Getting Mugabe'd is Much More Painful Than Getting Bustamante'd

Quote:
HARARE, Zimbabwe -- The trial in Zimbabwe of 70 men accused of being mercenaries plotting to oust the government of Equatorial Guinea has been postponed for a day to give lawyers more time to prepare their case.

If you can prepare to try a capital case in one additional day, you're a better lawyer than I am.*

But the true highlight of this CNN story:

Quote:
The suspects -- South Africans, Namibians, Angolans, Congolese, a Zimbabwean and a UK national -- are former members of South Africa's apartheid-era military.
Here's the picture CNN ran with the story -- the description is "The alleged mercenaries at Chikurubi prison in Harare"



I had no idea the old school Afrikaners were so color-blind.




* which you are anyway in all likelihood. No need to swing at the softball.
