Why Indians must not make fun of Bush
This post stems from two themes that have been central to umpteen forward mails recieved by me.
First theme is to make fun of George Bush, The US President. Mainly because of his dillydallying stands, incorrect statements or his outright ridiculous policies.
Second theme is of a "Be proud to be an Indian" series of mails. This goes on to show the CV of either Manmohan Singh or APJ Abdul Kalam or both, and then makes tries to prove that the county having such leaders can only have a "brilliant future".
I am sorry, but I beg to differ. Firstly, the stands and the policies adopted by our PM Manmohan Singh's UPA government has in a way proved to me that the reformist and the "economic wizard" that he was once, he is no more. How can any economist fail to realise the potential damage that the reservation issue can cause to the economy? How can he fail to realise the simple solution to the petrol price rise issue? How can a reformist be so unsure of his acts?
[Refer my previous post: My frustrations with the UPA govt.]
How?
As for our highly qualified President, well all I can say is that unfortunately the brilliant mind is nothing more than a signatory to the acts of the UPA government. The biggest proof to the fact being the Office of Profit issue.
Therefore, Indians like me should stop trying to glorify their leaders inspite of glaring fallacies from them, and realise that everytime you are making fun of George Bush or just laughing at a George Bush is so dumb email taht u recieved, our government is just as bad, if not worse.
Dont laugh. Be Sad. Very Sad.
The nation's future is definitely not heading upwards anytime soon. :-(
