"We supported BJP led NDA during the Kargil War, but the BJP does not support FDI in retail" screamed Rahul Gandhi in the Congress organised ?Mega? rally at Ramlila maidan today.
Now that statement is really something! Why you ask? Well because even if Joseph Goebbels was alive today, he wouldn't have been successful in helping the Congress convert this statement of "Yuvraj" into a political propaganda!
Whether or not Congress supported NDA during the Kargil war is debatable. They have consistently refused to celebrate Kargil Vijay Diwas since they came into power in 2004 and you can read here on their activities during the Kargil War.
During World War II, Britain was run by a coalition Government headed by Winston Churchill (a Conservative) and his deputy was Clement Atlee (from Labour - The principal opponent party). Supporting the Country was/is the only the only choice any patriotic party will have during a war.
What I really don't get in Rahul Gandhi's statement is that did Congress really have another choice during the Kargil war? Is he suggesting that supporting Pakistan was an option? To call this statement of Rahul as absurd would be an understatement. Even school kids would have a better understanding or correlation than Congress's *Yuvaraj*.
What is more disgusting is that an erudite like Shashi Tharoor fawning over Rahul Gandhi's speech and oratory skills today (But then he stopped being an erudite when he joined the Congress party back in 2009)! Has Mr. Tharoor even considered that he was completing his PHd when Rahul was running down around in his nappies. Or this is his balancing act to remain as an MoS?
"National" English channels say that Congress is on a comeback mode! Really? the only comeback I can see in Congress is the shameless re-introduction of all people who were forced to resign for some issue or other in the past 2 years. be it Mr. Tharoor or Dr AM Singhvi, Congress has shamelessly brought them back.
Also I am really impressed with the battery of great orators that Congress brought out today to showcase their *reforms* agenda! Seriously guys, you guys started the rally with Rahul Gandhi's speech followed by Sonia Gandhi reading out from a paper and then followed it up with MMS the robot?? Manish Tewari would have done a better job single-handedly!!
And finally as every day goes by, the shameless "National" English channels can't hold their horses for Rahul Gandhi to become the PM of India(even though Rahul Gandhi's contributions to both Congress and the Nation has been "a Kapil Sibal"), while I am growing in confidence to a statement someone made on Niticentral. "Rahul Gandhi is actually an avatar of Vishnu who has been born to ensure the destruction of dynasty in India!"
