Dears,

I agree absolutely with Marshall,  and with PM Manmohan Singh.

Manmohan Singh is indeed a dignified man - as is Atal Behari Vajpayee.

Even in his rebuttal of LK, he was dignified.

It is no secret that Manmohan Singh is respected all over the world
except by the radical right

Dr Manmohan Singh is dignified, gentle and courteous at all times.
However there are occasions when pushed to the wall by unreasonable
people, he can give back hard and mighty. This is the stuff our PM is
made of.

Here are some quotes of Dr Manmohan Singh:

"Advani likes to call me a weak prime minister. I cannot help pointing
out that when held to the fire during the Kandahar hijacking, the
BJP's *Iron Man melted*."

"I will certainly not say things in Pakistan that *offend every Indian
and then abandon my stand* when it becomes politically inconvenient in
my party."

"The BJP has not allowed Parliament to function... and now Advani
wants to debate with me. *I don't want to give him the privilege* that
he is an alternative prime minister."

"Mr Advani has the unique ability to combine *strength in speech with
weakness in action*."

"I am not a sloganeer. I will readily concede that my opponents make
more rousing speeches. But unlike the NDA's prime ministerial
candidate *I will not be found weeping in a corner* while hoodlums
tear down a centuries-old mosque. Nor will I be found *wringing my
hands in frustration while one of my chief ministers condones a pogrom
targeted at minorities.*"
