#1 Idi, I'm sure they reserved a special room down here where it is real warm.

#2 Looks like the syphillis has finally completely eaten his brain. Buh-bye, Idi.

#4 Looks like the original source (Simba Radio) has pulled the story. In the one they've got up now he's still in a coma.

Looking forward to running his obituary any time now, though...

#5 I remember when Idi was the face of modern progressive African politics. What an ass. You know, he should have exiled himself to Cuba due to that country's excellent medical care. Hey if you missed it, Armstrong made like an angel today.

#7 "hospital official told the Associated Press news agency that his condition had deteriorated"

You mean he's worse than dead? Oh, no! You mean the corpse is shuffling around, alternately gnawing on people's skulls and moaning "Brains...brains...mmmmm..."?

#8 Why'd he get so sick?

Probably someone he ate.

Idi Amin is overweight
By David Kibirige
July 22, 2003

Ms Madina Amin yesterday said that her husband is ailing because of advanced age and overweight. She said that Mr Idi Amin Dada, 80, who was yesterday still in coma, weighs about 220 kilogrammes.

âAt his age and then the fact that he is overweight there is little hope that he will fully recover. Salongo is so overweight that am sure it is part of the problem,â Madina told The Monitor yesterday as she prepared to travel to Saudi Arabia to attend her husband.

#12 ...well, don't forget that Fransisco Franco is STILL dead after 27 years. Idi's got a LONG way to go for that record.
