Cdes Lets not be distracted by Zille's insult to the President the real issue is empowerment of women and black people. Yes she is the most racist person in SA and she has demonstrated that what would happen if a miracle happens in Billion years and she is SA President. Her appointment of all White male MEC's has just given us a great start for the 2011 Local Gov elections. Lets Cdes intensify the fight for inclusion of Women and Black People in her cabinet, they don't have to come from our MDM structures but in her DA and that will prove her wrong and we will retain the WC in 2011

She hates the president so much that she even instead of campaigning for her party, she did an anti-Zuma campaign, that is why she lost the battle. She ran out of option now, that is why she is doing this, she is insane.
