I was raised to not say anything if I have nothing nice to say...later amended following a short waiting period in the case of folks passing along.
No waiting period necessary for communists.
Thanks for the dispensation, but IMO enough time has now passed...
He was a COMMIE!
Why should we feel better about this guy? Because he was black? Because he was imprisoned by white racists? Because even though he was a Commie he wasn't as brutal or murderous than Stalin or Mao?
The non-stop "ohh, wasn't Mandela so awesome" media orgy is fricken really old now! Put it to rest, bury the guy and be done with it!
And Obama once again proves what an utter selfish asshole he is by ordering flags lowered for this jackass when Lady Thatcher who was a much more important ally of the US than Mandela would ever hope to be got snubbed...but I would have at least been consistent and not ordered the lowering for Mandela...nut no, punk-ass Obama has to play favorites.
And yeah, Pab's...I'm right there with ya! But you know what? When that asshole has his ticket punched...the Mandela media orgy will pale in comparison to the first black national socialist's send off!
I'm already feeling the bile rise in my throat!
When that day comes though, I'll be partying Palestinian-style!
