Barak Obama happens to be worst president in history of America, as per my views. A president who took oath to stop wars started by previous government, a president who wanted to make this world the best planet to live at, a president who wanted America to rise from ashes by stopping the Economy Crisis.
What we didnāt know was that this president wanted to stop war being fought physically by American soldiers but wouldnāt hesitate from starting virtual wars which might destroy other countries, that this president imagined America as planet ignoring rest of the world, that this president didnāt want to stop but shift the Economy Crisis to other countries.
Obama has been giving hate speeches before he became new American President. He has started hate war āon papersā as an irresponsible president, against India and other countries where American companies outsourced their business.
Being an Indian, I was hurt by those hate speeches and wanted to post my grievance and protest here at my place. Not sure how many people enjoy those words of this man but for me he is the worst president that I have witnessed in my lifetime .
Here is the record of hate speeches delivered by US President Barack Obama with the timelines published in Times Business on May 06, 2009 –
Itās a tax code that says you should pay lower taxes if you create a job in Bangalore, India, than if you create one in Buffalo, New York ā Obama, announcing a crackdown on tax loopholes on Monday
I understand that the challenges facing our economy have forced children in Raleigh and Boston to compete for those jobs with children in Bangalore and Beijing ā Obama at a speech in North Carolina in June 2008
At a time when a child in Boston must compete with children in Beijing and Bālore, we need an army of you to become teachers and principals in schools that this nation cannot afford to give up on āObama at a college commencement address in Connecticut in May 2008
This is the president giving birth to new hate terms like Bangalored and Obamination.

Today I received a mail about Lead India ā09 campaign being started by Times Of India from today in view of upcoming general elections in India. This campaign is about awakening the countrymen to vote for right candidates and before that, making political parties to bring right eligible candidates for representing them. For that, Times Of India will be reviewing all the candidates from tens of constituencies and publishing details of those political candidates.
Another good initiative coming from this leading newspaper and of course, I will keep posting more progress on same. Here goes the mail excerpt coming directly from Times Of India director -
Dear Friend,
You have often lent your voice and ideas to the issues our newspaper raises from time to time, through initiatives like India Poised. Clearly, you feel strongly for the way things are run in our country, and have a desire to be involved and make a difference.
Today, on the eve of the most important general elections weāve probably ever had, the nation needs a concerned citizen like you. To ensure that we donāt waste this once-in-five-years opportunity yet again, like we have been doing for the past 60 years.
The Times of India is set to launch Lead India ā09, a country-wide campaign across all our newspapers, with the aim of ensuring that better candidates are put up and elected in the coming elections. The campaign will first try to put pressure on political parties to feature better candidates, by mobilizing the opinions of lakhs of thinking individuals around the country; and then act as a Votersā Guide to help voters make a more informed choice, through detailed investigation of all key candidates in 40 urban constituencies.
To enable Lead India ā09 to become a powerful peoplesā movement, it needs a core band of volunteers willing to play the role of catalysts. As a member of this core, your main role would be to ignite the minds of our countrymen ā through heart-felt participation in blogs and discussion boards⦠or indeed by hosting your own blogs on any issue close to your heart. You would also be expected to reach out to friends in various community websites and involve them in the movement through simple pledges like āI say NO to criminals in politicsā or āIāll not let my vote go wasteā. Therefore, please let us know the social networking sites (e.g. Facebook, Orkut etc) which you are a member of.
So, if you want to be a change agent in this historic election, do write back to us by February 23rd and weāll give you a special pass and pre-registration to the forthcoming Lead India ā09 website.
I do hope you decide to come on board.
Rahul Kansal
Director, The Times of India

As Mayawati goes up to calling ruling Congress Party’s chief Mrs. Sonia Gandhi’s birthday as ‘ghulami divas’, why not we celebrate Mayawati’s birthday every year as ‘Haftawasooli Divas’ or ‘Fund Raising Day’ when she has been allegedly charging public for her birthday celebrations while killing few through her followers.
Another suggestion in comments was ‘Bheek Mangon Diwas’ or ‘Begging Day’
- Special on BSP chief’s Birthday (15/01/2008) who let more than 4000 opposition leaders to be arrested on same day.

I have been going through too many news stories these weeks which I kept thinking of mentioning at least once over this blog. Following Mumbai Terrorist Attack (26/11) stories so far and how few corrupt opportunist Indian politicians are making hay from it while playing caste politics.
Then there are politicians in India who are made State Ministers but donāt know how to spell their name or how to do their signatures. Golma Devi, Rajasthan state minster, learnt signature from her husband who himself is a leader who was denied party ticket from opposition party making him to trigger his wife to stand in elections because it was sure for him/his wife to win in this pure-caste-based politics within the whole state. Here are the excerpts -
Rajasthan minister just learnt to sign
"It took three days to teach her how to sign," says Kirorilal Meena about his wife Golma Devi. But the fact that the woman had topractice putting her signature on her oath letter hasn’t come in the way of her becoming a minister in Ashok Gehlot’s Congress government, thanks to caste politics of please and appease.
Golma Devi had to be accommodated because she’s the wife of a dissident BJP leader who’ll bring with her the clout of the powerful Meena community, which dominates Rajasthan’s bureaucracy. The woman, elected from Mahuwa constituency as an independent, could barely read her oath card at the swearing-in ceremony on Friday. The 59-year-old homemaker was prompted along by another state minister Ram Kishore Saini.
When Governor S K Singh said "Mein", Golma just uttered, "Mein Golma bol rahi hoon (I am Golma speaking)." Her oath was considered ‘read’ along with Saini.
This is one of those few eye-opening news coming from Times Of India that I like this newspaper otherwise there are so many reasons to dislike it.
Such news articles sometimes put me to shame on my decision to stay in India but then there is always a hope and trust to keep thriving towards making this country a better nation.
Also I am keeping track of two seemingly good Indian political parties started by well educated youth of this country ā Bharat Punarnirman Dal and Lok Paritran, founders of which are from premier education Institutes of India, IITs. Following open culture, these parties have published their party structures, Ideologies and lot of other very useful information online, which are quite of interest and promising to support them over others.
