At a press conference in Washington today President Bush embarrassed himself and the country once again when he said Nelson Mandela was dead,

I heard somebody say, Where’s Mandela? Well, Mandela’s dead because Saddam Hussein killed all the Mandelas.

Well Mr Bush. ‘I don’t read the newspapers’, Nelson Mandela is very much alive.

Bush’s comments received worldwide coverage as references to Mandela’s death are seen as insensitive in South Africa. Achmat Dangor, chief executive officer of the Nelson Mandela Foundation said,

It’s out there. All we can do is reassure people, especially South Africans, is that President Mandela is alive.
