Musewe still campaigning for Tsvangirai Mujuru coalition - it is like talking to a brick wall

Talking to people like Vince Musewe is like talking to a brick wall; whatever you say just bounces of the wall leaving the wall no wiser.
"A number of people have argued vociferously about both individuals, that Tsvangirai has failed and that Mujuru has a soiled past. That may be true, but that doesn't get us out of the Zanu PF problem," wrote Vince Musewe in his latest article.
"For the next election we will need solid plans and numbers. In my opinion, Tsvangirai brings those numbers whether we like it or not, while Mujuru gives us access to the army and intelligence constituency, something that the MDC-T has failed to capture over the years."
Before you get anywhere brother; Tsvangirai is a corrupt, incompetent leader who sold-out during the GNU years. He has the opportunity to implement the GPA reforms but failed to get even one reform implemented. Not one!
If we are serious about ending the Zanu PF dictatorship then we must implement all the GPA reforms. Tsvangirai is calling for the alignment of electoral reforms which anyone with half a brain will tell you will never deliver free and fair elections.
Mai Mujuru is a corrupt, incompetent and lazy leader. She was right at the heart of the Zanu PF dictatorship and yet she has no clue how Mugabe rigged the elections. If Mujuru ever got back into power, her top priority would be to consolidate her own position by replacing Mugabe loyalists with Mujuru loyalists. We will still have a dictatorship be it with a new dictator and new party name.
Yes, it is true that Tsvangirai never earned the respect of those in the security services but that was his fault. Amount the many reforms in the GPA were reforms designed to end President Mugabe's undemocratic control of the security sector.
If the nation had spent the last two and half years demanding the implementation of all the GPA reforms President Mugabe would have got the message by now that the reforms must be implemented. We have wasted this time talking to brick walls, some wittering about NERA whilst other witter about a coalition of twiddle dee and twiddle dumb; neither of which will deliver free, fair and credible elections.
You acknowledge that Mugabe will never win free, fair and credible elections so why are you not focusing all you energy on demanding the implementation of the GPA reforms necessary for free, fair and credible elections? We both know that Tsvangirai and Mujuru will never deliver free and fair elections. Never ever!
"The problem with us is that we debate too much and do nothing to make change happen. There are a lot of views out there particularly in the diaspora, but in my view, they remain just that — opinions that will not lead to change on the ground. We will have to use what we have for now and its best to gather our energies and resources around an MDC-T and People First partnership," argued Musewe.
So you think only your ideas are valid everyone else has "opinions that will not lead to change on the ground"! How patronizing!
Both Tsvangirai and Mujuru are corrupt and incompetent leaders with track record to prove; these are historic facts and not a matter "may be true" speculation. How your opinion can ignore historic facts and yet you still think your views are more valid that those of people who accept facts is a measure of your arrogance. The same dictatorial arrogance President Mugabe is renowned; the very thing we want to end!
On the contrary, the debate is with brick walls; you have set your mind on Tsvangirai and Mujuru and will not listen to reason. You have grudgingly accepted the two are corrupt and incompetent and yet want to try them once again regardless their past record of failures in the hope that this time they will do better.
After 35 years of trying the same corrupt and incompetent leaders reason says change the political system to one that will encourage quality leaders to emerge!
The people of Zimbabwe have been denied their right to a meaningful vote for 35 years now; the next elections must be free, fair and credible. We have the chance to achieve this if only we do not allow ourselves to be side tracked again as happened during the GNU!
