Zimbabwe's Robert Mugabe vows to step down if defeated


President Robert Mugabe has said he is confident of victory.

STEED! Have you talked about how he will win victory?


Quote:
Zimbabwe's President Robert Mugabe has said he will quit after 33 years in power if he loses Wednesday's election.

"If you lose you must surrender," the Zanu-PF party leader said.

His remarks came as Prime Minister Morgan Tsvangirai's Movement for Democratic Change (MDC) party accused Zanu-PF of doctoring the voters' roll.

I think that the RSA is due to have a vacancy soon for an old statesman, and Mugabe may want to rebrand his image with help from the PR men of the ANC.

My favorite big dic(tator).

Good luck Mugabe!



But honestly, I think too many politicians make the same mistake as Homer simpson, they just don't quit while their ahead. Seriously, to be a dictator, you need to dictate stuff all day long (its in the name). that's not a job I would like to do when I'm 90.

The sad fact is this joker actually believes what he says and is convinced the rest of the planet does as well
