the commission for unconditioned equality


the following entry, by nelson madela, was not deleted from the comments section of a post entitled abandon law, all ye who enter here on the underdogs bite upwards blog (presumably because, as sir trevor phillips always said, the president just ain't black enough):

ahhh...yes...mr leg-iron...a most pertinent exposition...of an age-old problem...although...for my part...i have always tended to favour...the route of...truth...and reconciliation...by whatever means necessary...let me give you an example...
now you may be...aware...that i have recently been honoured...to receive a visit...from the good lady wife...of the president of the united states...who kindly...found a window...in her heavy shopping schedule...to pop 'round...to my humble abode...for a cup of tea...very nice too...may i say...however...it probably...has not escaped...your attention...that...the first lady...was not...accompanied...by her husband...
mmm...of course...i am sure...that there were...very pressing and...expedient...reasons...for the president's...inability...to make...the trip...but nevertheless...i wish him to know...that he should not...concern himself...unduly...for disappointing...no doubt...as his...enforced...absence...is...to us both...he may rest...absolutely...assured...that...i am not ready...to...peg-it...yet...and...i fully intend...to declare...a score...which prince philip...has...no damned chance...of passing...there-fore...i wait...in great expectation...on the...honour...of...the president's...attendance...and...being cognizant...nay...i should rather...say...sensitive...to the fact...that...he is not one...to miss...a photo-opportunity...i have...ready for him...here...behind the sofa...a traditional...donga...perhaps more familiar...to the president...as a...common...or garden...african...stick...which i'll use to beat his bony raaaassclath white american backside with if he doesn't quit flying his baaambaclath fighter-planes over mi yard t'raaaass
...excuse my...jamaican patois.

sir trevor for prime minister, methinks?
