1. I try to keep up with the news but this is the first I've seen about this. Sorry if duped.

2. American media whores! Mandela riddicules Bush as being a brainless cockroach; Won't even meet Bush because he so disgusted with him.

World's most respected statesman Nelson Mandela says, "Bush a president who has no foresight, who cannot think properly..."
