Rather Fight Crime than Progress!
April 10, 2010 by Georgelj28
I read with both dismay and disgust the article and photographs in our local giveaway newsletter of residents of Magaliessig suburb demonstrating against Makro opening up a branch in Fourways. Why did they not stop the building of the new hotels in that area!
Magalissig is not even near the site of the proposed Makro. The dismay and disgust stems from the fact that White farmers and ordinary citizens are being murdered and raped on their farms and in their homes respectively and these citizens do absolutely nothing about that.
But when a company wants to create business opportunities and jobs in our residential area -- apart from the major conveniemce of not having to travel very far for the local residents for wholesale shopping -- Makro is castigated and "toy-toyed" against. Let me add that I am in no way associated with Makro other than that I shop at their Woodmead branch.
I would much prefer to see that same energy and commitment given to stopping crime in our area! I know that Lonehill is a safe place to live being voted the safest suburb in South Africa last year but the Magaliessig refuses to join the security initiaive in the area. is it going to be a case of "United we stand and United we fall"?
I propose that the thinking and caring citizens of this country start a legal fund to take the likes of Julius Malema and all those other corrupt politicians to Court and to sue them in their own personal capacities to return any tax-payer's money that has been misappropriated.

Can the Congress Of the People bring change
December 13, 2008 by evl
The more I read and here about the Congress of the People the more I think they might actually get somewhere. The only thing that stops me from supporting them is that they were part of the most corrupt political party on the face of the planet and i think they might just be after power and status.
I might be wrong and I hope I am wrong because this country needs a break from the ANC.
I think we'll just have to wait and see what their views are on BEE and AA as well as crime and other things that matter. They gave their policies out but that's just to long to read.
Anyway. We'll see as time goes by if they can actually bring change that is much needed from the corrupt ANC

Yeah right as if I am some kind of political blogger. Come to think of it, I am.
I really need to update the 2009 general elections page but for the sake of time I will write it all here. Or maybe not. Head on over to General elections
The new political party is The South African Democratic Congress

The new party was decided to be called the SADC or South African DemocraticNicolas Sarkozy suing over voodoo dolls
October 26, 2008 by Daizy
This is one of the best political statements I have seen in a long time. Forget about picketing, wich president pays any attention too protestors leave that to the law enforcement. I have no idea what goes on with French politics I watched the election when this guy was elected in but did not concentrate much. So here is Nicolas Sarkozy suing the manufacturer of these voodoo dolls with his head attached to it. Normally I would say they where crossing the line but then I checked out the doll. The doll is marked of in parts that so percentages with the his slogan as one part and quotes he has made for example "work more to earn more" and another "get lost jerk" obviously it has been translated from french. This way it was more of an statement against his policies and behaviour rather than a attack on his person.
Now here is something interesting for Wordpress fans

With all the political chaos going on we can take our focus of that for a moment and focus on our favourite cms called Wordpress. I think most of the internet probably runs on Wordpress.
I have always wondered how to display the posts we did of the day, meaning the number of posts and thanks to Wprecipes we now have the answer. Please head on over there and check it out.
Promises, promises and Zuma
October 22, 2008 by evl
Yes, you and your breakaway party had so many years to completely mess up the country, and well done you did. Now get of the stage and go dance somewhere else.
Zuma now comes with promises, the famous ANC move to promise the world so a few elite can sit their fat asses and laugh while the rest of the country goes down like a drunken submarine. This time Zuma is promising tough and decisive response to the shit happening in South Africa they would so lightly call crime.
Yes I smell the general election coming so be ready to hear of millions of houses and jobs that will be created. Be ready to hear how they will screw the white man for the next 14 years in order to give back to the blacks what they never had in the first place.
This political situation we found ourselves in South Africa has another name. Its called CHAOS. Sure I dont know that much about politics but I sure do know that we will see a bunch of upgrading promises to the millions of waiting people, they have been waiting for 14 years and I bet you will find them just voting again in their blind stupidity.
