Black liberal journalists an embarrassment

I am incensed by people like Justice Malala, Mondli Makhanya and Xolela Mangcu, the self-proclaimed intellectuals.

These men have made it their business to oppose everything that our president does. And they show no respect for the president's office.

This new breed of neo-liberal blacks, who have been fed the notion that blacks can't lead, are a disappointment.

Makhanya is a puppet of racist whites who are hellbent on tarnishing the image of the president.

Malala is a doomster who has a personal gripe against President Thabo Mbeki. I was shocked when I read his uninformative little column that compared Black Wednesday to the current situation. Malala must give us the names of editors and journalists who have been arrested by our ANC government. The man is clearly a failed journalist.

As for Mangcu, Tokyo Sexwale's chief imbongi, the less said about him the better. He has clearly lost his marbles and is on a path of self- destruction. He has become a danger to himself with his hallucinations.

Who does he think he is, writing letters to Nelson Mandela and complaining about Mbeki?

He wants to destroy Mbeki so badly that he is trying to drive a wedge between Mbeki and Mandela.

Let's help Mangcu to stop embarrassing himself.
