A slap in the face

Dear God,

Last Sunday couldn't have been any better.

I was thrilled to watch Ram Jethmalani hit back at that obnoxious, disgusting and despicable Karan Thapar. Trust me, I am not a fan of Ram Jethmalani or his Machiavellian ways. However, when Ram walked out chucking the mike despite pleas from Karan to calm down, I just loved the moment. Finally someone to give it back to Karan. You had to watch that show to see what I mean. That moment was bigger and more exciting than an iMac.

A similar thrill was provided sometime ago by Raj Babbar. Babbar had just won the elections after his move over to the Congress. Babbar was being interviewed by Rajdeep Sardesai. During the course of their conversation, Sardesai provoked Babbar by questioning him on his politics of convenience; on how he would switch parties at will and to win seats. Babbar promptly retorted by reminding Sardesai that not long ago he was with NDTV before he moved over to IBN. Nobody questioned him then.

I despise Sardesai and consider every retort on him a personal victory. The Master of Slime and his minions have to be reminded from time to time that they remain servants of the society. If they can't exercise restraint on their material and its delivery, somebody has to slap them in the face.....

Kudos to Jethmalani and Babbar......
