Compare Obama with Dr. Bhattarai? That's an almost an insult to our Prime Minister.
We have witnessed Obama's meteoric rise after he talked the talk at the 2004 Democratic Party Convention. He became the President after the voters were forced to pick on face value between Obama and the McCain-Palin duo. The distance between the horns of dilemma never seemed more arduous or longer before. Fast-forward a few years, now we have an unyielding Republican Congress and the lame duck President, caught in debacle after debacle while the general population bears the brunt of the recession. Even the truth has a limited gestation period. When the people come back to the senses,Obama's Presidency is going to sink like a rock as if the meteor has fallen right into the sea.
Dr Bhattarai,on the other hand, has been in the public eye for several decades wowing the Nepali masses with one achievement after another. Remember what Alec Baldwin said in one movie? He said. "it takes brass balls to sell real estate". If that's true, I am sure in Bhattarai's case, it takes platinum balls to bring down a feudal society like Nepal. Revolutions and military campaigns are brutal and and bloody. That's why Subhash Chandra Bose uttered, "Give me Blood and I promise you Freedom". You can ask Prithvi Narayan Shah himself (when you meet him in Heaven or Hell) about how much blood was splilled during his military campaign in the Malla dynasty's Kathmandu valley and in the surrouding regions. Therefore, you Mandales, when are you going to stop providing that corny argument of 13-15 thousand casualties of the People War?
I would now say, let bygones be bygones both for Bhattarai-Prachanda and Prithvi Narayan Shah. Let's allow the leaders who we truly believe can lead Nepal for things bigger and better to come.
