I am bursting with topics to write on now. I mean i had started this blogathon as an idea to condition me to writing more regularly. Its just 3 days since i have been at it continuously, so i cant really boast much. Still have a long way to go. I had read in Robin Sharmas book, “The Monk Who Sold His Ferrarri”, that for any habit to completely become your nature you have to go at it for a minimum of 21 days continuously. I dont know how he arrived at the number but, its still a great piece of statistical information for me. I like to strech my limits and challenge myself. My Taurean nature helps here in the sense that i am stubborn and if i really want to do something then i make my mind determined to do the task at hand if its do-able. Of the many ideas that zoomed past my mind today to write for the blogathon, i will obviously have to select only one idea.
Germany didnt make it yesterday. It was saddening to see Micheal Ballack after Spain clinched the Euo 2008 Championship. Well all points to them, they were clearly above Germany in terms of the game strategy. Germans hardly attacked in the 2nd half. Torres was good, real good with his solo goal in the match.
Left has come up with another drama. They say that they will withdraw support if the Congress goes ahead with the Indo – US Nuclear deal. Its really silly and i dont really understand why such as educated man as Prakash Karat, is behaving so childishly. The only reason the Left is anti Deal is because it involves the US. I dont really get Karats ideology so to say. Its all bullshit according to me, the reasons given by the Left and Karat in particular why it is against the Deal. I mean with a party like Left as your coalition, i dont think the Govt at the centre needs BJP in the opposition.
The Congress on the other hand is properly cornered man. I really pity the position Dr. Manmohan Singh has put himself into. On the one hand there are petty politics going on within his party. The time frame for the finalization of the Indo-US Nuclear deal is ticking fast. India goes to the IAEA by August, till then there has to be a definite decision taken, else Dr. Manmohan Singh will be remembered as the man who lost India this deal just because he wanted to save his Govt. for a period of three more months. Very rude i know, but that is how atleast i will remember him. Dr. Manmohan Singh is a talented fellow and the economic condition of the country today is all thanks to his liberating policy in the 1991 Budget. Also, the rising inflation and the Govt’s feeble attempt to contain it, is hammering the nails in the coffin of the present Govt. Rising prices have really angered the nation, and if there are early elections chances of Congress making it with a majority are very very slim. On second thoughts i dont really think the Congress have any chance, early election or no early election, to come into power next time, till it has some solid coalition. But i really feel that Singh should go ahead and finalise the Nuclear Deal once and for all. He will be revered for that for generations to come. At $143 per barrel of crude oil price, India cant really depend on oil anymore to sustain its voracious growth. We HAVE to start using Nuclear Power for civilian purposes. Its high time the Left and other anti- Deal idiots just shut the F up!
