100th Post

Rediff.com, an Indian News Website, has a story about George W. Bush's plans to avoid the monument for Mahatma Gandhi on his upcomming trip to India.

George W Bush's protocol handlers have notified South Block that the American President's deep belief in his born again faith precludes his visiting Mahatma Gandhi's Samadhi at New Delhi's Raj Ghat -- during his forthcoming visit to India.

When asked -- by reporters on a recent trip aboard Air Force One -- if he will be breaking a decades long tradition of foreign dignitaries visiting India paying respect to the Father of India, Mr Bush, as is his wont, was caught off guard and mumbled something about how the Gospel of Jesus Christ views cremation as a pagan practice.


This is how we show repect for the world's largest democracy? India is the future, we should be doing everything we can to help and support them. In the future, they will be the ones aiding us.
