NVDL: An excellent article on a tragic state of affairs. But take heart - Zuma is coming on the scene at a nexus in history. Under his domain unemployment will worsen and he will quickly become the poster child for Crime Is Not The Way. Unless he hijacks the country and holds it for ransom which, arguably, they have already achieved.
Imagine how you would react if Gordon Brown opened and closed his election rallies by bursting into a song called Bring Me My Machine Gun, swaying and jigging to the hypnotic chorus of this menacing ditty.
And how would you feel if the Prime Minister were alleged to be taking campaign money from Colonel Gaddafi; faced 783 counts of fraud, racketeering, tax evasion and corruption which somehow never came to court; and had been acquitted of rape while his fearsome supporters mobbed the courthouse?
Then ponder how you would despair if, despite all these things, Mr Brown's party was certain to win the election whatever he did or said.
If you can picture all this happening here, then you have an inkling of the horrible process South Africa is now going through. Except it is much, much worse.
Menacing: Jacob Zuma dances to what has become his signature song, Bring Me My Machine Gun!
