Partly Facetious : Zardari sahib's sense of humour

31 Jul, 2019

"There is one thing that I have always liked about Zardari sahib."
"One thing only?!"
"I am not a Zardi and the reason is what I see in Karachi and the rest of Sindh..."
"And are you a Khanzadah or Nawala?"
"OK I concede the point you are trying to make..."
"About time, I mean all the irrefutable evidence against anyone and the people of the area would still vote for that person..."
"Zardari sahib lost support in Punjab and other areas except Sindh and that is because of his marriage into the Bhutto family and..."
"You can say what you want but as I began to say the one thing that I have always liked about Zardari sahib is not his governance or his policy of reconciliation or indeed his legal defence that is focused on delays rather than..."
"Oh for Pete's sake, you want to give the guy a compliment why do you feel the need to engage in criticism first, I mean are you planning to join The Khan's party?"
"Right, what I have always liked about Zardari sahib is his sense of humour, the prosecutors wanted remand for a couple of weeks and Zardari sahib said give them remand for longer and..."
"Right and you remember when both Zardari sahib and Nawaz Sharif were in the same jail Zardari sahib sent him flowers and sweets."
"But Nawaz Sharif has no sense of humour and the former First Daughter has even less of a sense of humour and excuse me but The Khan used to have a sense of humour but he has lost it since he became the country's prime minister and..."
"That's because the situation is so dire - politics, economics, foreign affairs, I mean you name it and we are in bad shape..."
"Trump likes The Khan and that's a big thing."
"I heard President Xi is not that enamoured of The Khan, his reception when he went to China last was less than Chinese protocol for a head of government and..."
"That's because Trump understands about Madina ki riyast while President Xi doesn't."
"Don't be facetious."
