Partly Facetious: For Obama it may cost his re-election bid

"We are sticklers for an apology."
"I am not sure that is all that is pertinent in international relations."
"To each unto his own!"
"What does that mean?"
"For Obama an apology to Pakistan may cost his re-election bid, see Ms Clinton is going to sit by the wayside for the next four years or so it is being reported, so for Obama not to apologize is considered a positive for his reelection bid but does a sorry for us imply that the PPP would be re-elected?"
"I am afraid the PPP needs to say sorry for a lot more, the load shedding, the gas shedding, the inflation, the manipulation of statistics to reflect a utopia from our perspective, the lawlessness and..."
"Hey, what's good for the goose is good for the gander."
"So, for Obama not to apologize and letting Hillary Clinton do it is good for the goose and the goose in this case is the reelection bid and the apology is also good for the gander, the PPP, which in our case is not the reelection bid but enabling the economy access to funds from the US as well as US sponsored multilateral support to the economy, which effectively means more loans, that would translate into more outlay for the impending elections which in turn..."
"Oh quit it, I am so tired of hearing all this but if you think that the decision to reopen Nato supply routes was the civilian government's alone then you are really delusional."
"OK, but our gander is also allowing the government to stay in power for as long as it possibly can - or as close to the finish line as determined by the five-year period ending 18th February next year."
"But an apology from the US simply means the restoration of status quo... No taxes on the supplies, as they say in Urdu agreeing to work on the same salary."
"Remember Raymond Davis being escorted out of the country after being responsible for three deaths while our reward was a drone strike less than a couple of days later."
"Two things, first as they say in Urdu saat khoon maaf (seven murders pardoned) which the Americans enjoy in this country or in English I guess we can say the Americans have a get out of jail free card...OK, OK, the numbers are negotiable but don't forget Davis was punished, he apparently did what he did in Lahore in the US and is facing serious assault charges."
"He was facing murder charges here, there is a difference between murder and assault."
"Yes, so the moral of the story or the basic premise of our international relations: wait for providence to even the score."
"Don't be facetious."
