SEXUAL POLITICS

Amazing.Confusing.

Africa is truly a strange place.We live in Johannesburg, South Africa.The main venue of the 2010 Soccer World Cup.We live in a highly sophisticated hi-tech country with roads, technology and a constitution that many so-called first world countries would be jealous of.

But like our own vanilla veneer, there is political spice and concoctions that are unique to Africa.

Peter Robinson, the Prime Minister of Northern Ireland stepped down of office because his wife (not him), Iris (also a politician)admitted to having an affair with a 19 year old young man.She also allegedly procured an investment from developers to help him set up a cafe'. Naughty, naughty!!Scandal, scandal!!

Poor Clinton narrowly escaped an impeachment due to a few white stains on Monica's dress. Naughty, naughty!! Scandal, scandal!!

In Africa however, things work back to front.Things are much simpler here.We can not understand why Robinson does not have a word with our President, Jacob Zuma (aka Jake the Snake).

In our democracy, which is truly a democracy-no vote rigging or intimidation like elsewhere in Africa-the story goes like this:

Vice President Zuma, is cash strapped. A businessman by the name of Shabir Shaik donates him vast amounts of money in return of dubious and lucrative Defence Force contracts.Shaik gets convicted on charges of corruption pertaining to Zuma and is sent to jail for 15 years.

In the meantime Zuma's first wife commits suicide and leaves a note stating that she could no longer endure Zuma's ways.

His second wife (now Minister of Foreign Affairs)divorces him.No problem.

Zuma has 19 children from his 5 wives and several girlfriends.He also has a fiancee.

The serious corruption charges against him were withdrawn when his faction appointed a new public prosecutor.He was also "acquitted" ,it appears quite rightly so, on a rape charge of a woman.He stated that the unprotected sex was consensual. She is a well known AIDS activist being HIV positive herself.He testified in court that he had a shower after the sex act to protect himself of the deadly virus.

The corrupt Shabir Shaik was released from prison on humanitarian grounds as he was terminally ill and busy dying.He now plays golf and is very much alive.

The larger majority of South Africans, despite the above, voted for Zuma as our President.

At least half of them were women.The President now no longer have financial problems and we have several first wives. Another was added in December.

The lesson for Peter Robinson is "Don't resign mate!Fuck a few girls, raid the fiscus and the Irish will understand and vote you in again. Don't be such a whimp!"
