kingbang: Good. Can you remember this statement? "If you want more unemployment and more job losses, then keep on striking. Don't blame me." ? (lashing out on strikers)
And this...

"I personally think it utterly disgraceful that any British person should put at risk the health of any sick person, old person or child merely because they want more money in their pockets when other people have settled for that same amount of increase they've been offered," she declared. (Addressing the The National Health Service dispute)

So whats the difference with PEJ reply to your shameless professor? Because she called his opinions of her a "disappointment"? Get real
That was directed at the Unions but in the she closed the the coal and mining industry and she was forced out of office, theirs a reason why they referred her to the Person with the eyes of CALIGULA

WildChild00: Kindly, do so google search man, and moreover Mrs Abacha was not frequently seen in public, due to her religious believe, but this is not to say she was never @ the public domain.
Look read between the lines when I say she wasnt in the limelight it doesnt mean she was completely away from the everyone or the public, is like asking how many times did you see Shagari's wife?
PoliticsRe: Soyinka On Patience Jonathan & Link With Amaechi by omar22(m): 2:08pm On Jul 22, 2013
WildChild00: You asked how many times Mrs. Maryam Abacha was seen in public, the simple answer is who founded the National Hospital Abuja? And how was it commissioned? Secondly, how was the national hospital for women and children commissioned? And where was Mr. Wole Soyinka during the military dictatorship of General Sanni Abacha? Perhaps hiding in one of the western countries.
I would say it again the few times you hear about Mrs Abacha its about something positive compared to the character from Madagascar 4 who comes out and blow hot-air

anago12: to those suffering from the hippotami virus and the shepoptamus syndrome keep bashing a man you can't equal even if you reincarnate ten times. we won't stop bashing the presidency cause he and his hang-ons and sidekicks open the insulting spree, firstly our elders were rascals later we were called children of anger and other names. so when we hurl ret.ardeen, hippotami, shepopotamus and manatees and other adjectives at them the world should know they started the war and as yorubas we can never defeated in the mouth war. awa ni omo ti ko ki lo ile lo gba esi. to all you manatees and mami wati we are ready to intellectually place you all in the path of reasoning. and least I forget madam shepopotati should learn to be a lady before becoming a first lady.

WildChild00: But, be that as it may be, it is still on record till dat, that you people ran out of the country on exile, speaking frm an unknown country, even with an un-licensed radio station, lemme ask you, one more time, during Military regime of the late Abacha can Mr. wole Soyinka use such language as an advise to Mrs Abacha? The simple answer is absolutely no no no, or Mustapha and co will just arrange him.
How many times did you see Mrs Abacha in the news or in public?

Yes we did see the late Miriam Babangida but she acted more gracefully and was honoured as one of the most influencial person in Africa. Compared to the one who should audition for the next series of the cartoon movie called Madagascar. Abeg joor someone should put the hippo in a "hot air balloon" and send it towards the Island of Dr Maureaux!

She would provide the hot air!

Goddex: Prof is asking PEJ to copy from michelle Obama and I stand bold to say Prof is not in tune with American politics.
Obama's wife is receiving her own doses of such politically motivated criticisms. She is criticized from all corners from her "expensive" trip to spain to even minor issues like her dress sense. Infact, she is being nicknamed a "wannabe celebrity". It is not easy being the wife of a President in a Presidential system of government and I expect our amiable Prof Wole Soyinka to know this because often, the opposition see the wife as a prey to attack the president himself. That is exactly what is happening in Nigeria.

awodman: Seems Soyinka now has a penchant for uncouth languages...even if you want to correct someone and in doing that you lace insults on the person naturally the person will become infuriated and would never listen to whatever you have to say...

Our dear soyinka there is something called COMMON SENSE...seek it and apply it or risk further insults from people who on a normal day would not dare exchanging words with you..
Tell me whats common sense in the first lady closing a public road because she wants to attend her hair-dresser? who need enemies when we have people like you lot! Cherrie Blair (Tony Blair's wife) former UK Prime Minister's wife took a public train from London to Luton even forgot to buy a train ticket and was about to face criminal charges, but the punch line here is that she gets on the public transport.
TV/MoviesRe: Which Is The Better Movie? White House Down 2013 Or Olympus Has Fallen 2013 by omar22(m): 9:57am On Jul 22, 2013
Olympus has fallen to me is the movie of the year so far...

How I wish they gave the leading role to Bruce Willis

I could see the comparison but Jamie Fox acting the role of a US President was a joke, interviewing for the security job in the white house is another joke.

But in reality a plan by the North Korean activists flew all the way to white house without been challenged is a no no, they would have blown it out of the sky before it reaches anywhere near the white house

SportsRe: FORMULA ONE (F1 2013) Official Thread For 2013 Season by omar22(m): 10:19am On Jul 12, 2013
MRbrownJAY: and i never doubted that Lewis finished second, it is when people are saying that Lewis "outperformed" him that i have a beef. if you obviously drive better, win more races and have a great deal of points MORE than another driver, then you can say that one outperformed the other........but in this case, it went down the line, and technicality had to separate them. that would be as silly as saying that Vettel outperformed Alonso last yr, when we all know that it was a race to the last corner where each could have been champion. now if we look at 2011, where vettel won 11 races that yr, THEN we can talk of clearly outperforming Alonso or anyone else in the field.
Outperform sounds like an overhyped statement, you know the British press, but people are looking at it from an angle of the double champion vs the rookie, most people didnt expect them both to be on the same page let alone both be on the same podium, but those who have followed Lewis from his Go-Kart day and through the Formula 2 and 3 were not surprised by his pace, but those who are trying to catch the attention or be controversal in their statement would use the word outperform.

If I really want to get to Fernando fanboys, then Lewis's rookie year would be the perfect line to use but you and I know that it went down to the wire. Vettel fans boys always choose how he won in a Torro Rosso, my argument would be he won in the rain, in the rain anything could happen, Bottas nearly got pole in the rain in Canada, Hulkenburg got pole in the Williams in Brazil, Olivier Panis won in the rain at Monaco, Jenson Button's first win came in the rain all am saying is that in the rain anything could happen it brings the cars closer together i think Schumacher's first win came in the rain

MRbrownJAY: as for the Hamster vs Alonso, again you are not looking at the right data (only the ones that fits your biased agenda)..... F1 is about consistency on the track, nothing else, so let me correct you ONCE AGAIN:
- Alonso won 4 races that yr not 3, same as the Hamster (Malaysia, Monaco, Europe and Italy).
- Alonso had 12 podium finishes that yr, same as the Hamster.
- Alonso had 109 points, same as the Hamster.
Look you and I know that if Kimi's record dramatically disappear or was disqualified the Championchip would go to Lewis on count-back because they are going to look at the amount of wins, the amount of 2nd and 3rd place. Remember that in Brazil 6th place would put him Level with Massa but on count back Massa wins the title thats why he had to secure 5th place, yes they both levelled on 109 points but on count back Lewis finished ahead of Fernando.

Lewis had 5 2nd places to Alonso's 4 thats what tipped it towards Lewis

obailala: When our dracula politicians read comments like yours, all they do is smile and pop some more champagne cos they know the people they rule are idiots.

Tolling isn't much of a problem but I think N500 is way out of order especially considering the Nigerian economy
Yes most infrastructures like road and bridges been built in the western world has a toll on it but I dont agree with N500 which is too high, yes this levy goes towards the maintenance of the bridge its not like they collect road tax in Nigeria

MRbrownJAY: ^^ Bennetton in the mid 90s was a fantastic team but they slowly became bottom feeders by the end of the 90s. when Renault bought the team, they were NO WHERE close to the schumi/Herbert yrs....

so lets not fool ourselves here, in 2003 Renault was a bottom feeder to the Ferraris, Mc Larens and BMW-Williams......and Alonso (and Renault) only win this yr was a feat on its own....pls remember that when he won, Schumi was on top of the driver standing, in front of Montoya and Kimi (anyone saying that Schumi was done by then is a damn liar)

now, in 2005/2006, yes the Renault car was competitive, but definitely NOT in 2003.
Your right in 2003 Renault wasnt a strong team


Didnt Giancarlo Fisichella win that year in a Jordan?
SportsRe: FORMULA ONE (F1 2013) Official Thread For 2013 Season by omar22(m): 12:18pm On Jul 11, 2013
MRbrownJAY: ^^ i am very sorry to say that Webber is just a "common" driver in a fast car, any of the second rated drivers you mentioned above could do what he does. hell , i would even say that:"put a Kobayashi in that RBR and you will see miracles!"

again, pls check Alonso's record with an unbiased mind as i doubt he was "outperformed" by the Hamster. both finished on equal points that yr, how can you call that outperforming someone?! bwaaaaah!!!!!!! check your data ONCE again, as we all know that Alonso's first ever win was in 2003 with Renault, when Renault was bottom feeders and Kimi/Schumacher were at their best.

bro, why do you not see the logic in that fastest lap stuff?! anyone with an empty tank, fresh tyres and clear track will get closer to the fastest lap of the race. Kimi was tucked behind Grosjean and therefore didnt have a clear track when his tyres were fresh at the end of the race. Alonso did have a clear track after his pit and did the fastest laps right then.........after that lap, his time went downhill from there.

we all know that Alonso rarely have bad days at the office, but what you are implying is that he had a bad day at the office for the past 4races?! come on!
Are you talking about the same Renault (old Benatton F1) Schumacher won the 2 titles in? he even won a title in a car that had a Ford Coswort V8 engine when the rest of the field had a V10 engine, the Renault Alonso drove was one of the fastests cars in 05 Ferrari won one race due to lack of pace and new tyre regulations which favours cars using Michelin tyres and not bridgestone tyres this was why Kimi, Alonso and Montoya racked up all the victories, but reliability issues hampered the McLaren boys. 06 car was an illegal car from Renualt and they tiptoed across the line that season... Yes Renault does not have the same financial power as McLaren or Ferrari but they have always had an extremly fast cars when they get it right.
SportsRe: FORMULA ONE (F1 2013) Official Thread For 2013 Season by omar22(m): 10:43am On Jul 11, 2013
MRbrownJAY: as for anyone (aka Omar22 or A40) who thinks the Ferrari is competitive TODAY (let us forget about 9 races ago), then ask yourself this very simple question:"shouldnt it be Alonso fighting to overtake Vettel, instead of the Lotus (if that Ferrari car was competitive)?" are you two (other Vettel/Ham cheerleaders can respond) the only ones that cannot see that the Ferrari car had absolutely NO PACE? the only time we saw a glimpse of some SPEED and competitive lap time was at the end for a few laps, when Alonso changed tyres.
What your failing to realise is that the Nürburgring GP is not a track that Ferrari has enjoyed any form of success, Hockenheimring yes because of the characteristic of the circuit and from what I heard it has been reported elsewhere, that filipe is testing parts for ferdis car. notice how they often use differing bodywork etc the spins are peculiar, they all happen on rh corners but the car goes left. at Silverstone, the hydraulics failed, jamming the car in fifth. in Monaco, Ferrari first of all blamed filipe, but then recanted and admitted it was suspension failure, so maybe they are testing interconnected suspension on flips car?

We know you are a Ferdi fanboy but bear in mind different courses for different horses, The next race is all about who stick its car on the front row because the Hungaroring is Monaco without barriers, not a fast track and if your find yourself behind a slow car your doomed.

Last season McLaren's brain fart handed the title to Vettel due to unreliability issues when Lewis had to retire from the front 3 times then the pit stop issues in australia, Bahrain, Monaco, Malaysia, Valencia etc
in 2010 Ferrari handed the title to Vettel when they got suckered by RBR calling in Webber and Ferrari reacted to the move which got Ferdi suck behind Petrov for more than 30 lap. The 2011 car was the car that had the flexi front wing, double blowing diffuser and engine mapping which had an extremely high downforce suited to Vettel's driving style
