Most of the congressmen r very opportunists and do not have any principles. Hence, if someone from dynasty is not heading them, they start street fighting.
This has given unprecedented power to the Sonia parivar now. Only people who matter in the party r Sonia, Rahul, Priyanka and her small children in the waiting. All others, including dummy PM MMS r just without any power. There is no internal democracy in the party. All major decisions r taken by Sonia. All appointments in states and center r through nomination by Sonia and not by election.
This is very dangerous for the country. It is good for people like Quatrochies only, who was freed from Argentina jail on our independence day last year, as CBI was forced not to provide enough proof against him. Earlier the Sonia govt allowed defreezing of the bank accounts of Quatrochi.
It is luck that even though both Congress (145/540) and BJP (137/540) were rejected by the people, Sonia is in power due to post poll opportunistic alliance with its enemies like left (congress's enemy in WB, Keral and Tripura), DMK (who r said to b friendly to Rajiv killers), NCP etc. in the name of keeping the 'communal' forces away. 'Communal' NDA gave us Dr Kalam as the president and what has 'secular' forces given us?
UPA and left r appeasing fundamental muslims by saving Afzal. They did not support secular Muslim woman Taslima (a rarity in Muslims) and Dr Kalam.

Dear Ram,
Today's HT carried a small story that would tell you why the country is in "better and safe hands" with the leaders heading the Govt.
Dr Kalam had prepared the letter appointing Sonia as the PM and his Secretary Mr Nair was waiting in the next room. The letter was to be handed over to Sonia when President would ring the bell and Mr Nair was to walk in with the letter to be handed over.
But to everybody's surprise, Sonia Gandhi walked in with Mr Man Mohan Singh and proposed his name.
This surely tells a story that nobody knew for sure.
But everybody guessed.
Ofcourse, RSS whisper machinary worked overtime after few weeks to "discolour such a great truth".
The whole story unfolds that Sonia had a bigger picture in mind and played accordingly.
So she handled the political bigwigs of UPA as well as opposition and allowed the PM to manage the country.
And apart from recent upsurge in inflation, the Govt. has been doing fairly well.

Moreover, Sonia proposing the name of MMS for PM-ship does not mean that there is internal democracy in the party. It runs to the whims of Sonia parivar. Now u people hv started asking Rahul to b made PM. Bcz u people cannot think beyond the dynasty.

What do u want to prove by this message? She did not become PM, knowing very well that it will b catastrophic.
She played the drama of sacrifice and installed MMS instead, who is the weakest PM, we ever had. All power is in her hand only. She is ruling the country from remote control.
We know how on an earlier occassion she went to the then President saying that she had majority with her & asking to b called for forming the ministry, though she did not have majority support.
So do not try to do Sonia worshipping. Do it in yr bedroom.

Rahul Gandhi is shedding so many crocodile tears for Dalits and poor? Why doesnt he asks his partymen to stop taking bribes from the hoarders who instead get money by looting the public by raising prices of essential items. Instead of visiting Dalits he should study why everytime there is a Congress government at the centre there is so much price rise? He should ask his mother why the Dalits are in such a condition when his great family ruled the nation for 50 years? He should ask Manmohan Singh what does he means by giving first priority to Muslims in government jobs?Since when has he converted to Islam and joined the Muslim League to start talking like Jinnah? He should ask Arjun Singh what has he done in last 4 years to improve the standard of education for poor people who cannot go to private schools? How many schools he as opened in backward and Dalit majority districts to help backwards and Dalits? Or he only wants remove creamy layer so that rich politicians and IAS officers children get reservations while poor backward caste common people do not get into IIMs and IITs?
