A front page head lines of The News of today reads, “Whatever the memo verdict, SHO will be assigned by me, says PM”.

Frankly, what kind of message is the PM trying to give and to who? Is it not a

Allies, Cabinet to accompany PM in the court” reads a front page headline of the daily The News of today. Hope they do not forget to garland the PM profusely and raise slogans befitting the occasion like, “Qadam Badhao Yousaf Gilani – Hum tumharey saath hein”, and “Yousaf Gilani tere jan nisar – Beshumar - - beshumar”. I don’t think they will be allowed to take a Dhol for Bhangra in the court

The commission on Memogate wants Mansoor Ijaz’s presence before it while a few others are interested in his not being there. All sorts of delaying tactics and impediments are being created for him not to travel to Pakistan such as issuance of visa, not guaranteeing his safety and security while in Pakistan and not granting him immunity from being charged for some other offence etc.. May I, therefo

In reply to a TV reporter’s question as to who was the President whose Vice he was, Dr. Babar Awan replied that there was only one President in the country. An obvious hint to President Zardari. Does it mean that Babar Awan has been appointed as the Vice President of the country? If yes, under what constitution? And if not, then what is the answer to the TV reporter’s question?
