Musharraf Wants to Be a Lalu
It looks like General Musharraf wants to be more than a dictator or a supreme ruler of Pakistan. Now he actually wants to be a Lalu Prasad type of tin god. He's now fielding his wife for the presidency of Pakistan. Maybe she and our Deputy Railway Minister Rabri Devi can get together and create a Lahore Train Service, to ship in the RDX faster. Pakistan's leaders will never repatriate the Biharis, but they do aspire to embrace Bihari politics as their own.

ROTFL - also instead of fodder scan there will be a U235 scam!
Meanwhile my favorite world leader has some choice words to say
Drop your silly Atlantic solidarity and support us, Putin tells West
He also warned the West to stop giving Russia blanket lectures on democracy. “We will participate in any debate with our partners, but, if they want us to do something, they must be specific. If they want us to resolve Kosovo, let’s talk Kosovo. If they are worried about nuclear programmes in Iran, let’s talk about Iran, rather than talking about democracy in Russia.”
Neither would he take lectures over Russia imposing higher gas charges on Ukraine after years of Western preaching about the need for market prices. “If the West wants to support the Orange movement, let them pay for it. Do you think we are idiots?”
Hear Hear
Mr Putin was also directly critical of the US. "I don't interfere in your politics, please don't interfere in ours," he told a Washington academic referring to US funding for opposition groups and human rights organisations in Russia. He said independence was a very "expensive" thing in the modern world and only a few big countries such as India, China and Russia could afford it.
"Unfortunately, in some eastern European countries defence ministers are cleared by the US ambassador," before they are appointed, he said. "You know how decisions in Nato are taken," he said, hinting that the United States dominates the alliance undemocratically.
