WARNING: This is Version 1 of my old archive, so Photos will NOT work and many links will NOT work. But you can find articles by searching on the Titles. There is a lot of information in this archive. Use the SEARCH BAR at the top right. Prior to December 2012; I was a pro-Christian type of Conservative. I was unaware of the mass of Jewish lies in history, especially the lies regarding WW2 and Hitler. So in here you will find pro-Jewish and pro-Israel material. I was definitely WRONG about the Boeremag and Janusz Walus. They were for real.

Pretoria – President Thabo Mbeki has not yet made a decision on whether to appoint an acting health minister while Manto Tshabalala-Msimang is in hospital, his spokesperson Mukoni Ratshitanga said on Monday.
“The president has the prerogative to appoint or relieve any minister of his or her duties and regarding the health minister, the president has not said anything yet,” Ratshitanga said.
When a decision is made, the government would issue out a statement, he said.
Last week the health department requested to have an acting minister appointed while Tshabalala-Msimang was in hospital.
On Saturday, health spokesperson Sibani Mngadi confirmed that they had approached Mbeki to appoint an acting minister as the department was experiencing difficulties without any leadership.
“We are continuing although it is difficult for us without leadership.
“However, there are discussions with the presidency to look at the issue of appointing an acting minister, which we hope will be another person who is currently a minister,” said Mngadi.
Tshabalala-Msimang was admitted to Johannesburg hospital last Tuesday. She is being treated for anaemia and pleural effusion [an abnormal accumulation of fluid in the pleural cavity – a fluid-filled space surrounding the lungs] and has already undergone a blood transfusion.
According to the health minister’s spokesperson, her condition was improving.
