Bwanika   If what you are doing is wrong you can not make it public. You must protect it and that is the only way it can survive. A good example is Federalism our fellas are trying to sell. Although federalism will and must affect all of us, Federalist failed to make it a public issue. They knew that it was full of loop holes and it would not stand public scrutiny and the only way it could survive is by being under the umbrella. They went into their forum and censored it, they made sure that any body who they feel will put it at a fore front for a challenge, and threw him out. Lisa Toro and my self were part of the victims. Federalism in Uganda has back fired in the faces of federalists, thanks to Museveni's cunningness, not for Mulindwa or Lisa Toro. It was a bad concoction of Uganda affairs from day one and many of us saw right through it. If federalism was right, if it was done for the goodness of Uganda, it should have stood out right and centre and it should have stood the trials and tribulations of every single Ugandan. But the owners would not take that chance and in the end they have hit a wall, Museveni today is in a position where he is going to throw his own Federalism to Uganda for they, and I must insist on this, THEY the Federalists and Mengo opened this back door for him. In the same manner NRM can not open up its self to public scrutiny, that is why you see that originally they wanted elections done in public, you stand in line behind your candidate. in a way it was to threaten you if you stand behind any body with out the blessing of NRM. Ugandans called that democracy. What is very strange indeed, is that NRM is telling us that UPC is a terrible party, but UPC has called day and night for a resumption of political partys. And when you talk to its stall warts they tell you that they want to put their party to a test by putting it through a democratic election any time. What they know that we do not know one must wonder.   Em               The Mulindwas Communication Group "With Yoweri Museveni, Uganda is in anarchy"             Groupe de communication Mulindwas "avec Yoweri Museveni, l'Ouganda est dans l'anarchie" ----- Original Message ----- From: dbbwanika db To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, October 14, 2003 4:01 AM Subject: ugnet_: SV: politics & human nature If NRM come to bring clean leadership - why fear competative politics where reform agenda , dp and the catholics plus baganda become the central issue in national politics? So cabinate changes the constitution in favour of Buganda and NRM - and this is the reason why people are dying?! Why not say we have ruled 17 solid years , we have the army and we have the ability to develop, go out their and compete for politics since now you are civilised enough to do so?! If you can answer that question and have adequate answers or not- human stupidity, greed, shallowness then knows no bounds. Fighting UPC is a dead end as promoting political buganda, monolithic NRM as well covert reform agenda politics - that is the simple fact take it or live it and funny enough the constitution is dead, only can be supported by arms instead of civility. flourish democracy.
