Why such cherry-picking of remarks? In recent months, both Salman Khurshid and Rahul Gandhi have also made remarks using disability metaphors that aren't in good taste, but why no outrage, I wonder? Are we borrowing a leaf out of Orwell's Animal Farm and using it in context of disability as "all remarks against the disabled are condemnable, but some are more condemnable than others?"
