One does not need to lose memory, be intellectually inferior to you or be a full blown ignornant to support King G?s move. If you look at your posting you will know what I mean. When one starts to have a discussion by calling his/her opponent a moron (what else should one conclude, do tell me?) then one has already taken a position of "I am right because I am morally and intellectually superior." Then question comes why even bother to discuss. Iit could be that you know everything, see everything, understand everything that there is to understand, read everything that needs to be read, heard, and consulted everybody that needed to be consulted on the issue on hand. Do you? The question is whether you support King G.'s move or not. I am one of the supporters which you may have already guessed. ahem. I know you are very smart. But what I am telling you is we the supporters of this move are not saying he is a "messiah" '(in your own word), that there was no corruption before multi party system, that Nepal has not progressed in some areas. What I am saying is Maoists problem is growing and there is no end in sight. I am not talking about tarakari ko ubho lagdo bhau or dust in the valley. I am talking about Maosists problem and elected congress' ineptitude dealing with the problem. Hey I am not even talking about India?s shrill objection about the king?s move here! You know everybody knows one can show data anyway one likes. You can talk about percentage of poor going down by 30% and I can talk about 48% Nepali living below poverty level. And so on? Things were not all honky dory before the multiparty systme, and you can go on saying 'it was not honky dory bofere' and argue against that. Things can be pretty confusing - I am tellin' ya! Rrhetoric can be matched with pages of rhetoric and sajha will be filled even more. After looking at the chaos (mainly the Maoists insurgency) from afar and living in chaos time to time I came to the decision I came. Is your world made of only black and white? Or do you allow some shade of grey too? Does one have to hold on to the mast 'Democracy' even a ship is sinking? (you and I can argue if the ship is really shinking or not ? that is another matter)? Or will you allow some drastic major to save the ship? Monarchist! Now that is a big word you are throwing about luv. My dear, it is good to be democratic. I am not denying that. Do you want to sing the virtue of multi party and cabinets and freedom of press and live in a broken state? Or rather you want the problem solved? I do not know if the king has a clear plan to win this Maoists problem or not but I really hope he does and sees it through. I want to give him a chance. That is all. ps Nepe daju, yes of course I will take the responsibility when a bullet leaves a nozzle of a pistol and kills a "republican." Have you taken some responsiblity of the killing field that maoists have created?
