All smoke and mirrors. It's the true compassion of leftist regimes. They only want to look good.
I'm not sure if I'm serious, but it sounds good. |

Quoted:
Someone on Team Barry thought this was a good idea. A feel-good prop? 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. http://abcnews.go.com/International/wireStory/mandela-ceremony-interpreter-deemed-fake-21173616 So it was an accurate translation of what was coming out of the politicians' mouths? |

Pomp and circumstance and all that..probably because no one actually qualifies there to do that job.. So it's all an illusion..just like the BS about how great Mandela was..he was their"great revered leader"..Zero is ours
 ..taking "selfies" no less at the "party"
In truth the country of S.A. iis more pucked up now than it ever has been..but no one comments on that..long as they have the black Marxists who hate whites in charge. Google farm murders South African farm murders of whites learn what these folks are all about..genocide is genocide no matter the instigators..Their whole system is now built on lies and corruption..but no one dares criticize them..or their "annointed one" Mandela. |

Did we organize this? It doesn't seem like we did, given the location, the event, etc. Seems more like South Africa fucked up and hired someone who wasn't qualified.
But hey, Obama's in the picture so it must be his fault. "The unidentified man seen around the world on television next to leaders including United States President Barack Obama" |

That's a pretty silly assumption to make, considering nothing in the article even hints at the interpreter being provided by Obama, the interpreter was used by multiple politicians, and the event occurred in a foreign country. I have no idea how the OP was able to jump to that conclusion, other than poor reading. Especially considering this line which strongly suggests that the interpreter was provided by the ANC. "Druchen said a fresh complaint will be filed to the ANC about the interpreter he called a "fake" with a demand for an urgent meeting." |

To be fair, there are different "sign languages" out there.
American sign language is not the world standard, it's what we use in western English speaking countries, maybe in Africa is was Swahili sign language!

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. So? What's the problem? It's not like there was any real meaning to anything Obama said. A fake interpreter is the perfect interpreter for a POTUS who is fake about everything except his own feelings of arrogance, entitlement and superiority. |

I would think Sign Language would be rather universal. It should be at least. No need for differences based on geography.

ASL has a different syntax than English, signed English is closer to what we speak - but it seems the young of today only learn ASL and it's the older people that use signed English more. Then of course the UK has a completely different sign language.. |
