It's interesting to read that the communists and the BJP both are wooing Mayawati for their stand against the government!!!
The "party with a difference" is making a big difference by aligning with the communists who tasted the fruits of power for 4 years without a remorse and with LS elections round the corner talk about inflation, price rise etc. What a sense of timing!!! At last that they did break their slumber at a crucial time is really "Communistic".
L K Advai seems to go the Sitaram Kesri way by being the new "Old Man In a Hurry" - Thats the taste of power in politics.
That Bahenji's Manuvad, illegal assets accoumulated, efforts to break other parties (SP/Congress in UP) does talk about "values" that BJP always talked about standing for.
I was once an admirer of BJP and it's thought processes - the BJP will do good to wait for elections and come to power on it's own rather than still thinking that it is in power - which it did for many months after losing power.
A small prayer "O Lord - save us and our country from such dirty politics and politicians".

Dear Mr IqbalI dont know what are you are saying. You are finding fault with every party against the UPA and every thing correct in parties favouring UPA. What about congress which enjoyed power on the strength of leftists for more then 4 years I am not a supported of left parties by any imagination. But they also can have there point of view. Why should they support Congress for no reason. When you are finding falt with wealth amassed by Mayawati, what about Lalu Yadav, the pillar of UPA and many other leaders. How are Sonia and Rahul Gandhi surviving. What about three convicted MP's for murder supporting UPA, I am talking of convicted and not charged. What happened to congress when there stoog governor of UP, T.V.Rajeshwar did not give permission to prosecute Mayawati as she was close to Congress at that time and the moment SP has come close to congress, CBI has files cases against her. Whta's all this. And what about that greatest fixer Amar Singh who is the biggest spokesman of UPA now. And about BJP, it is not toppling the govt. The left parties withdrew the support and the govt is in minority. It has to seek vote of confidence as did NDA govt. So what do you expect from BJP. To support congress in the confidence vote. It is always the responsibilty of the ruling combination to arrange majority. No opposition party has ever provided numbers to the ruling combine in any democratic country any where in the world. You are trying to praise BJP only to look a neutral person.

Have you read the nuclear deal ? If so, what is objectionable and anti-national about it ? I have read the draft and am surprised that India got away (or will get away !!) with so much for the country inspite of all the IAEA persons helping to draft it!!!
