Our politicians never lose an opportunity to prove it to the whole world they are totally innocent of these attributes of the evolved human mind. The nincompoops who created a rucus in the parilament over a member's use of the term "boys" to refer to our army men perfectly complement the current lot crteating a controversy over Tharoor's intelligent use language.

The whole point of a democracy is to be yourself and shake up a few things to bring changes in the system. India cannot carry on doing politics the way it does. By this I mean throwing slippers at each other during a session of parliament. We need dignified people like Tharoor and less pencil pushers.

Tharoor is a great man but is misunderstood by so many people. Do some research on him and see how much humanitarian work he is done for people around the world, then compare him to politicians in India, I promise you, you will be shocked!
