ANC bigwig Jessie Duarte has attacked the Democratic Alliance saying the country should not be led by neo-colonialists who looked like revolutionaries, the City Press reported on Saturday.

“Let us be careful comrades, these neo-liberals and neo-colonialists are singing and dancing like we do, but we know that in their private meetings they want to take this country backwards," the African National Congress deputy secretary-general was quoted as saying in Port Elizabeth.
"Theirs is to protect the interests of the minority.”
She was addressing a rally in the Eastern Cape earlier on Saturday.
Duarte called on party members to organise the movement in the branches and make sure it was strong and healthy ahead of next year’s general elections.

Who's this half Portuguese, Neanderthal, coconut, Jesse DUARTE, referring to?
How many times has she now had to be rescued from the political wilderness.....?
If it was not for the reckless fraud Jimmy Manje, she would still be swinging around
on branches (ANC) in some dense jungle.
She must be family of Mandela to have survived the ordeal!
Is she still driving around with her false drivers license?
In 1887 Alexander Tyler, a Scottish history professor at the
ReplyDeleteUniversity of Edinburgh, had this to say about the fall of the
Athenian Republic some 2,000 years prior: "A democracy is always
temporary in nature; it simply cannot exist as a permanent
form of government. A democracy will continue to exist up until
the time that voters discover that they can vote themselves generous
gifts from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority
always votes for the candidates who promise the most benefits from
the public treasury, with the result that every democracy will finally
collapse over loose fiscal policy, (which is) always followed by a
dictatorship.
The Obituary follows:
It doesn't hurt to read this several times.
Professor Joseph Olson of Hamline University School of Law in
St. Paul, Minnesota, points out some interesting facts concerning
the last Presidential election:
Number of States won by: Obama: 19 McCain: 29
Square miles of land won by: Obama: 580,000 McCain: 2,427,000
Population of counties won by: Obama: 127 million McCain: 143 million
Murder rate per 100,000 residents in counties won by: Obama: 13.2 McCain: 2.1
Professor Olson adds: "In aggregate, the map of the territory
McCain won was mostly the land owned by the taxpaying citizens
of the country.
Obama territory mostly encompassed those citizens living in low
income tenements and living off various forms of government
welfare..." And, of course, Zuma’s mass support comes from poor/uneducated citizens who are largely in the rural districts/living off 'child support' and State Social Pensions.
Olson believes the United States is now somewhere between the
"complacency and apathy" phase of Professor Tyler's definition of
democracy, with some forty percent of the nation's population
already having reached the "governmental dependency" phase.
If Congress/Parliament of RSA grants amnesty and citizenship to twenty million
criminal invaders called illegals - and they vote - then we can say
goodbye to the USA/RSA in fewer than five years.
If you are in favor of this, then by all means, delete this message.
If you are not, then pass this along to help everyone realize just how
much is at stake, knowing that apathy is the greatest danger to our
freedom..
This is truly scary
