"Heavyweights have now entered the negotiations with the maulvis creating horrendous traffic jams in Islamabad for the 16th day..."
"The heavyweights as in who?"
"Well, Ahsan Iqbal provides continuity..."
"Well, that's a disturbing statement! Continuity means status quo, and we have already entered the third week of the dharna."
"Don't be facetious! Did you not hear the fellow say that Pakistan is not a banana republic and if the Rangers don't let him go to the accountability court he would resign! I mean that requires courage in this country and... "
"Excuse me, but in political science a banana republic is a country where there is political uncertainty, oh and what's with these PML-N MNAs not attending the national assembly session when Nawaz Sharif's inalienable right to be president of the party is being challenged and I am referring to his right to lead the party for after all N stands for Nawaz and not Nincompoops..."
"Who are you referring to as nincompoops? The ubiquitous establishment or..."
"I ain't going to say, and as my future leader, Maryam says daddy and she are exercising restraint in naming those who want a minus one formula which will never ever..."
"Don't be facetious."
"Anyway, a banana republic is defined as one where not only political uncertainty prevails but there is heavy reliance on exports of one product and in this country we have the cotton and its value added sector, sugar courtesy the sugar barons and leather courtesy the animals and..."
"Don't be facetious."
"OK, but could someone tell the Visionary that a banana republic cannot be defined as an Interior Minister being disallowed to enter a court in which he is neither a witness nor an accused."
"OK, but who else is the heavy weight negotiating with the maulvis?"
"Rana Ji from Lahore."
"You know whenever I see his moustache, I remember the Indian song Rana Ji zera maaf karna (Rana Ji please forgive me) just in case I have said or done anything that he may take exception to."
"Surprise, surprise Rana Ji is playing a rather subdued role in the negotiations for after all what happens in Islamabad stays in Islamabad and cannot be laid at his doorstep. I mean technically it's the Visionary who must take blame."
"I see."
