1. It's important to have a woman, who helps at home, who cooks from time to time, cleans up and has a job.

Aaj Ki Aawaz

Sorry to hear the Sonia is hospitalized on account of an asthmatic attack!!!
Seems when she was campaigning in HP enough woolens she did not pack!!!

In the hills they respect the cold!!!
And more so as one gets old!!

She's a tough old gal and she'll be soon back on her feet,
But for some time she should spend more time indoors in 'moist heat'!!!!

And Madam Ji you are no longer young so please cut down on cheese!!!
At your age you should only smile when you see or they say cheese!!!

Eat sensibly as politicians tend not to pay attention to khaana peena!!!
And this is the reason why most of them end up with pain in their seena (chest)!!!!

And Sonia Ji when you go hyper in your speeches please stop to take a breath!!!
In one breath you damned Modi Sarkaar and ended it with ' Merchant of death'!!!

Good to hear that BJP' started its poll planning!!!
And now decide on the in-charges of the States or manning!!!

BJP needs to keep indiscipline at bay!!!
Make it clear for indiscipline dearly the flouter will have to pay!!

In MP Uma's offered BJP to form an Alliance with her Party!!
Is she trying to be arty???

If BJP does decide to ally with her BJP should first ask her for a vow!!!
Iron clad pledge on the head of a cow!!!

She should be made to pledge that she'll not make a fool of herself again!!!
And again she'll not put BJP to pain!!!

Whatever may be wrong in the Party she should have kept it in the Party!!!
Why in Public with the Party did she get tarty???

Amrinder gives a reason for his Aroosa connection!!!
Says it's for his intellectuality and sanity protection!!!

Big words for a man whose intellectuality revolves around booze, hogging and gals!!
On this you can crosscheck with his pals!!!

Badal Senior they say is having second thoughts about handing the reigns to his sonny!!!
And his wife too is backing him so on sonny taking over I'll not wager my money!!!

Seems Sonny's Mom and wife had a falling out and now Mom's taken a reality check,
Now she feels giving Sonny power is like giving him a blank signed cheque!!!

Amar Singh is known for being crass and in Amritsar showed his crassness!!!
In a place of worship Amar was sheer brashness!!!

He fought with devotees but devotees let him off!!!
They just laughed it off!!!

In Big B household be it marriage or death it costs s pretty packet!!
And the household has to make a humongous racket (noise)!!!!

He ensures that the Media comes to know of his schedule and then does a privacy sham!!!
Blames Media for being intrusive and Media ko karta hai damn!!!

The probe into Benazir's assassination shows Pak Government's connivance!!!
Seems for her assassination the was an ' Alliance '!!!!

In Pakistan if you ask me Mush's exit's countdown has started!!
Maybe by US very soon Mush out of Pakistan could be carted!!!

Mush is now the cause for Pakistan 's strife!!!
His exit rumor's in Pakistan are rife!!!

Very soon Mush maybe either the Saudi's guest or the Queen's mehemaan!!!
He'll sure miss his 'naan, raan (meat)and paan'!!!!!

Coming back to Sonia…….. well Madam please do take care!!!
Nature one must never dare!!!

Confucius says… Your true wealth is your health!!
And if you can't enjoy your wealth because of your health what use is the wealth!!

Continues…. People first loose their health to make money!!!
And then they spend money to regain health doesn't this sound funny!!!
