document.write("Who the hell are the Cape Party?  But they've got a good point - very bad move appointing Boesak and his ilk.  Way too much dirty laundry for a party who's trying to be a clean alternative to the ANC!. Mark");

document.write("It just underlines how Dirty Politics is.. PeterJ");
document.write("<h5>Boesak, the Exemplary!!!!</h5>");
document.write("Previously found guilty of embessling donor funds. Imagine what he is up to next time with tax payers' hard earned money.Why is he not going back to his old profession, i.e. \"Pastor\". At least then he is limited to stealing from his own followers and not from the broad public. Oh!, sorry, forgot, he would probably have nobody to preach to, because the man of the \"cloth\" has proven himself to be unworthy to serve as a preacher, but worthy enough to serve the public of the Western Cape in COPE. Watch this leopard......!. Dr. Realist");

document.write("COPE has lost my vote...Vote DA!!. Squirt");
document.write("<h5>Coloured?</h5>");
document.write("What makes it worse though is that Cope claims it's to get the coloured vote in the Western Cape. As a coloured, I find this rather offensive because it implies that I lack moral judgement. Why would I want to put my trust in a corrup individual who has been in the doldrums for the past few years - not to mention a corrup one at that? I initially though Cope to be the better alternative to the DA and ANC, but the Boesak nomination has completely swayed my thinking. . Matthew");
document.write("<h5>For Boesak </h5>");
document.write("If you are found guilty and the system then dictates punishement, you go through it and the system forgives you...does that make you guilty for ever. I respect Boesak for taking his punishment like a man, for facing the courts etc. To suggest that JZ is better is ridiculas. Western Cape being what it is the racist whites there will what they can to discredit anybody that can realy challenge GoZille. Do not judge a person by his past. Your past does not define your future. Most Christians are aware of that principle.... For Boesak ");
document.write("<h5>For or Against...same consequence.....</h5>");
document.write("Politic's is a dirty game. However you need a certain profile to be respected, to lead people, to command financial and human resources.<br /><br />The legal system may have 'forgiven' Boesak, but his name is in the dirt. If ever in his renewed political future a contentious issue arises, his past will influence the outcome of his judgement. He compromised himself and his values. Can you be sure he won't repeat that? The risk is more funds missing, more contracts awarded to private company's that have his backing...like to ANC vs Tokyo Sexhwale situation.<br /><br />To be a politician, you shouldn't have more than a parking ticket. If you've done prison time, fine, you pay your debt, but that does not imply you can \"reintegrate\" into your old profession. Thats like taking away a GP's licence for mal practice or for killing someone through negligence, then after 5 years you grant him a permit again? Thats bulll_####.. Thinker");
document.write("<h5>boesak nomination for cape premier</h5>");
document.write("What an extremely poor choice by COPE! I am quite sure there are a myriad of others that would be may more suitable for the nomination. Most disappointed by a party that I felt had potential.. can't believe it!");
document.write("<h5>Zuma vs Boesak</h5>");
document.write("A point of order - I do not believe that Zuma was found innocent - case was thrown out of court on a technical matter.  Zuma has managed to embezzel millions, Boesak a little less - this does not make the option any more appealing - so let's go with the Iron Lady of Cape Town.  Helen's got my vote!. Oi");
document.write("<h5>To For Boesak</h5>");
document.write("I agree that one should not hold someone's past against them - however - in the bible there is nothing that says that one should practice the art of amnesia regarding peoples faults.  It says forgive - we are not instructed to forget!. Oi");
document.write("<h5>Everyone deserves a second chance</h5>");
document.write("Wake up and smell the Aroma....Boesak spilled all the beans when he divuldged that all the money he took from those funds was used by the Party that deserted and threw him away!!! He said he was not alone and it was not his decision alone! Please Leave Boesie-Bosie Alone maan....He is far much better than Msho. Credentials, etc etc. Let him get a fresh start or  A Makeover of Boesak....Everyone deserves a second chance especially if they come clean and repent from their sins!!!!I am not a Cope member nor Supporter.
