There are abundant stories about Rahul Gandhi on the internet that the mainstream media will never report. Full of ass-licking reporters and journalists that our MSM is filled with it is only the small bloggers and passionate patriots who report the stories of this wonderboy called Rahul Gandhi.
It is perhaps the greatest tragedy for this nation to get prime ministers like Manmohan Singh. His utterances on various issues or silence on issues of significance makes me wonder if we really deserved something as bad as this. His latest on the Kashmir issue offering "autonomy" is one such foolish statement. The Congress is virtually leading up to the path where Kashmir will soon be an Islamic state. That there is already something like Article 370 in the constitution, displacement of millions of Pandits from that state, and TV channels and immoral intellectuals promoting the cause of separatists is beyond this prime minister. Instead of coming down firmly in a war-like approach towards the separatists this constant talk of dialogue is nothing but a sure recipe for disaster. It has been fashionable for Congress to coin slogans like "Garibi Hatao", "Aam Aadmi" and so on, when the greatest gift to the nation by the party has been Corruption! Corruption in every form possible, from politics, businesses, the Babus, and even to the Commonwealth Games. Nothing has been spared.
It is in this context of pandering to muslims, vote-bank politics, destruction of everything that stems from the age-old Hindu values of tolerance and peace that the thought that the Congress' future prime minister will one day be Rahul Gandhi. The man is the biggest disaster in the making for India. Except for playing the drama-queen, like Indira Gandhi once used to do, in going to villages or places and dressing up like tribals, having a token meal with a poor family, or running around local trains in Bombay (with a minister carrying his footwear) to the inconvenience of other commuters, mundane speeches telling tribals how he saved their village, what does the man really have for substance?
Lets start with his education! He is supposedly M.Phil, Computer Scientist, Harvard Graduate, St. Stephen's alumni. With such academic background I wonder why he isn't in NASA instead of being a lousy politician. Or probably, as many investigative reports would frequently suggest, he is not more than 12th Class pass. There is nothing in his utterances that would even vaguely suggest that he has gone through some form of higher education. Nothing wrong with that. You don't need a great IQ to be in Indian politics. Well, even his father didn't get through Cambridge and returned with an au pair for a wife. His mother is often reported to have studied at Cambridge. I wonder why Cambridge University never takes these fallacies as an insult to them! Still, lets give the man a pat on the back, he is definitely an improvement upon various politicians who have never got past 7th Class in school. And, I don't for a moment believe that formal graduation has anything to do with anyone's wisdom or character. This is where Rahul Gandhi is suspect. The least I would expect of a future prime minister is wisdom and character.
He is reported to have travelled to the USA on an Italian passport with his Latino girl friend and detained at an airport by the FBI in 2001 with a bag-full of dollars. Surprisingly, the issue was reportedly hushed up by the then NDA government, when it should have conducted a full-scale investigation of where the money came from, what its purpose was and why the FBI had detained him. Maybe this runs in the family, his uncle Sanjay Gandhi (then Sanjiv Gandhi) was once arrested by the London police for a petty car theft. If these are rumours then Rahul Gandhi would do well to stand up and provide a concrete and conclusive explanation. However, it doesn't stop with that.
There are abundant reports on the internet suggesting Rahul was involved in a gang-rape in Amethi in December 2006. The police are said to have hushed up the case and no FIR was ever registered. Any ordinary man who's aware of a rape case being reported against him would immediately work and go all out to have his name cleared if he was innocent. No such thing by Rahul Gandhi yet to my knowledge. There are also reports that immediately after the Bombay carnage of 26/11 our heir apparent was partying away in Delhi in the first week of December. This is supposedly the man who shares the grief of the common man and villagers. It is also our big misfortune that we have a lame media that gleefully keeps off all such news from people. Instead, our media never fail to fall over each other in covering Rahul Gandhi's tours and giving ample air time to his stupid and childish utterances. This is also the man who, while nearing 40, went on a "Discover India" trip. And the one who reportedly went on a trip to Afghanistan because "he was bored in Delhi"!
That Rahul Gandhi has neither wisdom nor character is beyond any doubt to me. Where does this come from though? His family has a history of perpetrating unwanted miseries on India. I have nothing against Jawaharlal Nehru, but cannot help thinking he nearly turned India into a communist state, repressed free enterprise, compromised Kashmir, had a flawed China-policy leading to the 1962 war and defeat by China, who grabbed parts of our land and are still in possession of those, fathered the now redundant Non-Aligned movement. All this only indicates lack of vision in a leader of young democracy. Of course, Nehru is also the man to have caused the perpetual imposition of "reservations" in this country, one of the most divisive policies ever.
Then we had the infamous Emergency imposed by Indira Gandhi and following her death the slaughter of Sikhs by Congressmen who still roam free. Amid the tragedy, Rahul's father Rajiv Gandhi, could only come up with a stupid statement "when a great tree falls, the earth is bound to shake" (or something to that effect). To Indira Gandhi's credit one can say she was at least bold and courageous. I see nothing of that sort in Rahul Gandhi.
What about his father Rajiv Gandhi? The man came to parliament with the biggest ever majority and the only thing he used it was to reverse a Supreme Court order in the Shah Bano case with a constitutional ammendment. An ammendment that deprives muslim women of rights available to other women. Yet, this party is supposedly the champion of muslims. It doesn't end there. Rajiv Gandhi is alleged to be involved in the big Bofors scandal, also involving Sonia Gandhi's relatives, and letting off Warren Anderson in the Bhopal Gas tragedy. In short, Rajiv Gandhi was another prince who was just as stupid as his son is. Yet instead of being ashamed of such a prime minister we have an unending number of roads, airports, bridges being named after the man.
With all that in his blood it is too much to expect Rahul Gandhi to be an epitome of wisdom or character. I would not be surprised if on a thorough medical examination he is found to be mentally retarded. Such are his utterances and behavioral patterns. I am a patriot as much as any other Indian but I must woefully state that it has to be a nation of idiots and fools, that deserves a prime minister like Rahul Gandhi. Sonia Gandhi was wise enough to realise that her ignorance would be thoroughly exposed if she had ever taken that office when she had the opportunity. I am not sure Rahul Gandhi even has the slight wisdom his mother had. I can only hope the Congress party disappears soon if their only hope for the future is this moron. When he opens his mouth I cannot help being reminded of Moose in the 'Archie' comics. Duh ?

Tainted? Have a chat with Barkha Dutt !
While surfing TV channels a few days ago I found Suresh Kalmadi chatting with Barkha Dutt of NDTV. He was painfully explaining that the CWGOC had done nothing wrong and he himself was in the clear. I could not help wondering why is it that Congressmen or Muslims run to Barkha Dutt to give an interview to explain their position even when the actual accusations or expose of some misdeed has come from some other channel. In this case, it would appear that it was TIMES NOW that was airing the CWG scam day in and out with repetitive cacophony. But Mr. Kalmadi surprisingly found that the right person to give all the answers is to an NDTV journalist. Of course, Barkha Dutt. She, the one, who helps soften the blow for all those crooked Congressmen and other crooked celebrities.
Not long ago we had the "pakistan-is-a-peaceful-neighbour" Shahrukh Khan doing interviews with her explaining how the Shivsena had targeted him wrongly for his stupid utterances. I am no supporter of Shivsena and despise them for their stupid behaviour. But when someone like Shahrukh Khan is in trouble, who does he run to? Barkha Dutt of course. She's the only person who can help tainted people put across the truth to the nation. Especially when it comes to congressmen and muslims.
I am perhaps getting ahead of myself. But then there was this "happy-tongue" pseudo-secular called Shashi Tharoor who ran into trouble. While all the media was exposing his crooked deals in connection with the IPL, who does he run to? Barkha Dutt, of course. Who else would give him the complete opportunity to present his side of the story and show how innocent he was and did nothing wrong. Only Barkha Dutt and NDTV.
I would be offending NDTV if I keep maintaining that Barkha Dutt is the only saviour of tainted souls. Wait, there is Prannoy Roy! At the height of the Global Warming scam, which is truly a major scam of the century, he was delighted to present Rajendra Pachauri with the chance to present his case as having done nothing wrong. So servantile was the interview Prannoy conducted with Pachauri, one would think this global warming and climate messiah was actually a spiritual leader and not the scamster he was portrayed as.
So I was least surprised when lately Suresh Kalmadi ran to Barkha Dutt and NDTV instead of the other channels to present his case. So the lesson is simple, if you are tainted, run to NDTV, especially if you are in the congress or happen to be a chrislamist.

The (Twisted) Times Of India - The "Aman" Preacher
I couldn't help laughing at the Times View in today's edition of the TOI. The preacher of "Aman Ki Asha" now tells us that there cannot be peace with Pakistan when the 26/11 masterminds are "..preaching murderous hate against India. There can't be any closure of 26/11 until there is justice" Bravo !
Here are questions to the TOI. Were they not preaching hate when the AKA campaign was launched? Were they not dodging actions on 26/11 when the AKA campaign was being run? And you wanted our children to send them "Love-Kerchiefs" ?? Pakistan is a country desperately in need of toilet paper like TOI, not our love-kerchiefs.
It does not take great intelligence to imagine what kind of brains the TOI employs to have run the scam called "Aman Ki Asha". One can only conclude that there must be ulterior motives and profits at stake, apart from the desire for some silly awards for such a campaign.
Yours truly has written over and over again that we need not desire war with Pakistan but there simply cannot be peace with them, unless they initiate it and deeply desire it. India should not be making any moves at all. It is impossible to make peace with a failed state like Pakistan simply because it exists only on a map and has no political foundation. It is hard to imagine that with all the experienced journalists that the TOI may be employing they could first come up with the stupid campaign of "Aman Ki..." and then now this same journal sermonizes us on what should be the basis for peace talks. Obviously, the "AKA" nonsense wouldn't be the idea of journalists, I have to presume that would be the marketing geniuses in the TOI.
This reality of no-peace-possible with Pakistan is evident to anyone with a decent common sense. Unfortunately, it is the Indian media that consistently displays an acute lack of any common sense. One can easily fathom why politicians behave stupidly..it is in their genes. Why else would India still send a Krishna to Pakistan? Maybe they aren't done with appeasing our muslims yet. Krishna should have retired long ago. And anyone who has watched Qureshi even once would know that the man with the perennial ugly scowl on his face, is matched only by his own foul-mouthed tongue.
India doesn't need Pakistan. It is time we put this nonsense called peace-talks in cold storage for a long long time and get on with our business of running our nation. We must deal with terrorism with the specific understanding and knowledge that Pak will continue to sponsor it forever. Anything else will only be as foolish as the Times of India.

Indian Media's Top 5 Prayers....
I have always wondered what army men think like. Someone once said "soldiers pray for peace, but hope for war"..Not sure if I got that right. But yes, it is not difficult to believe that a real soldier wouldn't like to go through an entire career in the armed forces without having faced a single battle or a greater war. This has often made me wonder what would journalists and media persons be praying and hoping for. I spoke to some journalists and here's a countdown of a typical Indian media-person's top-5 prayers:
5. Natural Calamities : A flood, a drought, cyclones or earthquakes. "Give me any of these anytime".. said one journalist. This would make their day and many more. Journalists of the "bollywood" bent of mind take a particular delight in such situations. It gives them the opportunity to put on display their histrionic skills and the hope of winning some awards. Don't be surprised if you still find breaks advertising some chocolate brand during a flood, or Purvankara homes in Bangalore during an earthquake report. Scavengers can't be expected to have any sensitivity after all.
4. Celebrity Rape/Murder: Viveka Bajajee has been in the news lately for her suicide. It is only through the media that I learned that she was a model. But she has been in the news for a few days now. Or a Jessica Lall type murder which drives our media to tears and activism. Then there are people like Sagarika Ghose who question why Ram Jetmalani defends Manu Sharma, leaving no stone unturned to expose her own poverty when it comes to understanding the law of the land. Hold on, there is the Noida murder of Arushi when the media went on a speculation-spree of adulterous affairs, spoilt children, even called in psychologists to analyse the problems of modern youth.
3. Elections: It is an accepted fact that many TV channels and newspapers across the world have political persuasions. Nothing though will surpass our media in concocting deceptive polls to predict election outcomes. Among these the father of such polls has to be Prannoy Roy and NDTV. Election after election after election their manipulated polls attempt to influence people. The unbridled joy that the media experiences during an election is unsurpassed. Lately, they have added another dimension - "paid reporting" and politicians can get good coverage if they pay well. And then there are those investigative reporters who take us through what Laloo eats, where Rahul goes to pee, and how Priyanka manages her pedicure during election campaigns.
2. Hindu Bashing : Newspapers like Times, Hindu and of course the many English TV channels will be constantly on the look out for some stray incidents involving Hindus to coin new phrases. Some popular ones are "Saffron Terror", "Communal Forces" and so on. They can't wait to rub their hands in delight for some Swami to be caught on tape and then go on a Hindu-bashing spree. That there are Paedophiles in the Vatican or Churches or there is Islamic terrorism all around is a small matter. If the phrase Islamic Terror exists then those are not muslims, but if a stray incident involving a Hindu comes around then its an absolute delight for our journalists. It is natural that many in the public have started wondering if the major media houses have been funded by "Chrislamists".
1. Terrorist Attack : Nothing brings out the tremendous reporting and emotive skills of our journalists like a good terrorist attack. One has to just youtube videos of 26/11 and see channels like NDTV, Times Now, CNN-IBN, Aaj Tak fall over each other in dramatizing such tragic events. Mind you, they will die to be the first and show footage, reminding you over and over again that these are exclusive. One blogger went to the extent of writing..."Barkha Dutt & NDTV..A Terrorist's Dream Come True" ..I think he needs to add all the channels to his blog. And if there's a shortage of reporters, throw in an Arundhati Roy as well, she will explain to the world why people like Afzal Guru and Kasab are heroes and are justified in their actions. If I were to pray for media houses I would pray that the next major terrorist attack happens in their own office, all of them.
And they pray for these because there are lesser production costs unlike a garish studio program that involves morons from two sides of the political spectrum. And then their studio musicians get to score dramatic music to back such events and reporting. Looks like they will have their prayers answered quite frequently. And rest assured our media scavengers will be right there with their "breaking news" !
