I'm done talking to you *******s. It's your type of mentalility that gave South Africa to the ANC. I don't have to be right wing to see the ANC for what it is. But your blinded senses and coloured glasses won't see that.

yay! Now we don't have to listen to anymore of your moaning and bitching :p
 
Good Life its too late to complain, the millions of poor blacks are the majority and if they want to flush the country down the toilet as majority they have that democratic right. Your forefathers should have wiped them out when they had the chance like the Native Americans and Australian Aborigines if you didn't want the blacks to regain power. Unfortunately the ANC has the right to be in power albeit because the majority in this country is stupid. Us educated, intelligent few can do nothing except what we are already doing to keep the ANC on it's toes.
 
The ANC state that they do not intend to change the Constitution. Although this is probably true is smacks to me of not telling the full story which is what all politicians are so famous for. At the moment there might be nothing on the open agenda to change, except for the 17th Amendment (Yes, search the internet for this Amendment), but a Constitution is something that needs to evolve as the nation moves through time, so it will always be open to changes and challenges so stating you are never or are not going to change it, is technically incorrect.

I feel happier that the ANC do not have this 2/3 hold over the Constitution although I am pretty sure they can drum up support from one or more of the smaller parties if they need it. Just 3 seats BTW.
In the last year the ANC pushed through the changes in regards to the Scorpions which is short sighted as if they really had some problems in the way that this Unit operated they could have dealt with it internally as they are after all, The Government.

What they say and do is totally different, but like you said, no 2/3rds but the ANC will find a way to get the seats they need. Throwing money at other parties is easy for them.

what with these bloody 1%ers they could easily absorb their votes. It's not like it's that difficult. The problem with an opposition like ours is that it needs to be 100% together or the ANC wins all the time. Sad actually...

Yep, If the anc could get martinus van skalkwyk to join their ranks what would stop them for assimilating all the other random parties.


The oposition needs to rally under one banner
 
APC(1 seat) and AZAPO(1 seat) will in all probability vote with the ANC.
Last night the APC leader said on national TV that he is not keen on joinig forces with the opposition parties that exist with the sole purpose of howling at the ANC. It made me think, that guy was openly flirting with the ANC :D
AZAPO leader had a cabinet position before, if the ANC gives him the same position they would have secured his vote as well...
