A snake in DPM's clothing

It's confirmed - Politics and power make you stupid. Najib, Deputy Prime Minister, is proving that he is a bit thick up there for assuming that the people can't see through snake-talk and hogwash.

Today's headline in The Star:
DPM: Fighting corruption a national mission
KUALA LUMPUR: Fighting corruption remains a national mission and the Government is all out to eradicate graft.
“Some people might be quick to say that the Government is not serious in fighting corruption or that the Prime Minister is the only person speaking on this subject,” said Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak.
“But let me remind everyone that this is not just the agenda of the Prime Minister. The Cabinet is firmly behind him on this,” Najib said in his keynote address at the third anniversary of the National Integrity Plan (NIP) and Integrity Institute of Malaysia.

And yet a day earlier, in TheSun:
Najib announces RM3.5m for mosques, suraus, schools in Kg Jaya Setia
BATANG BERJUNTAI (April 23, 2007): The Barisan National (BN) is leaving nothing to chance in Kampung Jaya Setia within the Ijok constituency.
Yesterday, Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak announced a special RM3.5 million allocation from the Prime Minister's Department for seven mosques, 16 suraus and six schools for the constituency.
"Although there has not been any request for these but we feel that we need to do this as a sign of the BN's commitment," he said during a ceramah in Kampung Jaya Setia.


**Duhh. This guy's a sad case. One of a pack of them up there in Bluffsville, Putrajaya.

Ain't the first. Won't be the last. It's become so commonplace nowadays, these two-faced declarations, the only way to shut them up is to kick them out. With nice steel-toed construction boots. Simple as that.
