"William Barr, the US Attorney General, a Trump nominee of course, has been held in contempt of congress."
"I don't think that's fair - the guy did not reveal the un-redacted Mueller report and when asked to do so he requested Trump to use his executive privilege to stop him releasing the report. Now I ask you who is in contempt of what?"
"I assume you mean neither Trump nor Barr is in contempt, and I am not using the word contempt as in disrespect because probably both men thoroughly disrespect a Democrat -led congress; so you are a closet Trump supporter?"
"He provides comic relief and I need that desperately these days! I, like my compatriots, am struggling to make ends meet each month, in my country everyone who is anyone who can change the value of each rupee I earn, is busy hurling insults at some one or the other..."
"I like the Rana the best. He can be abusive in such an understated manner - understated not in the words he uses but understated in the manner of delivery; he does not raise his voice whatever the provocation, uses the same tenor as when he asks for the newspaper in the morning..."
"I don't think he reads the newspapers - news makers rarely read newspapers, The Khan does not read the papers though he watches television..."
"Don't be facetious...anyway Barr is held in contempt of congress and that is supposed to be big news there!"
"It is; I reckon this is the first time that has happened though the success of this reprimand would depend on the penalty if any."
"Compliance always depends on the penalty. In Pakistan all heads of government have displayed contempt of parliament except Gilani who displayed contempt of..."
"Hey back off, he is a pir, a spiritual guide to thousands I think, and you don't take on a pir ever!"
"Gilani took the necklace home that was given by President Erdogan's wife with the instruction to sell it and use the money for those afflicted with natural disaster at the time...he returned it when asked by the subsequent government so I say its contempt of..."
"If he valued it and paid that amount to those afflicted then you know it's allowed so no contempt - either change the rules or...I don't know..."
"Or change the prime minister - that is easier in Pakistan than changing the rules."
"I can't accuse you of being facetious - you are so right."
