Ras Dumisani, Reggae Singer, Angers South Africans After Butchering National Anthem (VIDEO)
Commented Nov 16, 2009 at 18:49:27 in World
“If the anthem is a carry-over from the apartheid government, it should be abandoned and replaced as well as the apartheid era constitution. The South African government need to abandon all elements or leftover over the past government.”

“What's the sense of making any contribution in this forum if you don't even understand the basics, coollbreezz?
Nkosi Sikelel iAfrika is the POST APARTHEID national anthem of the Republic of South Africa. Today it is performed in a medley arrangement prior to the former national anthem, Die Stem.”

“Does "Nkosi Sikelel' iAfrika" sound like a Afrikaner/Dutch song to you? Really? Do you even know the language of SA?
On a related note, do you try hard to stay uninformed or does it come naturally?”

Other folks here will correct your way-off, totally had-your-head-in-the-sand comments, but I'm just sitting here cracking up over 1) Just how little you know about the song, South Africa, or even movies about South Africa; and 2) That you would have the thought that you should comment on a story without so much as a grain's worth of knowledge...

“"If the anthem is a carry-over from the apartheid government..."
If you can't be bothered to do the most basic research or make the simplest inference (i.e. that a song whose title is in an African language is unlikely to have been the national anthem in Apartheid times), then you should abandon the practice of making pompous comments. Try learning something before trying to sound learned.
BTW - the title/first two lines of the anthem are in Xhosa, and the other verses are in SA's four other most-spoken languages - Zulu, Sesotho, Afrikaans and English.
It took less than a minute to find this out using the wonder that is the internet.”

“Let's not forget that the term "Intelligent Design" was cooked up by the extremists christians as a sneaky way to try to get religion taught in our schools. Despite the fact that "Intelligent Design" has no real science or data to back it up, these brainwashed fundamentalists insist on having impressionable children exposed to it, as if all the fairy tales they are told before bedtime are not enough. At least science has the fortitude to say when it does not know something, rather than coming up with some unfounded hokus pokus nonsense masquerading as reality.”

But it was positively embarrassing to watch him "dancing" during the opening when all the finalists were taking part in the big production number, because he couldn't find the beat, let alone keep it.
It will take a miracle worker to shape what he has to offer into a 90-minute Vegas show that people will pay to see.”

“Speechless on this one... so now if I don't agree with the Presiden't policies, I am somehow linked to apartheid and the civil war? I could care less that he's black. In fact, I think it's a testament to our nation that he got voted in, but to think that if someones opposes what he's selling is a bigot and racist is plain wrong. This kind of garbage is what's spinning this country out of control... you can't simply oppose something anymore without getting blanket statements thrown at you... very sad.”

“The White House is not in denial. President Obama has wisely chosen not to acknowledge the Race issue. The Malkin's and Hannity's of the world would love the opportunity to call him an an gry black man. Nothing scares baggers more and incites vio lence better than implying that *** is out to get you. And Faux spins it like no other.
If he steps down that path, the Republicans will grab on tight and it will be the main show for the next four years. These jabs are insidiously designed for that sole purpose.
And he's too smart to fall for it. So it's up to US to call them out.”

Even when she first started arguing with the chair, Serena pumped herself up and said.. "what are you scared of me" in what anyone would consider to be intimidating, in a passive aggressive way.
The whole incident was cut down for American audiences. What they are showing on the news internationally shows what really happened and is far worse than what we've seen in the US.”
