Partly Facetious: Khan needs a spiritualist

15 Feb, 2018

"There is no way, so says the Khan that the Man Who Shall Remain Nameless will be a member of the caretaker government who are selected by the two largest parties in any assembly, provincial or national, to take care of government till the next elections and the new government."
"Could be the old government?"
"I don't think so, first, whatever our Lisping Lollipop Prime Minister may hope for he is unlikely to be the next prime minister even though I assume Nawaz Sharif and Daughter reckon his ambitions would be easier to contain than say the First Uncle's. And secondly it would be the new government because the caretakers would be between this administration and the next".
"I agree, and that's not what I was implying when I said could be the old government. I was actually referring to the old caretakers being reappointed."
"I don't get it."
"Well, in the centre Zardari sahib and Nawaz Sharif would have to agree on who would lead and who would become a member of the federal cabinet. Need I add these two men did agree on the Man Who Shall Remain Nameless as the chief minister Punjab in 2013 and may well agree on him becoming, perhaps, the caretaker Prime Minister and from what he said about himself namely that he is like a dog's tail that will never ever straighten the guy will accept and very readily and..."
"I am not sure the Man Who Shall Remain Nameless ever referred to himself as a crooked dog's tail."
"I do recall him saying it, but then again maybe I misheard but the fact is that as the Khan has antagonized and continues to antagonize both Nawaz Sharif and Zardari sahib they may get their revenge by appointing this guy. And that is why the Pakistan Super League is being held now well before the caretaker set up is in place and..."
"Talk about conspiracy theories! But could the Khan be convinced to tone down his rhetoric - I mean same-o same five years down the line is boring for the people..."
"Maybe if a spiritualist..."
"Don't be facetious, but you know his opponents have not changed their rhetoric either."
"Not true: Nawaz Sharif's why was I turned out of the Prime Minister's House is less than a year old, Zardari sahib's refusal to assist Nawaz Sharif is about a year old, and the two may change their minds and agree to appoint The Man Who Shall Remain Nameless as a caretaker..."
"Oops, the Khan needs a spiritualist badly - he was wrong about selecting Ali Tareen, he was wrong about..."
"Don't be facetious."
