Grown Ups Anyone??

Today's farce was so ludicrous that I do not have many words to spare for it. All this Shiv Sena daring Rahul Gandhi to step in Mumbai as if the city were its property, Rahul Gandhi carrying out the elaborate drama of travelling in a local train (in a special carraige reserved for him amidst state policemen paid using tax payers money) and our news channels covering the whole thing as if it were the third world war.
Any grown ups in this game of politics? Any one who can talk about inflation, debt, economic downturn and recovery? Any one who cna talk about the upliftment of the underprivileged from the backward regions? Any one talking about energy security or climate change? And any politician capable of coming up with a strategy to face global challenges in the new decade?

The wait is on...
