"Our Prime Minister is donating some body part to...."
"The President has already donated several of his body parts to science or is it to the needy..."
"I never said Gilani is ahead of the President in any respect, and need I emphasise that! In all respects the President wins hands down!"
"I was not comparing the two: if I did it would be like comparing apples and oranges..."
"More like apples and peanuts...."
"Are you being facetious?"
"Good heavens no I am merely trying to say that the two belong to a different genre: see apples and oranges are both fruit but peanuts is a different genre from fresh fruit and..."

"Obviously, so they won't pay taxes, they won't donate for flood victims..."
"Hey the President gave around 50,000 dollars for the flood victims from his personal account and the Prime Minister donated a bit from his salary as the Prime Minister...."
"Angelina Jolie gave 100,000..."

"You are persecuting them, and beware Rehman Malik will swoop down on you."

"Yes you are. You must be aware that the PM has suffered a massive loss in recent years and..."
"And you know that how?"
"His wife got more than half of her loan written off from the Agriculture Development Bank of Pakistan..."
"I thought that was two years ago?"
"And you think they are making a profit on their investments now? What with load shedding, high cost of borrowing, law and order issues, and with the..."
"True but I thought they were responsible for these problems."
"Nope it's all due to that Musharraf fellow."
