Mrs. Clean

The immoral, corrupt and power-hungry politicians cannot and will never be able to see the pure beauty of sacrifice that Mrs. Sonia Gandhi made for the Congress party in particular and for India in general. Her late husband Mr. Rajiv Gandhi was popularly known as Mr. Clean. It is high time we honoured Mrs. Sonia Gandhi with the title “Mrs. Clean”. There is no other political leader as clean as Mrs. Gandhi.

 

Comments:
The writer should familiarize himself with the circumstances leading to Sonia Gandhi's resignation. The rule which is applicable to Jay Bachchan should be applicable to Mrs. Gandhi also. Mrs. Gandhi did not become PM because of the reciprocity clause in Art. 105 of the constitution, which debars a naturalized citizen from holding political office if the country of his/her birth does not allow so to the citizen of the country where naturalization has taken place. - Satya Prasad - Mar. 25, 2006

Mr. King is obviously dazed by the so-called 'charisma' of Sonia Gandhi who happened to get caught red-handed while once again trying to subvert the Indian Constitution (last time it was done in a midnight session affecting the Bihar politics, remember that?). Every time she gets caught up in an embarrassing situation, she pulls a stunt like this and people like Mr. King quickly proclaim her as a saint who continues to make 'supreme sacrifices' in the 'interest of the nation'.

Congress has been known to be a party of corrupt leaders and the tradition continues despite Mr. King's glorious tribute to its leader. - Atul Raj, New Delhi - Mar. 25, 2006


No doubt that Sonia is Mrs. Clean, but I object with you, Mr. King, about Rajiv Gandhi. He came as Mr. Clean, but after joining politics he was not clean, and he left dirtied. I do not like to go into the history, but great examples are Bhagalpur riot, Bofors Gun. So far, I see Mrs. Sonia Gandhi as very clean and sacrificing one after another. I respect her and I think she is the best politician I have seen up to now in my life.

Once, I read a joke that Govt. made a dam and opposition leader has to inaugurate. After inauguration, he has to deliver a speech, and being in opposition, he must say something against the current Govt. He said, "I am suspicious about how fruitful this water will be, since the Govt. has already taken out its strength by making electricity."

No matter what you do in your life, how many sacrifices you make, how pure your intentions, your opposition will never accept it and always find a demerit. - S. M. Khurshid Anwar, New York, USA - Mar. 25, 2006
