What was Zardari thinking?

September 27, 2008 posted by indiatime |

This week in New York, Pakistan’s newly elected president Zardari met with US vice-presidential nominee Sarah Palin. What happened during their first formal meeting has now become a moment of embarrassment for the Pakistani president. As he shook hands with the young good-looking Sarah Palin, Zardari made a pass at her, first praising her about how gorgeous she looked and later offering to hug her as well.

“…You are more gorgeous than you are on TV,” said a drooling Zardari to Palin, adding “…Now I know why the whole of America is crazy about you…”. To many those comments would sound very sexist and strange for a diplomatic exchange. But when the two were asked to pose for the cameras again, Zardari joked that he might even hug her if the press insisted on it.

What a contrast to the statesman-like and erudite Indian prime minister. One thing Man Mohan Singh will never be accused of hitting on a white woman.

Although the Zardari-Palin meeting was a short one at that, sources close to Zardari let indiatime in on how the conversation would have gone on, had the meeting continued longer. So here’s part of that Zardari-Palin meeting that didn’t happen.

Zardari: Mrs. Palin, I was really looking forward to this meeting. I was up at 5 this morning. Couldn’t even sleep last night.

Palin: Oh, Mr President, that is so flatterin.

Zardari: Actually Mrs. Palin, I was wondering how to begin our conversation. But then I thought that Alaskan women must be great at breaking ice (laughs).

Palin: Oh Mr President, that is so flatterin. Are you talkin abowt lots of ice breakin in Alaska. I don’t know if that global warmin thing is true.

Zardari: Oh believe me Sarah, umm may I call you Sarah? Believe me that global warming is happening. With women like you around, no wonder there is so much global warming…oh..what’s that wonderful smell? What perfume are you wearing?

Palin: Oh Mr President, that is so flatterin. It is moose musk from Alaska.

Zardari: (hums) ….Tu cheez badi hai musk musk…

    As time goes by we will see that Zardari is not fit to be President.
