In one of his rare contacts with Manmohan Singh, Obama thanked the Indian prime minister for supporting the U S's surveillance of foreign nations and assured him, "Yes, we scan". This elicited a spontaneous and truthful response from Singh, "Yes, we scam". Obama was not sure whether he heard the prime minister correctly. He is still reviewing the tapes of the telephonic conversation.
Obama ordered enhanced surveillance of Indian government ministries. He was amazed at the extensive use of American tactics by the Indian government. In a most secret meeting of Sonia Gandhi's trusted advisers which also doubled up as a high-powered ministerial committee, it was decided to do an "operation twist" and increase the scope of 'QE'. The committee was eager to gather 'bipartisan support' so that filibustering by the prime minister and his economist-friends would be prevented.
President Obama did not know that operation twist means resorting to ordinance instead of parliamentary legislation, QE is an acronym for questionable expenditure which will ultimately go into politicians' coffers and bipartisan includes both Soniaji and Manmohanji. GOI soon issued the Food Ordinance.
