Partly Facetious: He's doing the wrong thing at the wrong time

"I simply can't understand the man's inexorable drive to do the wrong thing at the wrong time."
"Who are you referring to?"
"President Zardari."
"This is political victimisation, the poor guy is a recent widower and you have left no stone unturned to victimise him and..."
"Please hear me out."
"I am not going to. I believe that you, like the other members of the media, are targeting him the same way you targeted other PPP leaders, Z A Bhutto and his daughter and..."
"I am not accusing him of corruption or murder this time, all I am accusing him is of doing the wrong thing at the wrong time."
"What did he do that you don't approve of?"
"His trip to Afghanistan at this time! The entire world is agreed that the elections in Afghanistan were rigged and the West is warning Karzai to pull up his socks...and here is our President who opted to emerge from his bunker, not to commiserate with the victims of suicide blasts, not to go to a Utility Store to commiserate with the consumers, not to..."
"There is a security risk to Zardari if he visits these sites."
"And Afghanistan is safer than South Waziristan!"
"OK I concede that. Let's blame it on his Interior Minister who doesn't let him go out of the Presidency but the Foreign Minister encourages him to go to countries outside Pakistan."
"So I guess the reshuffle would mean Malik becomes the Foreign Affairs Minister and Qureshi the Interior Minister?"
"Don't be facetious. Anyway, Afghanistan is a country that we work closely with and after all the AfPak policy of the United States does lump the two countries together..."
"I thought the Foreign Office was trying to delink the two - that Afghanistan and Pakistan are different countries and..."
"Karzai came to President Zardari's oath taking, so this was a return of the favour."
"In world politics there is only national interest, no loyalty to one's foreign friends."
"But you know the President doesn't abandon his friends."
"Unfortunately the entire country knows that."
"But they do have similar taste in clothes - they were both wearing black."
"Maybe they were in mourning for being maligned by all and sundry."
