Today\’s Quote Of The Day goes to robert mugabe, the “elected” (by one way or another) President of Zimbabwe: a formerly prosperous country that exported food to other nations, but now – after years of race-based cronyism which resulted in productive famland being handed to people based on their skin color rather than anty ability to farm it, has become a beggar nation, reliant on the productivity of others, which can\’t even feed its own people, let alone anyone else\’s.
Yesterday, while at an event in South Africa, mugabe approached a group of journalists. Upon noting that they were of mixed races, he turned around and walked away, saying (this was caught on audio tape):
“I don\’t want to see a white man”
I award robert mugabe Quote Of The Day honors for proving, again, that racism is an equal opportunity employerl; that no group has any monopoly on it.
Let me end with a question for mugabe: The latest data I have seen, from 2012, show that your country received aid totaling about $152,000,000 US – 11% of your entire gross national income. And the single greatest contributor was the “White” USA.
Did you turn down the money?
I didn\’t think so.
