"Bypassed again." "Well let me tell you the Chaudhry was not bypassed, he was never bypassed. All he wanted was to be a caretaker PM and the king maker and he got both. Some people don't want to be out there in the front if you know what I mean."
"About the situation in Sindh?" "I know that the Chaudhry is supporting the Sindh Revenue Minister while the Chosen One is supporting the Chief Minister. But the inquiry, the PM inquiry team if you will, will sort it all out once and for all."
"Since when did our inquiry teams sort out anything?"
"But they do allow the one with the power to emerge victorious with the full backing of the state institutions or committees."
"But the Chosen One set up the committee."
"But he is not the one with the power."
"So who is the one with the power?"
"Musharraf."
"That doesn't answer my question."
"It should. Musharraf is the only one with the power."
"But going back to the Chaudhry I have read reports that Pervez Elahi met Shahbaz Sharif in London and that the Chaudhry has also flown to Germany via London to meet with him. At the same time our Embassy in Saudi Arabia has asked about the request from Nawaz Sharif to be allowed to visit London as well. And Musharraf's emissary is also in London discussing politics with Shahbaz Sharif."
"I suppose our Embassy in Saudi Arabia is feeling like the Chosen One must feel in his dealings with Musharraf, not knowing but having to do and die."
"Bypassed, hunh! I suppose you are right. But the point is that if the Sharifs are getting together with the government, and the Chaudhry's have re-established contact with them that really leaves the Chosen One kinda isolated and..."
"And exactly where he was before. All he had was Musharraf on his side and the moment Musharraf thinks it is no longer politic for him to keep the Chosen One as PM he will be gone and he will have to go quietly."
"Yes, this is the new code of conduct for chosen PMs as per a deal made between the President and his anointed, past, present and future."
"Jamali?"
"Let him be. He was a Musharrafite when in power and now his credibility is suspect."
