Africa-Press – Lesotho. A politician is someone who can promise to build a bridge where there is no river. When villagers point out that there is no river the politician will dig a river so that they can build a bridge.
Then they will come back to the people, with a straight face, and claim to have built the bridge they promised. This is exactly what our politicians are doing about the reforms fiasco.
They are scrambling around for solutions to a problem they created. You hear them on radio stations waffling about clauses of the constitution that allows His Majesty to recall parliament so that they can pass the reforms.
Some of them have suddenly become experts in constitutional law. Nyoe, nyoe we can use the State of Emergency clause in the constitution to recall parliament.
Blah, blah, the Bill had already partially been passed and we only have to go back to finish it up. They are not telling us that this mountain of manure is of their making.
It is them who manufactured this mess. You can be sure that they will want us to ululate for them when they eventually pass the reforms Bill. Taking credit for solving the chaos they created.
Of course, some people will pat them on their backs and hail them as heroes. But those who know better will remain disgusted by the shame these good-for-nothing indolent freeloaders have brought onto this nation.
Muckraker is not only appalled but itching to clobber a politician. Most of our MPs are spoiled brats who lack a beating. Muckraker is not violent but there are times when a little bit of spanking is for the greater good. Muckraker is not saying we should beat politicians. No. She is just saying beat the silliness out of their thick heads. It’s for their own good.
