Jacob Zuma really is an unbelievably major clown*.

We wonder who will next be added to the ever growing list of media groups, editors, columnists, journalists, radio DJ’s and cartoonists he is already suing for supposedly damaging his reputation (not that they were needed for that)?

Suing the international blogosphere though may be a bit trickier.
