The world is beset with problems. The global economy is in grave danger with a real possibility of another recession, climate change is causing drought in one region with floods in another, countries in the middle east are changing with no way of knowing which way they will go, China is threatening its neighbors and Pakistan's economy could collapse if the US cuts its aid resulting in chaos and a possibility of rabid fanatics running around with nuclear weapons in the trunks of their cars. Unfortunately when the world needs statesmen and women to take charge of affairs we are landed with pretenders, gasbags and geriatric old goats clinging on to kursi by means of frantic foot licking. There is Obama who has suddenly woken up to the fact that unpatriotic Republican jihadists are never going to agree with him on anything even at the risk of damaging the country. Obama knows that his main strength is hot air and with elections in November next year and, a bunch of jokers as Republican contenders, must be feeling pretty confident of himself. There is David Cameron who has already wasted 500 million pounds in bombing Libya while raising education fees, cutting social security and emasculating defence forces. His ultimate ambition is to be like Margaret Thatcher but he does not have the balls. There is little Sarkozy who wants to prove his manhood by becoming a father. There is Berlusconi who really knows how it is done with prostitutes. He claims that he has never paid for sex which would imply that he is cheating these poor women. The low down crook. As for India we cannot blame anyone because there is no one in charge. How lucky.
