Reason has dawned on Singh and the chicken brain of Sonia Gandhi.Now she says she has never said anything like 'the detractors of N-deal are the enemies of Congress (I) and the nation!! She has become a typical politician or was she drunk when she read those lines in Haryana ??????????
Let me start by saying that people of India are happy people. We are not rich, we are not best performers but we are happy with our lives. The reason we are happy is because of our freedom that our fathers gave us 60 years ago. We are happy because we have liberty to be independant.
We do not have puppet governments whose strings are controlled from abroad. We do not need false luxury if it costs independance. True freedom is being able to be independant, is being to be able to judge things without any influence. Nor do we have foreign soldiers controlling our territory to stage operations in other countries. Nor do we have foreign soldiers raping our women and escaping the law.
No I do not want to be a millionaire nor do I want electricity if it costs me freedom. Freedom of independance in foreign policy. India has paid the cost of freedom by being poor. If USA is truly interested in partnership of equals, then we should willingly extend our hand of friendship to them, however, be careful that hand could be snatched and twisted in want of greater concessions. This is how USA treats its business partners. Let them come clean on their REAL intentions on nuclear deal, we will sign the deal.

You are free in india? As a normal citizen, you are treated as a riff raff by politicians, law enforcement and bureaucracts...even when a gulli politican goes in car, traffic will be stopped for hours, police will not help you unless U r a rich person, govt.servants do not care unless U bribe them; people on the street will not care, not even an ugly girl, if U have brown skin...so what independence U r talking? U brainless idiot...talk sensibly, do not use your mediocre knowledge on things U do not know

What you said is true mostly. But these have very little to do with freedom. Is anyone dictating your life? Are you scared to utter something against the government? Do you feel threatened to talk against Hinduism being muslim? Is anyone stopping you from publishing something anything in newspaper? Is there anyone else who is controling your other than yourself? I bet the answer is 'no' for all the questions. Some problems are there in India. Which contry doesn't? But that does not mean that we are not free.

Man except one fact that currently US is far ahead than us and India need more US assistance than US needs India's Till now what we have gained by over non-alignment? How many countries support US when we go to UN for any permanent seat or for any issue? There is no point is always doubting US intention, Isrieal is allay of US and a small country but where ever required US has supported it. If u want to have friendship then u have to give some and take some.
The three parties that are against that deal 1. China 2. Pakistan 3. Communist China and pakistan opposing the deal itself mean that deal is good for India, Still we can not go ahead with the deal because there are sizable amount of traitors in our country and I should say they are huge amount of stupid, idiot , fools in our country who bring these traitors to parliament. Congress is bending in front of these traitors and compromising with India's intrest to save its government. God know when we will be able to trough these basta...s communist out of our country. Good give some sense to guys who vote for them.

USA as we call country of double standards wants: 1. Get Billions of dollars of business revenue 2. Get leverage on Foreign policy 3. Control future of Indian nuclear program
People of India are not traitors. We have democracy which means right to disagree. If USA is so much interested in welfare of Indian society let them frame their laws without ambiguity

man there is nothing like free lunch What u think, US should open a langar for our communist to come and eat When ever there is a business deal each party involved should be benefited. India has to see whether they are befitting out of it, and i am sure that they are, concern of Pakistan and China also shows that. Regarding traitors so there is no other word for communist, i will hold this word for uneducated guys who vote for them but for ppl like u its applicable Go and live in china

We don't want their 'free' or 'not-free' lunch. We can prepare our own lunch. Period.

Our PM has sent a clear message to USA that India will not tolerate interference or games
'The pressures' did not come from 'trying to bring about economic reforms' as he puts. The presures came about becuase of the collapse of the Soviet Union, and so too India's biggest trading partners, sending her economy into bankruptcy. The 'reforms' he talks about, were NOT voluntary - they were Mandated by the World Bank as a pre-condition for extending a stop-gap loan of a few measly billion dollrs (for which India had to pledge all her gold reserves as surety) to stave off total economic disaster. Were it not for that economic meltdown, the Commie Cong would have merrily kept to their same destructive Socialist policies, raking up huge growth in the 2% range, which they shamelessly referred to as the Hindu rate of growth. What a two-faced hypocrite.

I once read a quotation from Winston Churchill, the former PM of UK during WW-II, which read something like: "A government is as good as its people". The current situation reflects this very clearly. We have tolerated the stupidity of left for years after years, no one has ever protested. No media has ever taken a strong position against the communists in this country, nor even a position against the communism which only brings misery, misfortune and poverty to the people of a country. No one was ever bothered. So, why are we crying now? Do we deserve a better government at all? If communists are in power, India will slowly and steadily go from worse to hell. It is the best time for us to understand the danger of communisms and particularly the stupidity and ignorance of our leaders, from all parties, which has lead us to this situation.

I am surprised that when every one knows that the sole motto of communist party opposing nuclear deal is save China's interest, why none of the media channel etc do a debate or poll on this

Only people like you who just want to ape the West would want to through sms polls. Media channels use the dumb sms polls to make profit. The people in the villages know better what they want.
USA is right, Before going forward on N-deal first India should resolved its internal politics playing by Left. Left is now successful for delaying the N-deal. Now it is a time for debate real issues in Parliament. Communist Party wanted to avoid debates on major issues. Major Issues in India. 1) How many jobs Communist Party has created for poor since they are in power. 2)How many poor become rich in West Bengal & Kerala. 3)How many industries closed after commies comes in power. 4)How much money is wasted after every agitation by communist. etc....etc....etc.....
Manmohan Singhji what do you want to convey ? That you are a gutless traitor? We know that..you are now an intellectually bankrupt genius now.. confusing, contradictory words.. but that's what you are now. Shame on us to have you as our PM. And hell to your commie traitors. The country was ruled by 700 years by Moghuls, 200 yrs by British, and last 5 years by Commies.. we were, are, and would always be slaves.. unfortunately this time, of idiots who call themselves INDIANS
