No consensus!
This refers to the question of understanding between the two major parties in our parliament. After the last American elections a friend of mine drew my attention to the speech given by John McCain and said, "See how civilized they are"? There is no problem between the two candidates any more. Why can't our politicians learn from this? I asked him three questions.
1. Do Obama and McCain agree that the founding father was George Washington? He said, "yes". 2. Do both of them believe in the fact that the Americans fought against the British colonialists? He said, yes. 3. Do both of them believe that the American independence was achieved through an universal declaration of independence? He said, yes. I said, "See? Though we have all these, our party in opposition does not agree. Now, if you deny the basis of your independence then, first of all, do you qualify as a citizen of this country and secondly how can you be taken seriously in matters of consensus?
