"So what's up with Zardari sahib?"
"He is fine thank the good Lord... at present he is resident in the US and need I add at no cost to the exchequer - Sindh or federal."
"You see the glass as half full unlike The Khan who sees it as half empty."
"I don't know what you are talking about?"
"Investments in housing by the leadership of our major parties abroad implies they do not have to compel the taxpayers to pay for their accommodation and that's a good thing. But you know The Khan - he refers to the flight of capital whenever anyone mentions residences owned by our leadership abroad ..."
"Two things my friend: first, just because The Khan has a nice former mother in law who lets him stay free of cost in her palatial residences doesn't mean everyone has such former mothers in law. And second just to correct you the tax payers foot the bill for plane parking fees which are substantial even if the leader has a residence in London... Though I agree a provincial government does not foot a foreign tour..."
"You are wrong there. Shahbaz Sharif goes all over the world with or without the elder Sharif on public money and need I remind you our Khattak dancer was in the UK to attend an investment conference when the Bacha Khan University tragedy happened and was summoned back, Qaim Ali Shah is summoned to Dubai and I believe the provincial government pays for his ticket as well as that of other cabinet members, and the Baloch chief minister takes official trips when in parleys with the disgruntled exiled leadership and..."
"Khattak dancer?"
"I like that dance and the Chief Minister of KPK appears to be a dancer to me."
"Can you see The Khan dancing?"
"Most definitely yes, eastern, western but with age he probably prefers to hear qawwalis and music with a beat..."
"And Mian sahib?"
"The Sharif brothers like to sing not dance...and Zardari sahib wants others to dance to his tune all the time."
"So who is the best?"
"I am educated and I support the PhD in politics,"
"I heard that was an honorary degree and after losing the elections it was withdrawn and..."
"Hey, a degree is a degree."
"Hail Raisani!"
