I don`t have anything against her national origin.

I just feel that she is downright INCOMPETENT to rule a complex country like India. That`s all. What the hell does she know anyway ? about handling nuclear command, monetary policy, economic policy, foreign policy, managing states, getting along with diverging view points of various coalition parties, managing disputes between states, etcetra, etcetra.... She neither has the Aptitude nor the vision for leading a country like India. Besides I don`t want the security of the country to be in the hands of a person who waited 15 years to get citizenship. That ought to tell how much she cared for Indian citizenship. Now, some people might try to justify her as a PM by pointing to other idiots like Lallu and Mulayam who are worse. But justifying one incompetent person by pointing to other incompetent people is just about the dumbest argument that anybody can make.

If some idiots are not coming to their senses even after reading this post, then I would say that they are traitors and should be hung from the nearest lamp post.

When the Spanish landed on the coast of Mexico, the Aztecs didn`t know what their intentions were.

The Aztecs had a legend that their God is of white complexion. They looked at the leader of the Spanish expedition and assumed he was their God because he was white.

The parallels between 16th century Mexico and 21st century India are compelling.
