1. "Manmohan was begging Karat". The less said about the mental faculties of a person writing such non sense, the better, but let us see what would happed if the lft does withdraw support (as against the "issue based support" bullshit): There will be general elections and whatever happens to Congress the left will lose both seats and influence. The fact is after a lot of circus the left has backed down. 2. "An attack on left can be dangerous to public debate": by all accounts all over the world and by what happens in West Bengal every day I can not help but conclude that any attack on the communists can only help public debate. 3. "Left is driven by ideology and principle" ha ha ha ha ha ha .... Perhaps RSS/BJP can be accused of havng an ideology (however flawed) but the left, he he he, mate what were you smoking when you wrote that? 4. "Government's errors of commission are much graver": I don't see a single covert "error of commission", whatever the terms means, in this whole piece. And if the author is upset that the government voted against Iran let us remember that this government is duty bound to protect the interests of Indian citizens, not those of Iranian citizens. The left (synonym for sinister, which means, well, sinister) never understood this I believe. 5. "Dr. Singh pays lip-service to disarmament...": Really what is the issue here again? Are the communists criticising the deal because Dr. Singh can now give India 300 warheads every year?
