This country has never been in worse shape, even under the hated control of the equally disgusting Nats!

....

We have never had it so bad, and even those who normally claim - falsely, of course - that I "hate" their president would be hard-pressed to deny this self-evident truth. And I am not lamenting the demise of the past order when I say, as I do here, that even under apartheid things overall were not as bad as this.

Politically correct "logic" will claim that I am not being truthful but, believe me, lots of people out there are saying apartheid was "much better compared to what we are going through right now".

But what do you say about the restive state of our judiciary? And what confidence will a visitor to this country have in the policing of our communities, when the law enforcement officers themselves go out to break the laws with impunity?

There are those in this land who brag that they are building "world-class" facilities and institutions, but where in the world is a commissioner of police on trial for graft - and the head of state renews his employment contract regardless?

The solution to all this mess, methinks, is in a new order altogether. And yes, I have heard your condemnations loud and clear: I will be voting next year, and I will also encourage a whole lot of other people to do the same.

As I have said before, the men and women with the bombs may have been good liberators, but hard experience convinces me that they are not necessarily good governors.

Not what I'm used to hearing from the guy.

Who are you and what did you do with Johnny Q?

I read this columns, much against my better judgement and usually cringe and swear all the way though, I almost feel robbed!
 
Do you guys not see through this? It is a case of drumming up support for Zuma, the new order of South Africa. Why do you think he mentions voting at the crux of the article? It has to do with voting for Zuma...

That's the way I read it as well.

Maybe but wouldn't this exclude Zuma:
