Dr. Singh has shown arrogance and contempt for democratic process. He misrepresented when he assured Bush that he has the support of the parliament. Congress should have worked on consensus building while the negotiation (with US) was in progress during last two years.

You are right. Dr.Singh's behavior is very autocratic. He went and negotiated a deal with the Bush govt and did not bother to think if the country is with him or not.
Even Musharaff the dictator is finding out he cannot force the country to agree with his decisions.
Manmohan Singh got all the credits for the reforms in the early 90s. People do not realize how hard it was to move a country from the socialistic mindset to the grownth-oriented reforms. That credit should go to Narasimha Rao without whom Dr.Singh's reforms would have stayed on the paper at best.

Building consensus with Communists...! How can you have consensus with the Chinese Agents...? When PM works for India and they (commies) work for China... there will not be consensus on anything that helps India to grow.

Dr. Singh could always keep Atal and Advani in the loop all the time to ensure their support. He did not do that as he wanted to get all the credit for 123.
