"The Khan said he will never ever give an NRO to opposition leaders and he said that in the presence of...."
"Stop your conspiracy theories....."
"It's kind of hard when convicted individuals are on bail at home, rather luxurious homes, with all facilities and..."
"Perhaps, but you misunderstand The Khan when he says he will not give anyone an NRO....NRO does not mean National Reconciliation Ordinance, that is possible only when a military dictator is heading the government, but Noise Radar for Offal....in other words you may dismiss the noise as a butcher's discards, a fact that the blather radar has not yet caught on to perhaps...."
"Don't be facetious, do you reckon that The Khan reckons if he says it enough times..."
"The Khan has never stopped saying it, so saying it enough times does not make it so in our political history."
"Surely there are other ways of demeaning the opposition leadership. I mean it's not as if they haven't provided enough justification to their critics..."
"Ah but it is their supporters that pose the danger because neither the Zardis nor the Nawalas are ready to trade their leaders with others."
"That because their leadership remains within the family right! Zardari sahib has Bilawal and his two daughters and Hamza Shahbaz is going to stay in the country even if the court allows Nawaz Sharif to go to London and he is unlikely to go without his daughter..."
"But with all the senior Sharifs in London what would that do to the party?"
"Exactly what happened to the party after Musharraf's coup - they left the country and returned what eight years later for the elections and recaptured Punjab. I don't understand this hype about Bilawal being the only legitimate opposition in the country! I mean taking on The Khan may get him media coverage but I doubt if it's going to get him any additional votes."
"So you reckon the Sharifs will return as soon the environment is conducive to their taking over power again - in Punjab and/or in the centre."
"Yep but I don't understand why Shahbaz Sharif selected Khawaja Asif as the parliamentary leader - the two never saw eye to eye before and..."
"Right and that my friend means Nawaz Sharif is very much in control."
"In control, but he is on the back-foot right?"
"I wouldn't consider him being on the back foot - he is out of jail on medical grounds after his conviction, his daughter is out on bail on God knows what grounds, after conviction, because she hasn't claimed she is ill right?"
"See the world is surely round - we come back to the NRO and..."
"No two ways about it, the world is round."
