The whitewash has started, in fact it started long ago but now the footlicking freeloading press is doing its bidding. The games are being painted as a grand success. Never mind the billions stolen, never mind the loss of face, never mind the near empty stadiums, never mind the sheer low class of the scum in charge the spin has started. If you are an Indian then you must show support, it is patriotism. The trouble is the scum are so low class that it is difficult to identify with them. One woman got her 7 year old son accreditation as an official because her husband is out of town and she could not leave him alone. It would cost money to employ a nanny. The Lt Governor ( is he some British fossil still hanging around?) is most upset that the Chief Minister is taking all the credit for cleaning toilets when it was he who cleaned them. Consider the contrast with the treatment being meted out to Lalit Modi. He organised the T20 Cricket Premier League from scratch, made it hugely successful all over the world and made it immensely profitable. His sin was that he excluded criminal politicians and thieving civil servants from taking their cut so they were after him from the beginning. It started with little things. The cheerleaders were scantily clad. This from bandits and rapists. Then security was denied because of the inconsequential general elections. So Modi took the IPL to South Africa and made it a success. So now all the investigating agencies are competing to file cases against him. But then Modi is not Congress. The same agencies do not know how to investigate the telephone licensing scam. Congress- the most efficient syndicate in history.
