Obama sin-laden ?

Obama and his agents did not think twice before killing the unarmed Osama bin Laden. This may be forgiven when viewed against the utterly gruesome deeds of al Qaeda. Opinions of course may vary.

If we do not mind a little bit of malapropism and are game for inoffensive humour, we may call the American President Obama sin-laden.

Nobel for Obama

President Obama has reacted with grace to the award of Nobel peace prize for him. "I don't deserve it, but I accept it as a call to action". No one needs to teach Obama what to say. If there ia a prize for articulation, he would win hands down.
Does he really deserve the Nobel so soon and that too before he hopefully starts delivering on his words? Opinions may differ, but there is unanimity on one thing. It is that he owes the prize to George W.Bush. His predecessor has made his job very simple. He has only to undo whatever Mr.Bush did and do whatever the latter had left undone. I wonder if Obama has conveyed his thanks to George W.
The Nobel Committee has acted smartly in incentivising the American president to continue to abstain from bellicosity that the world has come to associate with Uncle Sam.

Obama's olive branch

President Obama's flawless articulation was again in evidence in Cairo yesterday. He made a compelling plea against violence and voiced a strong case against clash of civilisations.

He probably believes that uttering falsehood is acceptable if it would help mend relationship. How else can one explain his statement that America and Islam share common principles of justice, progress, tolerance and the dignity of all human beings?

Misunderestimated President

During a recent visit to England, George W. Bush warned that he would soon start writing a book. Covertly, he did interview a few ghostwriters and historians. None of the ghostwriters could come up with even a single statement that came upto his standards. Predictably, the historians were incapable of twisting and turning the past enough to capture Bush's contribution. So, Bush has decided not to seek anyone's help. He is on his own.

I was lucky to be offered a preview of opening chapters of his "bioautography". He starts with a typical challenge to his detractors: "I want the enemies of our country who think they are capable of destroying USA to know that I am even more capable of that". I am permitted to share a few more glimpses:

"Was I ever against African Americans? Never. I am proud of my successor. I thank the African state of India for gifting the Obama family to America".

"Sonia Singh, the Prime-President of India was always a well-wisher of America. It is a pity (s)he could not sign the ABC agreement and take the nucular proliferation forward".

"Will I invade Iraq again? Certainly. Our enemy is becoming stronger with every invasion".

"What is my advice to American childrens? They should do what I did and also what I did not do and I repeat, both".

we are not winning.we are not losing.

President Bush was at his obfuscational best when he rationalised about his adventure in Iraq."We're not winning.We're not losing."Then what are we doing? Should more lives be lost before there is a definitive answer?
