"Sheikh Rashid says that Mian Nawaz Sharif is responsible for the many factions of PML not getting together."
"OK, but since when have we started listening to Sheikh Rashid? I mean he is a party of one man and that man did not win any seat in the general elections of February 18."
"Ah, but Sheikh Rashid is in the know."
"Sorry?"
"He does know what is happening politically at least and that is why he's on every TV channel even today."
"But when he was Minister of Disinformation he was spreading disinformation around."
"But then he was fulfilling the terms of reference."
"I guess."
"So anyway according to Sheikh Rashid it's Mian Sahib who is the main deterrent to the Grand Merger."
"That's silly. It's like saying that President Zardari is the main reason why Naheed Khan was sidelined from the party."
"But it's true."
"Yes, but without Zardari nothing is possible in the PPP."
"Speaking of no Bhutto in power do you think that Zulfikar Ali Bhutto's 81st birthday party will be celebrated with fervour?"
"I would be surprised. I mean even Quaid-e-Azam's birthday was not celebrated as in the past. Not a single senior PPP leader landed at the Quaid's mazaar. They were all at BB's mazaar."
"So lip-service."
"I would imagine and maybe a cake cutting by Sherry Rehman, the present Minister of Disinformation."
"In her case I have to say that she actually believes the disinformation."
"The PML (N) would tend to agree with you there."
