the guy must have the IQ of an idiot, if even JNU morons -- generally the dregs of society -- can stump him.

http://beta.thehindu.com/news/national/article26984.eceRahul finds himself on a sticky wicketPTIRahul Gandhi faced some uncomfortable questions when he went for an interactive session at the Jawaharlal Nehru University, the bastion of Left-leaning students, on Tuesday. "Opposition first," said Mr. Gandhi indicating towards some students who were holding black flags and shouting slogans to oppose his visit. A student asked why the government has given "huge subsidy" to corporate houses while the cost of higher education is going to increase according to the latest HRD circular. "You seem be the follower of Left-ideology," Mr. Gandhi responded. "The UPA government aims at distribution of growth, but the Left only talks of distribution. They have no way to grow." To the discomfort of young Congress leader, a student said, "Rahul bhai, you are a real rajneta. You are speaking so much but answering nothing." "Mr. Gandhi, I am not here to ask you anything related to fake encounters in Manipur, '84 anti-Sikh riots or farmers dying in Vidarbha. You talk of democratisation and participation. Please tell me who chose you as a leader," was a question from one of the students. Mr. Gandhi promptly replied that the questioner had not seen his capability. "I have three options, to sit quietly, to propagate the system or to question the system. I have chosen the last one." At one stage, he said JNU students are considered intelligent but wondered why no one has asked him a question relating to long-term benefits for the country. When asked about the Right to Education Bill by JNUSU general secretary Sucheta De, Mr. Gandhi admitted he had no knowledge about it and would look into the matter. The Congress leader had to pitch in with NSUI leaders to answer some questions. Seeking to silence his critics who question his visits to the houses of Dalits in Uttar Pradesh and Maharashtra, he said people had wholeheartedly welcomed him. "When I go to their houses, they welcome and cuddle me and say you are the first politician who has come to meet us," Mr.. Gandhi said asking why his visits to the houses of the poor were being criticised. "If one politician goes to a Dalit's house, you ask why do you go to a Dalit's house. When thousands of leaders do not visit Dalit houses, you do not ask them why do they not go." "I go to a poor man's house. It is the media which say it is a Dalit or an Adivasi's house." To queries about hierarchal system in politics, including of his lineage, the young Congress leader said "the hierarchal system exists. It is a reality. But, what is the option before me? "I can either propagate the system or change it. I am not the one to propagate it so I am trying to change it. You do not like the system, even I do not like it. We have to work together to change it," he said. The 39-year old Congress general secretary noted at one stage that the students were asking him "difficult" questions but said he was ready to answer them all. |

I think, the newspaper had underreported the seriousness of his idiotism.. :)
Rahulbaba seems to echo the typical of nehru's legacy.. ie, to talk of all things other than the problems intended..
I have observed when he came to tamilnadu too.. the manner he talks, he gives interview, or the way he explains anything, all is very idiotic..
he do not know to speak continuously without break for few minutes..
Compare that to his cousing "Varun Gandhi", who shows the true leadership, both in speaking and in action..
It seems Rahul's chamchas had failed him very miserably in this case.
Aren't they supposed to plan/choreograph everything as to who are gonna ask questions and what are the questions. And if needed rent a crowd to ask only the prepared questions.

The term also has use in a political context, when politicians seed press conferences, 'town hall' meetings, and similar events with an audience that is generally supportive of their political party, while denying access to supporters of opposing political parties.
Are Rahul's chamchas so incompetent that they can't even orchestrate these PR stints?
Is such incompetency inevitable when "negative selection" is the fundamental principle of recruitment.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Negative_selection_%28politics%29
The person on the top of the hierarchy, wishing to remain in power forever, chooses his associates with the prime criterion of incompetence - they must not be competent enough to remove him from power. The associates do the same with those below them in the hierarchy, and the hierarchy is progressively filled with more and more incompetent people.
Great comment.
Negative selection is reserved for the natives. They are intelligent enough to know the colonizer wants sepoys and, thus, they will never tire from promoting the foreign agenda with utmost zeal. Thus, this idiotboy Rahul dutifully escorted Miliband on a poverty tour in Amethi and gave his "support" (thumbprint) to the nuke "deal".
When possible, they will also "positively select" the colonizer: Rajiv succeeded in this while Nehru failed with Edwina. With time, they seem to be getting better with the positive selection!!!!!!!
