South Africa was another ally we turned our back on, much as we are about to do with Israel. It has fallen into disrepair and anarchy. When will we figure out that when we drop support of friendly governments to favor insurgents, it never ends well for us.

One shining example of our stupidity is how “well” Iran has been running since we dropped our support of the Shah. That was a great success story, was it now?

I’m confused, is “we” the President or the CIA?

It’s seems like they both conduct foreign policy to me.(independent of one another at times too)

I believe the bigger irony is that it’s supposed to be our Congress doing such, no?

Oh well, who cares. That “no entangling alliances” stuff was for the birds anyway. All the intervention & “support” seems to be going well.

He was a die hard Marxist, supported the USSR. FITS – he believed in big gubment, wanted the state to confiscate and reallocate the means of capitalism.

Mandela should have been shot years ago. Communist, terrorist, immoral, thug. Yet we tremble that someone would dare examine his murderous legacy. Yeah, what a great guy.

Just looking at that picture, and imagining you’re in Columbia – you can’t tell whether he’s going to trial for crack, or reporting for parole.

Mandela – I swear to God, he looks *just* like a black man!

Nelson Mandela, in his younger days, was a charismatic, communist terrorist. After he gained power, he could have easily turned into a Mugabe or Mao or Pol Pot,; but he did not. TBG believes he had good intentions and agrees that his opposition to apartheid was a noble cause. TBG fears that with his passing, things in South Africa are going to get real bad, real quick.

It’s nice to see there’s someone on here who agrees with the Mandela forms of punishment. Oppose me and we’ll blow up city buses, oppose me and I’ll kill you by placing a gasoline soaked tire around your torso and lighting it on fire, oppose me and your family will disappear. Fuck Mandela and fuck Barrack Husain Obama.

Does it take a Republican to call Mandela what he was? Communist, murdering, bombing, anti-American, thug.

Too bad FITS is considered irrelevant. OR maybe we could have that POS arrested and kick his @$$ out of our country.

Let the B#$*@rd go to a country more an a level of his character, respect and intelligence, and he can take his lord Obama with him….

WE NEED to elect REAL Christians in 2014!! I think the time is right for some REAL CHANGE!! Muslims, Liberals, and the racist Illumanti need to zip it, because you can only serve the one, right God.

I don’t argue with Liberals, but I will say, “If you like your president, you can keep your president!” Lol…I just want both the House and Senate for 2014. After that, people will forget all about that Liberal murderer.
