Rawlings, Your Problem Is Sickness

"A foolish man seeks happiness in the distance, a wise man grows it under his feet"-James Oppenheim

The obese lunatic of Sogakope is retrograding physically and emotionally with symptoms of atrophying brains, and the earlier his family consign him to a Psychiatry ward, the better it will be for him and the nation as a whole. This man called Rawlings has no respect for any Ghanaian and I wonder where he got his superiority complex from. Is it because he has a drunk Scot blood running through his veins? Who made this "O"level graduade the overlord of Ghana?

The leading news item on Ghanaweb on October 21st 2010 has the heading; I have a problem with President Mills-JJ.

John Jerry Rawlings, that is not news, you have problems with everybody. In your demented brains, you are the only moral being that is walking on the face of the earth despite slaughtering women and children in your armed robbery you masqueraded as a revolution in 1982. You have perfected the act of prevarication as a profession and reaping the benefit of it by constantly hammering at anybody in power who has the cojones not to subjugate himself or herself under your tutelage. YES, YOU HAVE A PROBLEM, YOU ARE SICK.

What was Rawlings complaining about this time? Rawlings wants Mills to investigate what he perceives to be electoral fraud.

"Former President Rawlings chastised the Mills-led NDC government of failing to investigate the "electoral fraud that saw the stuffing and replacement of ballot boxes in the last election."

Rawlings, why don't you contact the Electoral Commissioner if you have any evidence of ballot stuffing and let his office conduct the investigation instead of subtly campaigning for your wife's Presidential ambition by making President Mills unpopular with your unfounded accusations? You always have evidence to crimes in Ghana but as a citizen, when you are called upon to provide empirical evidence to crimes that exist only in your head, you have been found wanting.

My indignation about your proplixity about moral mandate of the people might be ineffable to express in the forum. You don't have the moral highground to talk about morality. How can a dictator and kleptomaniac who abused the human rights of Ghanaians mount a podium and start pontificating and sermonizing like the Pope?

You want President Mills to correct or punish NPP's politization, tribalism and victimization especially in the security services. Mr Rawlings, who do you take Ghanaians for? How can you talk about tribalism when you are the apostle of BIGOTRY?

Are you not the one who gave Kofi Awonoor Williams the reason why you staged your coup? You said the purpose of your so called revolution was to take away the political and economic hegemony perpetrated by the Akans particularly the Ashantis. Is that not the epitome of tribalism?

Are you not the one that said Asantis didn't heed to your family planning policies because they wanted to breed like rats to vote your NDC out of power?

Are you not the one that stood in a podium in Cape Coast and said 'even cats are cleaner than Fantes'?

Rawlings, most Ghanaians are tired of your logorrhea, sophomoric vituperations and spastic rantings, ENOUGH IS ENOUGH, seek help for your problems because it can't be that everybody is wrong and you are the only person who is right.
