Cde Bennie There is absolutely no reason to be defensive, this was Cde Kaizer's opinion and by the looks of things it is a true reflection of what transpired post the announcement of the Cde Beki Cele as the new Police Commissioner.
I'm completely unaware that what one needs to have a certain qualification in order to comment on issues relating to media & opposition parties.I mean yesterday was evident enough, even a scholar is able to read between the lines, oppositions comments yesterday suggested a lot. So please understand that this is a discussion forum and all communists are allowed to raise their views irrespect of their educational background, we will not limit this house only to those who were baptised by proffesors whose applying the capitalised model to educate them. Critisizm is only accepted is it's constructive, so please re-phrase your statements and apologies to Cde Kaizer Cde Tebogo Kimberley On Thu, Jul 30, 2009 at 10:07 AM, Bennie Visser <[email protected]>wrote: > > Dear Mr. Mohau > > On behalf of what organisation are you mailing? > > You seem to have a lot to say about "the media".
