Re: # 25
Well Mr. Leadhead,

You're guidance comes from your brain cells: common sense. We Muslims have Divine Guidance no matter where we live. Living amongst criminals, traitors and call-girls has done irrepairable damage to your common sense because you see the entire world full of such characters.

Don't you live in this world? Since you're an Indian, why don't you mind your business and sort out your own problems first. An Indian agent like yourself must stay fit but I'm afraid too much hatred directed against a neighbouring country and its people will kill you very soon.

Rest in peace.

Re # 18

Unlike being informed by the idiotic islamic semi-literate rubbish you incessantly spew Mr. Tahir, I am merely informed by objective common sense.

The Pakistani public are indeed traitors, thieves, criminals and prostitutes... hankering for democracy as prompted by their own lack of moral fibre and incitement by their friends in the US...in the same cargo-cult-like manner they hanker after mobile phones, MTV and other western consumer goods/lifestyle..

Democracy is requisite to the Pakistani elite and middle classes, as it is in effect authorisation and solicitude for them to perpetrate the corruption and manifest the criminality as well as the general ineptitude and administrative malpractice that Pakistan is world-famous for.

Democracy is well and truly in this case.. "by the people for the people"...

This is precisely why Benazir and her husband, both known and proven criminals (by courts other than, as well as Pakistani Courts.. i.e Spain and the UK to name a few ) were readmitted into the country. This is why Navaz Sharif, a known and proven criminal, also brother to a known and proven murderer was allowed to stand for public office.

This is the only and exclusive basis for these previous elections.

Pakistanis only want democracy because it allows them to be Pakistanis as compared to being human beings.

The quality of leadership the people of Pakistan hanker after .. (evidenced by the numbers that responded when Benazir turned up and Sharif's popular support ) .. reflects only the quality of the people of Pakistan... as traitors, thieves, criminals and prostitutes.

These are truths we shall have to admit to and address before any progress can be made.

No amount of education of the leadership can ever result in any improvement. It is every member of the public who has to be educated before democracy can ever work, (if indeed democracy is even nessessary). This is a point which has been proved by every European democracy, which only very gradually allowed adult franchise to different social demographics.

Before that day comes only a dictatorship can work as suffering only thing muslims understand.

It appears that a certain kangaroo has changed its name to 'USeless Elite' and regularly stoops to abusing the sisters of the CHOWK editors.

Re: # 5
Mr. Siddiqi,
The surname implies that you're associated with those who speak the truth.

Answer this appropriately (interact #4 "forgot the Pakistani public consists mainly of traitors, thieves, criminals and prostitutes hankering for democracy")

You cannot be so oblivious fishing in CaliFORNIa.

"the Pakistani public consists mainly of traitors, thieves, criminals and prostitutes hankering for democracy".

What is Leadenwinter? Is that a name or a thing? Reform yourself RAW agent, and don't forget to take home all the call-girls you sneaked in through Wagha.

PS: who gave YOU birth nobleman?

fired from the hip with little clue of reality.
given the quality of graduates coming out of colleges there's no point in having this law. such a law does not exist in france or england or for that matter the US. the role of a legislator is to represent his constituents and that means he/she needs to come from "there". we had graduates for 5 years....2002 till 2007....can you please remind me Mr. Siddiqui of what legislative genius came out of that exercise?

I think if the bachelors degree qualification was good--except it should be upgraded to Bachelor's with a GPA of 3.5 or more.

If my last post sounds elitist then I don't apologise--human society is naturally heirarchical and to pretend otherwise in some far-left liberal bullshit is just stupid. 'The rule of the proletariat'--that's the dumbest crap ever spewed by an intelligent person. How does coming from the working class make u better qualified to rule? (I am from working class origins myself so have nothing against the working class per se.)

I think all prospective MNAs/Senators should have to sit an IQ test like the top multinationals use [in either Urdu or English] and anyone who gets less than 120 shouldn't be allowed to become an MNA/Senator.

Don't want thickos to run a country. Therein lies the flaw in democracy---even a clown can become elected if enough fools vote for him.

To require a Bachelor degree for becoming a MNA of 60% illiterate but shrewd voters -- is not only stupidly elitist -- but positively fascistic and degradingly contemptuous of the "Awaam".

However the necessity of the removal of this clause as the first most urgent priority through the SC illegal judges -- without waiting for the reinstatement of the SC legal judges shows -- that from now on Pakistan priorities will circle around a self-appointed, Matriculate godfather instead of a self-appointed Bachelor dictator. What an improvement. Bravo!
