"The President is looking for directors."
"Why? I thought he was a director himself."
"How come?"
"Isn't he directing the business of state?"
"Yes in his capacity as the co-chairman of the party, but constitutionally..."
"Oh come off it! These constitutional matters are rather irksome..."
"But open to interpretation by the Supreme Court."
"And the Supreme Court cannot implement its decisions without calling an enforcer if you will which could be the police..."
"Not while Rehman Malik is the Interior Minister."
"OK and the army..."
"Ah ha! Was the President referring to the army when he said he is looking for the director?"
"He couldn't, could he? The army can at best be an enforcer. It can't be the director."
"If by director the President was implying someone who is directing political turmoil in the country today then I agree with you: the army does not qualify."
"Who does?"
"Well I am afraid as I said before the answer lies within Bilawal House. The President himself is directing most of these political controversies and..."
"So what's the army in your opinion? The enforcer?"
"Yes."
"But the President is right. There are conspiracy theories doing the rounds and..."
"And they all emanate as a consequence of some action or decision taken in the Presidency."
"OK so who do you think the President should seek if not the director?"
"The producer, he/she is the one with the money and that's who can change actors at a moment's notice."
"Don't be facetious."
