http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/erik-rush-wonders-if-south-africa-was-better-under-apartheidWorldNetDaily columnist and regular Fox News guest Erik Rush told his radio shows listeners last week that while he opposes apartheid, South Africa may have declined since the fall of the racist system, adding that the late Nelson Mandela didnt do much.
You know I hate to rain on the parade here, but there really isnt a whole lot to celebrate aside from this synthetic symbolism that is being made out of someone who, you know, didnt do much, Rush said. Apartheid went away, great. There are South African blacks who have told friends of mine they wish it was back because the country was safer, if you can believe that.
