    Judging from the grammar/typos, my best "guestimate" at the author is Julius....

    The Bizarre laced with very serious underlying issues. This is Tragi-comedy like only SA can provide.

    Spelling errors on something distributed at a middleburg school.
    Debates on whether the target audience will believe it vs. comments like "uneducated does not mean stupid"

    What's up with that weird logo under the header. It looks like torch bearers and a tank. It almost sounds communist, but written by conservative afrikaners!?

    And the way the end...trails...off...as if the author loses focus while typing.

    Some of the comments underneath the articles are brilliant. Some are as ridiculous as the pamphlet itself. I love it.

    I agree. But it's exactly that type of condonement and token action that is becoming the battle ground. Their credibility has got to be getting a bit brittle. I'm seeing even stalwart supporters starting to scratch their heads as scandal after scandal comes up.

    I think you right. You can only push so far and hard before the wake up calls start occurring. Heard this morning that another member has bailed over to cope.

    Now let me think, what is thats wrong with these pics or why is that i get so irate when i see them.... hmmm let me think...?? First one not so clear but thats a full poster pasted on the back window of the car. Covers about 2 3rds of the window

    OH YES - I HAVE IT! They're illegal, now if i had done that they would have fined R1000 per poster and within 3 days. There are 12 alone at this intersection. At the very least removed within 2 days. The opposition parties DA etc have theres in legal positions ie light post ads. great forwarding planning on there part, looks like these got in a little late

    The ruling party make the rules - they don't have to follow them

    On the poster front, it all seems to be DA (had theirs up first) and ANC in my neck of the woods. Haven't seen anything of COPE or anyone else yet.

    Same here now that you mention it. DA and ANC, i think i did see a IFP, but not certain on that - it disappeared quite quickly
