"Julia Pierson has resigned."
"Who in the world is she?"
I can't believe, you haven't heard of her - she is so much in the international news, she is the first female Director of US secret service."
"The politics of domestic containers in domestic media is keeping me rather occupied."
"Well, that's silly - the status quo remains - I mean what's new - the same o same o speeches."
"Ah, but each day is marked by one more folly."
"OK, so Maryam Nawaz shouldn't have tweeted what she did - as a member of government you cannot condone violence especially against those chanting slogans and..."
"She is not a member of government."
"Excuse me! Have you forgotten she is head of the 100 billion rupee fund earmarked for loans to the youth..."
"A scheme that seems to have died a natural death - anyway 'go Nawaz go' is not a new slogan, there was 'go Zardari go' courtesy the PML-N, going back there was 'go Musharraf go'..."
"But, 'go Nawaz go' has taken on a life of its own you have to admit."
"True, and there is ne'er an abusive word in it."
"Ask the First Daughter that."
"OK, so why did Julia Pierson resign?"
"She resigned after two lapses with respect to Obama's security were aired."
"This media I swear..."
"What would have happened if Rehman Malik was heading the agency?"
"He would have bought a flat in Washington..."
"Don't be facetious."
"OK, he would have appeared on television and said he would quit politics if found responsible and then allowed time to ensure that the issue was no longer in the news."
"But Malik has graduated from being a bureaucrat to a politician."
"Oh I see, you are asking me what would happen if a bureaucrat was involved?"
"Duh! Yes!"
"Oh, if he was retired then the government would have granted him an extension and if he had not yet reached the age of retirement he would have been promoted."
"You are being facetious."
"No, just realistic."
