“Sleeping Around” means…
I’ve just listened to Redi Direko interview Floyd Shivambu, spokesman for the ANC Youth League, about his outrageous statement that Helen Zille sleeps around with her male cabinet colleagues.
Zille has appointed an all male cabinet of useless people, majority of
whom are her boyfriends and concubines so that she can continue to
sleep around with them, yet she claims to have the moral authority to
question our President.
When asked what he meant by Zille “sleeping around” with her male colleagues, he explained: ‘”Sleeping around” means sleeping around’. Further questioning revealed that the ANCYL interpreted the phrase “sleeping around” to mean “sleeping around”. And they stand by that.
Floyd is our very own Humpty Dumpty, only with less imagination:
“When I use a word,” Humpty Dumpty said, in a rather scornful tone, “it
means just what I choose it to mean – neither more nor less.”“The question is,” said Alice, “whether you can make words mean so many
different things.”“The question is,” said Humpty Dumpty, “which is to be master – that’s all.”
Through the Looking Glass.
And then he told Redi to stop being childish. So there!
So just when you thought these cretins couldn’t get more idiotic, they think they can say anything at all with impunity since their words mean exactly what they want them to mean, nothing more, nothing less. As Floydie shouts: “We say what we mean, and we mean what we say”. If you know what he means. Which means what it means. I mean!
So they can make the following slanderous statement, without fear of being sued since they are just words uttered by a buffoon whose words bear no relation to what the rest of the world would understand them to mean:
If the fake racist girl Zille continues to speak hogwash like she has
been doing during elections, we will take militant action against her,
and demonstrate to her that she does not have monopoly over the Western
Cape. The fake racist girl who was dropped on a head as child should
understand that South Africa will never be a Mickey-mouse Republic like
she wants to portray it.
On reading Zille’s full statement, it is apparent that she is being entirely factual when she says:
The ANC, in all its 90 years of existence, has never elected (or
deployed) a woman as its leader. The DA has done so within the first
ten years of its existence. In fact, until recently, both the DA’s
national leader and Parliamentary leader were women.The ANC’s alliance partners, the SACP and COSATU, are also led by
men. And, more significantly, the ANC’s leader, Jacob Zuma, is a
self-confessed womanizer with deeply sexist views, who put all his
wives at risk by having unprotected sex with an HIV-positive woman.
Even after this the ANC women’s league strongly endorsed his
Presidential campaign. Their professions of support for women’s rights
ring hollow indeed against this background.
Unfortunately, lobbing this sort of hand grenade into the political fray is not going to win any battles – let alone a war. The ANC and its allies have self-servingly latched onto this and have literally declared war on Auntie Helen. Floydie baby threatens “militant action”. Now ANC Secretary General Gwede Mantashe wades in with:
“You can see that this name Jacob Zuma or ANC is working on her nerves and
she has elevated her role from that of opposition to that of the
enemy,” Mantashe proclaimed emphatically.
Wonderful. This is no longer a schoolyard spat. It’s more like the new style of schoolyard spat leaving a kid clutching a gaping knife wound in his neck. Over a sandwich.
This is dangerous talk, kids.
