#4 Why should he not do it? It's been working pretty well for him so far, hasn't it?

#5 Mugabe is the poster boy for why sub-Saharan Africa is a complete and total basket case. Economically, socially, health-wise, human rights, ecologically, industrially; You name it and it's screwed like a two-bit whore, which is exactly what Mugabe is. Tribalism continues to plague our our world, be it feudal African kleptocracies or terrorist Islamic cesspits. While the former should be allowed to slip silently beneath the waves of its own accord, the latter going similarly unattended is out of the question. Islam's obsession with global domination makes it far more dangerous than the witch doctor economics of failed African states. Unlike Africa's thugocracies, Islam will have to forcibly be held beneath those same waves until the bubbles stop coming up.

#6 The Mugabe 12 Step program for National Success!

1. Find the former S. Rhodesian farmers with the most successful production...nationalize the land and give back to the former workers who stop working and now become proud squaters.

2. Find the most profitable tobacco fields, take them over, scare or kill off the previous successful operators, and give the land back to the ganja growing squaters.

3. With limited or no additional Zimbawan land owners producing, or even living in the country any longer, identify the most successful internationally owned businesses, nationalize them and drive them out of the country. Give the empty headquarters buildings and former bank buildings to squaters to live in.

4-12. These are no longer part of the Mugabe 12 step program. The first three were so successful he natioanlized the last 9.

#7 No wonder the left loves this guy... They have been talking abuot this kind of legalized theft for years, and now this guy has the means and the balls to actually do it. I bet this gives your typical liberal wet dreams...

Really how fast do you think a Pelosi or Reid would do this if they could?
