Partly Facetious: Imran huge disappointment
"We have so much to learn from others."
"As a matter of principle, I would agree with you, I mean we only stop learning when we are dead and..."
"How do you know that?'
"OK, I stand corrected but you know what I meant."
"Indeed, perhaps if you had said we stop acquiring earthly knowledge once the spirit leaves our body..."
"Oh brother!"
"Why?"
"Earthly knowledge, spirit leaves the body! What you mean is carnal knowledge!"
"Hey, we live in the Islamic Republic of Pakistan where crime may be on the rise and terrorists running rampant but we are very sensitive about what someone says while we sit in rain water filled homes without electricity...."
"I agree, and I am disappointed in Imran Khan, I would have thought he would have kept his mouth shut, and that itself would have brought change into our politics..."
"Fazlur Rehman started it!"
"How old are these two guys? Six?"
"Right, but you know when I said we could learn a lot from others I was referring to Berlusconi... I mean Gilani must know by now that immunity ends when you leave the office..."
"I am not sure what Gilani knows....the four year term that he completed as prime minister has gone straight to his head. He makes such ridiculous statements..."
"He was promoted out of turn if you will with the sad demise of Benazir Bhutto..."
"Right, but we need to speak with one voice is what I meant when I said we must learn from others. I mean we have the Prime Minister in Saudi Arabia saying that there would be a high cost if we build an Iran Pakistan gas pipeline and we have the President in Iran promising that the pipeline would be built."
"President Zardari is not in a position to make any promises anymore. Maybe he went to embarrass Nawaz Sharif or perhaps to tell Pakistanis that had we voted for his party we would have the pipeline or indeed maybe he wants to alienate Saudi Arabia and the US from the new government..."
"Whatever the reason I hope there are no further presidential visits from now on, without the approval of the cabinet."
"President Zardari will be gone in less than a month and Mamnoon sahib is unlikely to do anything."
"But we need to take action for the future - action not based on personalities but in adherence to the principles of democracy."
