    Disgraceful but even if he was challenged and defeated there would still be people like him waiting in the wings. His little lapdog Platini for one.

    apparently The Sun compared Blatter and Colonel Gaddiffi... Got to agree they are very similarious, both quite, quite mad and very delusional

    I'm not sure oxymoron's the right term, any wordsmiths know? It's erroneous, but there's bound to be a better word.

    What about similar examples?

    Chesterfields spire's not crooked.
    Dale Winton's straight.

    A very quick glance at the pictures and I thought it was about John Prescott joining a rap band.

    I know, but FIFA and corrupt sit hand in hand. don't they? More tautology or a redundancy than oxymoron I'd say.

    It's not oxymoronic as it doesn't contradict itself but I'm stuck between whether it's erroneous or just simply sarcasm <whistle>

    How does Blatter get away with it?

    All I can think is that the smaller nations will band together with the right incentives.

    As you say it is not oxymoronic as it doesn't directly contradict itself (e.g. the living dead) but i believe it is erroneous as it is wrong and untrue. I also sense a hint of sarcasm in there aswell ;)
