"What is Zardari sahib's legacy, do you reckon?"
"The Bhutto Zardaris!"
"But that is the same o, same o, since Z A Bhutto in the late 1960s to early 1970s..."
"Those were the Bhuttos, now we have the Bhutto Zardaris."
"Ah I see, but if truth be told biracial kids go through a hard time as often one side of the family makes' racist comments about the other..."
"Hmm, but the Bhuttos are no more and the Zardaris are..."
"Excuse me, but the Zardaris - brother and sister, have also disappeared from the scene and we have only the Bhutto Zardaris and need I add there is no leader, including cabinet members, who are talking as much sense as Bilawal..."
"If I recall correctly Asif Ali Zardari got my vote in 2008 for saying just the right things, but as we learnt later there is a difference between saying and action."
"OK, but I reckon Zardari sahib's legacy is the policy of reconciliation and however much one may have ridiculed it during his tenure as the president the fact is that we look at those times with nostalgia given the state of affairs today."
"Hmmm, and what is Nawaz Sharif's legacy?"
"Maryam Nawaz."
"Ha, ha, don't be facetious."
"Ishaq Dar and his appallingly bad economic policies that left this country struggling..."
"OK, so Dar was his deputy but surely The Sharif must have learnt by now that it was disastrous to appoint Dar as the finance minister and perhaps he won't make the same mistake again."
"In your dreams, The Sharif's legacy is to make the same mistake again and again and again to prove that it wasn't a mistake in the first place..."
"And The Khan what do you reckon his legacy will be?"
"Of spirituality by calling on.....on non-human powers and exercising..."
"Exercise is what The Khan loves to do."
"Don't change the subject anyway Zardari sahib relied on spiritual guidance too - remember he would follow instructions to go to be near the sea and return to the mountains."
"That was after the sacrifice of two goats, almost daily!"
"Don't be facetious, I was going to say after he was provided spiritual guidance and need I add Nawaz Sharif also relied on spiritual guidance."
"So you reckon spiritual guidance is part of the terms of reference of all civilian heads of government."
"Given they are so unwilling to take any other guidance..."
"Don't be facetious."
