    This is one of irony of the nation that we don’t have that calibre of leadership that can deal with the crises we are facing at the moment. Neither it can lead us to any better place than this. At the End it will be like
    gya dor-e-zardari gya
    tamasha dikha ker maddari gya

    We had certain expectations from a political government:
    1). A political govt would be able to see that we can not afford align ourselves closely with an american war, because it would understand peoples feelings about that war.

    2. A political govt would be able to stop american aggression against our people whether it is drones or physical aggression.

    3. A political govt would use american aid fairly and properly, and take americans fully on board about full economic impact of its war on terror on Pakistani economy.

    4. A political govt would stay within constitution when dealing with american demands.

    5. All such aspects would be debated within parliament first and only then with external partners.

    It seems Zardari is happy to play Musharraf II and is not playing his role according to expectations of people of Pakistan.

    Interesting interview but honestly speaking, it hurts to see him on hot seat …

  • Asim Sattar said:

    I think Musharraf and Zardari should get some award from Bush just like Salman Rushdie got the award from British Queen for achieving their objectives.

    In Ref : to the interview Zardari Vs. MSNBC

    This shows the lack of depth and of understanding on part of Zardari- and Zardari’s handlers messed up again by not proper briefing and preperation.
    Of course the lady who was asking questions would have been made into minced meat by Musharraf.

    Zardari will, however learn and he will handle himself well as he goes along. That is the positive and perhaps the only positive in this equation

    Pakistan’s president Zardari gushes over Sarah Palin

    Sarah Palin’s meeting in New York this morning with Pakistani President Asif Ali Zardari — part of her crash course in foreign affairs — began innocuously enough.

    “So nice to meet you,” she told him, according to the pool report filed by CNN, and he responded in kind.

    Simple, civil salutations. But Zardari soon steered the conversation in a direction that would make Campbell Brown, the CNN anchor who Tuesday called John McCain’s campaign aides sexist, cringe and cry chauvinism. Here is the exchange:

    ZARDARI: “You are even more gorgeous than you are on the (inaudible).”

    PALIN: “You are so nice. Thank you.”

  • Casuri said:

    ZARDARI: “Now I know why the whole of America is crazy about you.”

    [A Zardari handler tells the two to shake hands again for the cameras.]

    PALIN: “I’m supposed to pose again.”

    ZARDARI: “If he’s insisting, I might hug.”

    At that point, the pool reporter was escorted from the room.

    This should be fun to watch! a live display of an illiterate buffoon who has no real feelings for any thing except money.

    Has any body noticed how Zardari always repeats Mery piyari behnow and then he remembers he has to say piyaray bahiyo as well?

    The guy is a creep. No wonder BB couldn’t stand him.

  • Adnan Arshad Mansoori said:

    The real fact of the matter wherein Zardari met with Bush ONE to ONE meeting therein this was ordered/resolution passed by BUSH Admn’n., “Control your ISI Personnel as we want to kill further your innocent children, women, old age people simultaneouly wish to destroy their home and do not cry out against these attacks/killing how much you require in form of AID AMOUNT?”

  • muntazir said:

    here is a link to what Casuri sahib is talking about.

    I can say I am ashamed, what else would you expect from some one who crawled out of a gutter?

    If it was the average Pakistani he would have remembered all the dead Muslim children men and women of Iraq, Afghanistan and now Pakistan before he would gush at some one like that.

    @Bookieawam

    very shocking video, i am forced to comment on it after watching just 32 seconds of it.

    If you look at Zardaris body language, you can see he is uncomfortable for reason that could be many but most importantly notice how he roles his eyes and looks up to jog his memory. He is trying to recall the lines that he had learned. This is further evident towards the end of the first statment when his tone goes completely flat and he resembles a student who has just completed the recitation of a paragraph infront of an examiner.

    This daku feels nothing for Pakistan nor Pakistanis.

  • muntazir said:

    a working link of Zardar & Palin video.

    Notice how he doesn’t let go of the hand quickly. almost looks as if he wants to drag her towards him.

    dirty pervert.
