Partly Facetious : PM receives spiritual guidance

"Our Prime Minister receives spiritual guidance and need I add that keeps him in line."
Published March 22, 2019

"Our Prime Minister receives spiritual guidance and need I add that keeps him in line."
"In line? Come on! You know that The Khan had already abandoned the excesses of his youth and became a devout Muslim..."
"I don't think you understood what I was saying."
"Explain."
"Spiritual guidance is distinct from being spiritual - guidance can be provided by a pir and the term is gender neutral as far as I am concerned..."
"Excuse me, but in our language there is a female version of the profession..."
"It's not a profession, it's a calling and let me finish. A pir provides spiritual guidance to his/her followers and that may explain The Khan's focus on ushering an administration that seeks to duplicate the purity of the government during our Prophet's days in Medina and..."
"But then there are days when he cites modern Western secular democratic norms as worthy of emulation."
"Hey, is a man after all, anyway the opposite of spiritual is materialism and that is a no-no for The Khan."
"Here too, let me point out that The Khan and his administration is implementing policies that make the rich richer - remember the economic philosophy that wealth begets wealth and..."
"That is true, but I guess you are referring to the current state of the economy that is simply making us more and more indebted..."
"You unerringly say things which make me forget what I intended to say which is that the police did exactly what it did when The Khan administration was not in power with the Minister of Information belittling the numbers gathered to express solidarity with the Zardaris - father and son..."
"And the Holy Ghost."
"That being?"
"The Omni Group."
"I will not be side-tracked. Anyway, the numbers were dismissed as too few, the onus of jailing the Zardaris' supporters was placed on the supporters' violence and my question is why is The Khan doing precisely what his opponents did against his followers when he was not the Prime Minister? If the police had not been there I bet you anything the PPP would not have had the coverage it did the entire day..."
"Power changes you, I mean when out of power even hunting the endangered houbara bustard is very important and when in power, not at all."
"Ha ha, that is true but a pir can provide..."
"I give up."
