"So the US has flawed policies and China and Russia should play their due role, or so said the Minister of Defence."
"This statement while our chief of army staff is in the US!"
"To be fair he did say General Raheel's trip to the US was successful. But anyway, remember that Khwaja Asif is the gentleman who, to put it mildly, doesn't really represent our defence forces and his invites to their functions are restricted to when the Prime Minister is invited."
"See that's the beauty of Nawaz Sharif's appointments. Give the portfolio to a loyalist least suited for it."
"Don't be facetious - he has also appointed Ahsan Iqbal to head the planning ministry and need I add the guy has 40/40 eye sight."
"It's 20/20 my friend - that the best you can have."
"Right, and my point is Iqbal's sight or vision encompasses a lot many years than the five year tenure of a political government. Vision 2025, Vision..."
"It shows the guy is savvy enough to blame lack of performance on those who derail democracy and..."
"Dear me! Not derailing democracy charge, again!"
"Hey, you are a Pakistani and the ground realities must be taken into consideration, don't define democracy the way the West does, define democracy the way we do, democracy requires Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif to apologise to Chaudhry Aitzaz Ahsan on behalf of Chaudhry Nisar after the latter stated that he has proof of corruption of Chaudhry Aitzaz Ahsan and the apology gets the Prime Minister not only hours of sitting in parliament getting bored but also getting only generic support in return..."
"Oh dear, that's all over - victory Aitzaz Ahsan, loss of face Chaudhry Nisar."
"See that proves my point..."
"That the politics of muk makaa have always favoured the PPP and that is the cleverness of Zardari sahib?"
"Well, my point is that the two Chaudhrys must have some common roots don't you think."
"If they do then they have long cut those roots carefully and completely..."
"No seriously this shows to me that Punjabis don't get on well together. We must learn from the Pushtuns and the Sindhis and..."
"You are promoting ethnicity?"
"But in a good way if you know what I mean - support each other and maybe just maybe Punjab will be able to develop. Mian sahib must remember that while he, as per 2013 election results, got 1.45 crore votes but he must remember that Khan's party got half of that number which is significant."
"That's not the way our politicians think."
"I know."
