Partly Facetious: They have a one-man constituency

"You come with me, you stay here, come along sir, and you go to hell"
"I don't know what you are referring to, but I was devastated at what happened in Karachi and the entire country is in mourning today and..."
"Except our politicians... and need I add the food being visibly consumed by our leadership at prime minister's luncheon on PTV filmed after what happened in Karachi was extremely upsetting."
"I was referring to Team Nawaz Sharif as he landed in Karachi after eating a good meal. The Prime Minister opted to take Khawaja Asif but not the relevant man Chaudhry Nisar, he took Zardari sahib and not Imran Khan and need I add Imran Khan has emerged as the second largest national vote gaining party while Zardari party's (not in Sindh though) successes are shrinking with each new election."
"I know the answer to these queries. Zardari sahib knows how to behave while in opposition while the Khan doesn't because he has never been in power in the centre and lost it. Chaudhry Nisar doesn't get on well with the Team NS and the reason is that he is not a darbari (courtier) in the true sense and the darbaris are not releasing funds for the National Action Plan because any success in that regard may translate into raising the profile of Chaudhry Nisar and that's a no-no."
"Why does it all matter? You know and I know that thankfully the decisions relating to law and order are being taken elsewhere and these guys are merely getting mileage on television and..."
"But there is a need to better monitor their profiles on national television. And the food was served by the PM at our tax payers' expense to convince the repeatedly voiced concerns of the opposition that the China Pakistan Economic Corridor has not been altered to benefit Punjab and..."
"But the guy who made the presentation, the man with an impossibly long run vision Ahsan Iqbal, has made previous presentations and no one believed him before."
"He must get his eyes lazered to truly get long run vision, and besides a presentation while being served good food changes perceptions!"
"Don't be facetious."
