Mugabe lays down the law

Good news:

Zimbabwe’s President Robert Mugabe was quoted on Sunday as saying he would be willing to hand power to a ruling party ally when he’s sure the country is safe from “sellouts” and from British interference.

If that isn’t a demand for Metallica to get out of Zimbabwe, I don’t know what is.

    I gathered Mugabe was referring to the most recent addition to news.com.au’s sty stable of bloggers, Tim Blair.

    i wonder if the price of selling out is rising with the inflation over there?

    When the fuck is the new Metallica album coming out? It was meant to be April.

    I hear, in answer to my prayers it’s due about the twelfth of never, Chuck.

    I think they are too busy finding themselves fascinating, Keri.

    I’ll send them a mirror Express Post.

    That should delay it by another year with any luck.

    I see some ding-bat cocky comparing Kevin Rudd to Robert Mugabe today.
    OK, we’ll treat you like the Zimbabwean government treats THEIR farmers then shall we?

    Round you up and shoot you.

    If you’re going to squawk the squawk you might as well earn it eh?

    Hey Krypto, you know the reason why Telstra is getting privatised?

    To nationalise the Aussie family farms. Don’t say i didn’t warn you!

    well I’ve never supported privatisation of public resources so don’t lay the blame at my door for that.

    I’m sceptical about state run farms too, you know the Russians never had a famine until they drove the peasants out and replaced them with state run farms.

    Mugabe looked so made I thought his Philtrim sliver was going to slide off his face.

    Time to reform the League of Nations, dig up our cache of weapons, build a stockade, burn our crop stockpiles, shoot our boongs and save Orstraya!
