In defense of Musharraf: “Atleast he was better than Zardari”
In defense of Zardari: “Atleast he is better than Musharraf”
When the supporters cannot come up with any logical argument, this is a standard reply. Why do we have to accept the ‘lesser evil’ story?
Dictatorships are always bad for a country. One man can be bought, threatened by interest groups. This doesn’t mean that democracy, in whatever shape, is ALWAYS better than dictatorship.
Democracy in the form we have, is bad for Pakistan. This does not mean that the only alternate available is to ask our respected generals to conquer the country again.
The theology of going with lesser evil has brought the nation to his level!!! We should define the criteria and stick to it... the lesser evil is "lesser" because of the limited power.. increase the power and the lesser evil can be worse than the BIGGER evil of anytime...
Molana Romi once said, If i had the power of Pharons, i might have been more cruel then they were....
The above arguments are from the people who worship personalities, they worship ZAB and his successor ( doesn't matter if he is somebody like Zardari), they had to vote for them, doesn't matter how much harm they cause to the same voter...
Musharaf was worst of the worst, Zardari is no better at all ( proven by his performance of last 2 years) there is no comparison between the two.. we need to look for somebody better... the one who is not Evil at all
Please leave us alone with our theories, and like i said, anything not bashing muslims doesn't interest you.. and i don't think that this thread is going to be the Muslims-abuser, so there is nothing for you in it.. you can continue with your senseless post ( abusing)in other threads
Its not about Zardari or Musharraf... Those were only examples. The issue is that for every argument, the standard answer is atleast XYZ was/is better than ABC. Why do we have to vote/support based on this lesser evil theory?
Musharraf had positives and negatives. Zardari has his own pluses and minuses. Why not build an argument on those?

well you are right when you say musharraf had plus and minuses but as for zardari he doesnt have either.
as for who is better both were evil, one was clever and more polished (musharraf) and one is crude and idiotic (zardari) both are no match but belonged to same category.
What childish thinking.... elections do not equal democracy. Democracy has a LOT of pre-conditions and post-conditions and this NRO democracy has nothing democratic in it not even the Richard Boucher backed elections.
We do have leadership crisis in Pakistan . But mostly its ethics crisis . People can talk and somewhat lead , but without any administrative skills and rubbish ethical standards . I don't really see any solution to it in near future . It take generations to come up with a nation with higher moral standards , as we can't teach that in class . Till then , evil might prevail .

Pakistan needs only one visionary leader.....as had been the case with most nations that are great now......or at least have lesser problems than Pakistan......who knows maybe in Imran Khan we can get a leader......who can guide us....i am saying who knows...because we have not tested him so yes, it is my thought....and others can differ too!
Yeah Hitler was elected through a process as well. So was Pol Pot and a few other crazies. That does not make it any better.
You will notice on the PPP Jahils will make the lesser evil argument. No sane man would do something that stupid.
Learned ,Educated and wise people can ignore this but see with open eyes. Ask one about their past and habits. Has any one asked even for pardon. These night mayors are as worst as one can. It is only a strategy to defame the democracy and than again live under the boots.
or perhaps (if I could borrow your sentence)
**
It is only a [stupidity, naivety] to defame the democracy and than again live under the boots.
......
And once the stupidity succeeds, and boots come back to rule us, then we all complain about the boots,
...
and this stupidity will continue until we have exhausted enough cycles between boot-o-cracy and democracy.
**
And then we'll be under Islamisms, or NATO-ism.
Sad isn't it.
Because we refuse to learn a lesson from the hushar nashar of the tribal primiitve societies in Arbistan, Afghanistan, and Afrika-stan.
It is almost true but we have no choices.
We see only evils. Difference between most here and my approach.
I am very close to......
Fools or Munafiqs
I prefer fools.
Every political party form left to right and from top to bottom has committed the sin of inviting the boot-o-cracy.
The idea in Pak is that if one is not elected to rule, then he/she is fully entitled to call for nay cry for boot-o-cracy.
Mullahs did it, and so did BB, and yes the NS, and the IK, and last but not least Mohajiron Qay liay Moat party.
People's Piss party is as guilty of calling the boot-o-cracy as the Jihality Islamists, and Pak na-Muslim League, and the Jahil Ulma of Islamists, all did it.
Question is!
When will this end,
and we'll start respecting the one who got elected.
And
the one who got elected would leave the office in 5 years (and not tie himslef to the big chair like Zulfi did).

**Shaheed Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto **was so popular that he was never afraid of elections. It was America and Zia who played the game. They ousted Bhutto.
Like now every one is part of same game and PPP is in hands of people like Rehman Malik. Only God is there to help us.
