"The Prime Minister has spoken."
"And did anyone listen this time around?"
"If you are referring to Babar Awan calling his Prime Minister a liar as far as sending advice to the President on the Accountability Ordinance is concerned then..."
"Look at the word you use? Calling the PM a liar? It is possible that the Prime Minister is so busy appointing people to head various government agencies, including the OGDC chairman and the man engaged in making interesting deals for the hajis that he may simply have advised the President and forgotten about it."
"Don't be facetious. The Prime Minister is a friend of the jiyalas and..."
"Select jiyalas."
"That's not true - he was behind bars for recruiting hundreds of jiyalas if you recall."
"Well, he doesn't think he did anything wrong there! He merely provided jobs and..."
"And was responsible for the state owned entities where he recruited jiyalas to rely on support from our national exchequer or in other words our tax money was spent on recruiting jiyalas which in turn implies a burgeoning deficit, or higher inflation."
"That's too complicated for the simple minded Gilani for Pete's sake!"
"Maybe someone must explain this basic economic theory to him - he..."
"Oh forget that! What did the PM say this time that has you so riled up?"
"He said to the Swiss Ambassador who paid him a farewell call..."
"Ah the Swiss Ambassador of the Swiss cases fame?"
"Right, anyway Gilani said the man had successfully completed his tenure in Pakistan."
"He did, didn't he? The cases remain closed in spite of controversy within Switzerland that cases against Benazir Bhutto and Asif Ali Zardari should not have been closed on merit."
"Don't be facetious. The PM appreciated the emergence of Switzerland as an important trading partner for Pakistan."
"Trading as in banking?"
"No, just trading?"
"So have we developed a taste for Swiss cheese and chocolates? Isn't that what they offer the world other than banking?"
"I don't know what he was thanking him for to be honest."
"Ten to one probably neither did the PM."
