What was the need for an interim report…..timed to suit Laloo,
Now you know why they call Laloo chaloo!!!

Then as he got the report Laloo took it to his next rally,
Spoke on it and hoped that this would improve his Muslim vote tally.

Banerjee seems to be having occult powers…..that is how he has come to the accident conclusion,
Fact is his report is simply based on delusion.

Jago EC and stop Laloo from selling Ghodra to get votes……what a shame!!!
But then this has always been Laloo's game.

So this Commission is by Laloo and for Laloo……working under his diktat,
Laloo's aim is to put BJP on the mat.

Commies were in a good mood since a couple of days….nashta with Manmohan (Man) Singh,
Where they will get an opportunity to tuck in and sing.

Of course they will be singing about their demands…..we want this and we want that,
Pulling out all their demands from the Commie hat.

EPF hike, no foreign investment in Metro Airports, disunity in alliance….the list goes on and on,
In fact if Man does not politely show them the door after feeding them they will be there up to dawn.

Why doesn't Man instruct the Caterer to fire up all the dishes with chilly…..extra hot,
Commies will have their gobs scorched and will be a pretty quite lot!!!

Make them gobble to shut their gobs,
Then all that will emit from their mouths will be fiery sobs.

Yes he and Sonia will only have coffee and something sweet,
As on the Commies via the food he turns on the heat.

In Bihar seems Congress has told Paswan …keep our tents apart and hearts together,
Power and yen to cut Laloo to size should tether.

In Haryana seems the Asset affidavits given by many are grossly undervalued……abs jhoot???
But then how can they give the true value of their loot????

Properties in Delhi and Gurgaon valued as if these are in rural areas……what a sham???
And as EC does not check the value these Politicians care a damn.

EC should acquire the undervalued properties ….like done by Income Tax,
Then these people will declare the true value and not be so 'purposely' lax!!!

Amrinder is going to A&N …….Haryana Congressis will be relieved,
Hatred for Amrinder in Haryana has to be seen to be believed.

Of course Raja Ji will carry all his 'food and drink' with him for his A&N trip,
And if you look closely you will get a peek at the flask dangling from his hip.

In this flask is Raja's pep tonic…..a couple for Patiala pegs,
Poured out loyally by his minions from the 'on board' kegs.

And his Man Friday ….Rana Sodhi will be close at hand …aka Odd Job Man,
Though Sodhi says he is Raja's biggest fan.

So Raja is Obelix and Sodhi is Asterix and the magic potion is in Raja's hip flask,
Raja does everything like a Raja…secular face is just a farce and a mask.

After sugar now India could face a shortage of edible oil….Pawar says import of high oil content oilseeds is need of the hour,
Otherwise he warns Edible Oil could make things go sour.

Hulka Fulka

Bush's return they say is dangerous,
In fact for the World his return is perilous.

Now after Iraq it is Iran's turn,
Towards all Islamic powers Bush has an outlook that is stern.

Now he is targeting Iraq's Nuclear capability,
But USA is also Nuclear and many times over so why this duality???

Confucius says….Texans are trigger happy……it is their genes.
He continues…..In fact they start using guns to settle issues from their very teens.

So Bush is no different …….is trigger happy and is always ready for a fight,
Like a true blooded Texan has to always show his might.

In fact they says Bush and Donald 'Quack' Rumsfeld have sworn to make the Islamic forces toothless,
And now in his second and last term he will with all his might press.
