Heita, BD! (Black Diamond) Sharp, BD. Hey, I bet you are a dealmaker. See this? Top international whisky Chivas Regal is on the verge of becoming preferred whisky supplier of choice to the ANC - and its youth league. A spokeswoman for the public relations company for Chivas, who refused to be identified, told the Saturday Star yesterday that is was simply a business deal.   "They are drinking whisky and Chivas wants to be the whisky that they drink - instead of the opposition, Johnnie Walker."   "If the deal is concluded, the ANC will still have to buy the whisky, just like everyone else," the publicist said.   A source, meanwhile, said that after Kodwa's party, Chivas had approached Luthuli House to suggest that the distiller and the governing party enter into a marketing deal.   "The deal will entail the (governing) party buying the whisky at discounted prices at its functions and allowing Chivas to raise their marketing stands at ANC functions and rallies," the source said. Eish, BD. VC Samson Zondi wrote: VC "Black Diamond" lol, I had that name from Cde Blade Nzimande himself when he was addressing the YCL rally in 2008 eMlazi stadium.

He chooses to rely more on gossip mongering and conspiratorial thinking such as that the so-called "...resource-hungry comrades..." have daggers against Cde Mantashe because he is apparently perceived to be blocking them from enjoying the spoils of the Zuma-led administration. What a funny and baseless accusation typical of neo-liberal media-constructed line of reasoning? I think the comrade must equally tell or give us more facts or the specifics of this baseless accusation. Failure to do so will be tantamount to admitting that the comrade is just purely jealous about Comrade Malema''s and his collective's achievements thus far or is extending or attributing his own ambitions to Comrade Killerman. His obsession with rubbishing the YL president blinds him from seeing the visibly fact that the Comrade Malema was accompanying Gauteng education department's officials who anyway were conducting 'routine' school visits. Why do you then single out Cde Malema from the whole delegation? Do you know something that some of us at the grass root level do not know about? Is hatred for Malema too intense that you risk your 'political maturity' by choosing to create and perpetuate half-baked conspiracy theories? Why do think its only Comrade Gwede that deserves to be defended and that Malema must be attacked as you do? I hope comrades will transcend beyong emotions and have mercy on the YL President. After all we are diamonds that are currently being polished which means getting dirty does not mean we must be thrown away, because once the polishing process is concluded we will come out to be one of the best diamonds (eg. Lembede, Mandela, Mokaba, Gigaba, Mbalula and the current brand of diamonds). Phansi Ngabathakathi and Hands Off YL President Hands Off T.S.
