Honestly i think it is time i just stopped followingMalawi politics all together because it gets crazier, wierder, and funnier by the minute. I sometimes feel we do not even practice politics in Malawi but rather bribery, appeasement, theft, extortion, and threats. I think i do not have to give examples because ,honestly, i do not think i have the space or time to go into that because it would surely take the whole day. One simply has to open the Malawi newspapers (if they can be called that) to see just how hilarious and pathetic malawi politics has become. You have members of parliament who have no inkling of an idea on what the word parliament means (not to add most cannot even spell the word 'parliament') let alone know what they are supposed to do there (of course the other problem is that Chichewa can not be spoken in the áugust house so many MPs would rather remain quiet than look like imbeciles). You have a president who is still fishing around for a clear-cut agenda (plus political allies) instead of ruling, and an opposition that is more bent on destroying the president and his chosen lietenants ( of course dancing to the tune of one man) rather than coming up with  constructive criticism. Of course in the end the politicians get richer and the poor masses get poorer and Malawi continues to go to the dogs!!!!
