Julius Malema: President on trial 'embarrassing'

[DigitalSoldier]

"When we campaign we must campaign as if there are no charges against Zuma," Malema told a crowd gathered outside the court.

"We must undermine these charges because they think that they will stop us.

Malema is an embarrassment. He should just start learning to shut up.

This guy is a first class Clown. He entertains me every time he opens his mouth!

I don't know the last time I heard such a Loon going on and on!

I wonder if he realises how the Media (and the country) are laughing at him... he probably thinks... "look at all the media exposure my speeches get!" ... and he doesn't realize it is because he is such a grand tool!

Actually he is right; it would be an embarrassment.

 

[TheHiveMind]

The government have been an embarassment for quite a while now ^_~

My name is Julius.

Yup, it's the first intelligent thing Julius has ever said, to my knowledge.

He must have meant to say something else and that accidentally slipped out.

I really don't know if it would be possible for the government to embarrass itself anymore than it already has.

We have a (possible) president to-be up on corruption charges, with the happy backing of the ruling party, this same wannabe president showers to prevent AIDS, we still have our garlic and beetroot brigade running around somewhere, happily quiet now, we just had a dep minister utter anti-semitic (racist) nonsense last week ... need I go on.

To my mind, the only intelligent thing Julius has ever done was pass up his nomination for a seat in parliament - but he would probably have to give up his ANCYL leadership if he did that. I'm sure he'd much rather just skip to ANC leader rather than take the long road.

Yes, it is an embarrassment (possible), but we can hardly let him go just because of that ... like "Hey, this could be embarrassing, so we're just going to forget you did anything - screw law and justice"

South Africa has embarrassed itself in many ways already by not taking action against Zimbabwe etc

It is more embarrassing for the fact our president goes to trial-they should not even consider him as a possible president-rather keep the current guy.

The reason she is still there is because her husband use to work in the treasury and knows of all their dark secrets.

I think a few people are missing the point. Yes it would be embarrassing to have your President on trial... however, what's shocking is not the fact that he said that, but that he said Zuma shouldn't be taken to trial simply because he is going to be President. That the President should be somehow immune to the law. That's retarded.

Fact is Zuma and Malema should be the embarrassed ones, not the people prosecuting them.

grand? tool yeah but grand?

grand? tool yeah but grand?

as in large... big!

 

[deanstein]

I think malema's 110% correct on this one! It would be extremely embarrassing for a country to prosecute their own president (to-be). THATS WHY HE SHOULDN'T BE THE PRESIDENT (TO-BE)!

So in actual fact malema's embarrassing Zuma and the whole of South Africa on behalf of himself. It takes a real clown to contrive that.

 

[OnryO]

Well he's at least got part of it right it would be embarrassing, now can someone get him to zip it.
