Partly Facetious: Nawaz doesn't like to learn lessons

"Where there are ideological similarities political parties do form a joint platform."
Published March 1, 2016

"Where there are ideological similarities political parties do form a joint platform."
"If you are accusing the ZS deal then..."
"ZS?"
"Zardari-Sharif deal..."
"And why is Zardari before S? Does that mean you are a Zardi?"
"Yes I am and when you refer to their deal you can refer to SZ because you are a nawala."
"If you are trying to make me feel small then it's not gonna happen. We are a highly politicised country and I say this in spite of the many martial laws we have suffered under and in spite of..."
"That explains why the status quo parties remain, and God bless Z because after he completed his five year term and single-handedly broke the linkage between victimisation as a major vote gainer instead of performance."
"I guess, though Mian sahib has learnt few lessons right? He and his B team are doing exactly what they did when last in power..."
"B team? I thought his A team!"
"A team is the immediate family, B team is the extended family, C team is those who are given tickets and make power possible and D team is all those rank and file..."
"Right, but Mian sahib doesn't like to learn lessons - not lessons he should have learned during his own power years and certainly not lessons he should have learned from the Zardari years."
"What could he have learned from Zardari years?"
"That the bureaucrats of today are not like those of yester years. You give them an exalted position and they can turn around and begin to work with due diligence and you may become a casualty - look at the NAB head..."
"I am sorry to say but this namak harami (not being loyal to the one who appoints you) began with Zardari sahib's rein...."
"Oh shush, anyway when I referred to ideological bed fellows I was referring to Maulana Fazlur Rehman and the Jamaat-e-Islami head honcho urging Pakistani Muslim husbands to unite - they have nothing to lose but the whips they use on their wives!"
"There you go and need I remind you what Shahbaz Sharif has done the Khan cannot do...due to the coalition with JI."
"But Khan, reportedly a victim of domestic abuse, showed his superior knowledge of Islam: divorce by text or was it email."
"I give up."
