Mugabe's recent comments stating to the world that "Only God can remove him from power".  Should really be careful in his choice of words and Hitmen.  Sometimes Prayers Do come true.  God has a Son with an itchy trigger finger and a host of like minded followers.  And I am not a betting man, but I am pretty sure God was listening this time!

BULAWAYO, Zimbabwe -- Zimbabwe President Robert Mugabe said Friday "only God" can remove him from office, in comments ahead of next week's tense run-off election.

"The MDC will never be allowed to rule this country -- never ever," Mr. Mugabe said in a meeting with local business people, referring to the opposition Movement for Democratic Change.

"Only God who appointed me will remove me, not the MDC, not the British."

It's not the first time he's said this, as regional bystanders continue to imagine that the runoff will somehow be more fair than the first.

Thanks for visiting jordan, there is a saying, keep spouting the same thing over and over, and eventually it will be heard, and may become true.
