Political Conjugations Sat Dec 20, 2025 07:00 | James Alexander
Everyone assumes that words have straightforward meanings. Philosophers because they want them to and politicians because they need them to. But the first law of politics is that words are ambiguous, says James Alexander.

Not well known Dublin criminal families hiding each others heads in the freezer and giving people crabs left, right and centre. Soon enough we won't have the constant leaks and reminders. They are so quickly becoming faint squeeks aren't they? Are we prepared to live without the constant threat? Not like all of us in general but you know "the constituency". Idi Amin always knew his constituency all the same. So does Forest Whitaker as well. You didn't see a cravatte in that movie did you? Nope. That's revisionism that is. Should be careful of that.
security! locks on doors! squawk! files! split level homes! squawk!
The French leftwing newspaper "Liberation" (owned my mate Baron Rothschild) have located the President Elect of France after he was sneaked out of France late yesterday evening aboard a Falcon 900ex private jet belonging to billionaire Vincent Bollere. He then had supper with his friend billionaire
Dominique Desseigne at the Desseigne family palace in Malta and is now Nicolas Sarkozy "president of the people" is currently aboard a 60 meter yacht Paloma owned by Vincent Bolleré [worth 1.2 (billion)] it was last sighted in Maltese waters but the Italian agency ASTI reports permission was requested to enter Italian waters in the area of Sicily (traditional home to the mafia). The yacht has previously been hired through a London agency for prices ranging from 147,000 to 160,000eu. Sarko the peoples' president is enjoying a holiday of average 6,000eu cost per hour. We don not know yet how he will return to Paris this evening.
Tomorrow he will attend an event in Paris to commemorate the end of Slavery.
& has sent his apologies for missing a commemoration of the Armistice yesterday at the Arc de Triomphe in Paris with Chirac.
The French look forward to their Assembly elections from June 10th to June 17th
which will be just about one month after Sarko starts work "for all the French".

"jogging under protection in Malta" - missed public ceremony yesterday. 6,000eu an hour hols.
In which he criticises Al Qaeda and the Salafia network for their un-professional atttitude and muses that he never took pleasure from the suffering of his victims or opponents. Quite. Indeed. Gurgle. He just did it for the money. And an awful lot of money it was too. Incidently the man in the photo above who excused himself from the French armistice celebrations to spend time on a yacht belonging to a billionaire (coz I and others accidently and without intention put out the imminent assassination R-e-d A-l-e-r-t)* did attend the Bastille day celebrations yesterday and even found time to shake hands with ordinary common French people. You'll be glad & no doubt proud to know that small contigent of Irish troops were sent by the minister of defence Mr "9mm" willy O Dea at the suggestion of President Sarko. This is part of his new "France at the heart of Europe agenda" which will of course help us forgeth the "France at the heart of Europe strategy" of his predecessors. All 22 of them.... And your man Napoleon.

* I do actually get into trouble for shite like that.
"Oh dear me"
Hugo Chavez the motormouth of the left has just given a speech in which he listed people who are wrongly described as bad guys . He began with Carlos the Jackal arguing he had been falsely imprisoned & then went on a general pro-Palestinian curve to include the living leaders of Zimbabwe and Iran respectively : Mugabe and Ahmadinejad. Then he went completely overboard and suggested that Idi Amin has been misunderstood by history.
"We thought he was a cannibal... I don't know, maybe he was a great nationalist, a patriot."
Idi Amin being of course the man who kept his enemies heads in a freezer in his palace because he couldn't eat them quickly enough. Super-ironically one of his many wives would later be prosecuted for breaching health and safety regulations on a restaurant she ran in London.
Hugo seems to have no idea of how tenous his position as a "good guy" can seem when he goes off on these sessions of his.
We know he likes Ahmadinejad
We mostly can't understand why he likes Mugabe
We have known for a long time he writes letters to Carlos (& considering how Carlos hasn't produced a coherent phrase in almost two decades - one really wonders what the letters are like)
.........................But Idi Amin a good guy??????????

Idi Amin expelled all the Asians of Uganda to Britain. He was a racist who turned Muslim and received lots of 'aid' from Saudi Arabia. His soldiers were a law unto themselves and raped and looted in towns and villages. They murdered about 250,000 people during the time of Amin's regime, mostly members of tribes in central and southern Uganda, while Amin promoted the economic interests of members of his own minority ethnic group in the north. Soldiers invaded the campus of the distinguished Makerere University, killed and beat many students, and vandalised building equipment. Makerere had been one of Africa's best universities and has not fully recovered from those years.
Chavez in praising Amin and Mugabe is shooting his mouth off in a sick way.
