FAKES in ONE

JOHANNESBURG — A
man who appeared to provide sign language
interpretation on stage for Nelson Mandela's memorial service, attended
by scores of heads of state, was a "fake," the national director of the
Deaf Federation of South Africa said on Wednesday.
The unidentified man seen around the world on television next to
leaders including United States President Barack Obama "was moving his
hands around but there was no meaning in what he used his hands for,"
Bruno Druchen, the federation's national director, told The
Associated
Press.

Dammit, how many times I gotta tell you guys . . . he wasn't signing gibberish -- he was translating into International Governmentese.
ReplyDeleteThat's why people couldn't understand what he was saying. They weren't SUPPOSED to!!
ebonics?
ReplyDeleteI don't know what you people are talking about. It's perfectly clear. He wants the runner to steal second.
ReplyDeleteCommon guys!....It's not reality that counts. It's how things are perceived that matters...... You know, just like politics and customer service.
ReplyDeleteI love this story.
ReplyDeleteMaybe we can resurrect the “signing” version of the ghost of George Orwell to interpret what was probably a more accurate interpretation of the bullshit strewn on that stage yesterday.
Do these Leftists even know how easily they are pawned?
Add a few narcissistic “selfies” from “world leaders” for flavor, and you’ve got societal collapse on a global scale.
I say “whoa”.

ReplyDeleteThe continuing saga of symbolism over substance. It don't mean nothing, if nobody knows what is being signed...he was trying real hard. Then again, it was poli-tic-ians speaking, and prolly no one understood what they were saying either...What? Their lips were moving?
ReplyDeleteCome to find out said interpreter is a violent schizophrenic.
ReplyDeleteIt's not often you see two of them sharing a stage...
