"The axis of evil..."
"Yep that was Bush in his infinite arrogance."
"He is still arrogant."
"But not as much - previously there was no one and I mean no one, not even the domestic so-called free Press that was challenging his version of facts. Now as you know the situation is reversed and his popularity ratings are really low."
"I recall Musharraf and his contention that his popularity ratings were high in rural areas."
"In his dreams but see one, Bush, was a democrat and another, Musharraf, was a dictator and both had to bow down to public opinion in the end."
"Agreed but what is this about the axis of evil - wasn't this yet another of Bush saying."
"Yes and he labelled Iran, Korea and Iraq as countries belonging to the axis of evil."
"So he dealt with one alone, Iraq."
"He needed another term to deal with Iran."
"Couldn't he have changed the constitution, extended his term and declared emergency."
"Don't be facetious. But interesting isn't it? This concept of axis of evil! Why we have our own axis of evil here too."
"I haven't heard of this."
"Well, for Zardari, the axis if evil are the PML(N) trio: Khwaja Asif, Chaudhry Nisar and Ahsan Iqbal."
"I thought Dar would be there too."
"Once Dar left the Finance Ministry the PPP was fine with him - besides don't forget he hasn't been talking to the media at all in recent weeks - just sits besides Mian Sahib."
"Right but who are the axis of evil in the PPP as far as the PML(N) are concerned?"
"I think at this point Zardari probably leads that august group for the Nawalas. Followed by two competitive sycophants, namely Naek and Rehman Malik."
"Ah yes."
