That being said our liberal journos were ecstatic at Obama's win, something which is also not surprising with the US government's active interest in managing perceptions. When Obama won the election today our liberal journos and media personalities exploded with joy as if Obama was being elected as the President of Pakistan and not of USA. I will say no more here but present to you screen shots that I took of twitter regrading those people's tweets and leave you to be the judge.
The darling of our fashion industry seems jubilant at Obama's victory? Is he your president Ms. Aaminah?
Dear Asma Shirazi, how can you maintain your impartiality when you are so over awed by Americans
Aliya Salahuddin, haven't seen her much on TV for a long time, well we now know she spends her time crying for Obama, could that time been spent crying for Pakistan, we all would have been happy.
Yes, Mr. Salman, may the junoon of droning the bejesus out of Pakistani always be with Mr. Obama.
Ah, thegenius Ms. Mehreen Malik, writes brilliant Op-Eds on The News but seems she is beholden to Democrats, somebody please check whether she is Pakistani or American.
What is this champion of human rights is doing in Pakistan and is beyond me, apparently drones and constant attacks by Obama and Co. do not constitute human rights violations.
Yes Ms. Tarar, we know you are extremely happy, couldn have cheered and show interest our own elections too.
What to expect from Mr. Solangi who runs Radio Pakistan, even our radio waves are being controlled by yanks now.
Yes, Ms. Nuzhat, a ladoo every time a drone blows up a civilian house in Miraanshah.
Now you have seen. Now you decide. The power to decide is yours. Avail it.
good pieces of writing jimmy.
