cuba and the norks, despite their power to the people rhetoric they’ve managed to carve out hereditary sinecures for themselves and their friends... but nevertheless, the interregnum is the best bet for trying to force a change.

If China turns Zimbabwe into anything close to itself, it’ll be a huge success for Zimbabweans.

No, I sure it is still reasonable to send him your bank account information. :-)

if Catholicism is correct, Mugabe will get to heaven after going through Purgatory Catholicism also teaches that there is Hell. Mugabe could go either way, depending upon his disposition at the time of his death.

Unprecedented? A dictator stepping down? Maybe not this first time. Obama, the Dictator, stepped down.

Mugabe is still a great example of "success".... after all, he is a bazillionaire many times over..... he can paper his walls with hundred trillion dollar notes....

Sure, the Crocodile will have a peaceful transition. Provided you had nothing to do with the attempt to push him out and make Mrs. Mugabe the new President. For those who did, it will be a piece-full transition.

Any you may not even have been talking about decisions, but results.I would use it as part of a discussion concerning deontology vs. consequentialism; Tillman wanted to be ethical regardless of the consequences, Mugabe wanted good (for him) consequences regardless of the broken principles.

Exactly. Will all men be equal in this former British Crown Colony or will some be more equal than others?
Still there is a sweeping tide going all over the world flushing out dictators. May it continue until all men are free of tyranny.

Is that a huge turd (below the cow outline on the right)?No, it is evidence that the pre-white culture of the area was advanced enough to be able to stack rocks and chip them away to make 'birds'. Stare at it until you see the bird.
