Mahateh Strikes Back

Many lawyers were angry with me because I had quoted Shakespeare during a Cabinet meeting which says "the first thing we do, we hang the lawyers". I was only joking but they heard of it and believed I meant what I said. The judges also felt unhappy with me

Tun Mahathir

Above was an excerpt from his letter to The Sun on 7th Apr 2008. Sounds like a barrel of baloney to me. How would he like it if someone suggest hanging him and then say it was a joke? Plus come on, Cabinet meeting is a serious time for serious business and not a parody of jokes by Ministers. Lucky for people of planet Earth, he was once only Prime Minister of Malaysia.........nothing more than that.
