Aashique of Musharraf and Aftab : TPS is open to all. We are not tilting at any side. If you want to write in the favour of President Musharraf or anyone, you are most welcome to join our writers’ team.

Jang Group and Neutral!!!???

This is the joke of the century. HaHaHaHa!!!
It should have been completely banned by President Musharraf long back.

It always supports PPP and PML N and now they openly supporting Suo Mot Iftikhar and running full campaign for the departure of Pervez Musharraf.

Look at their anchor persons Hamid Mir, Dr. Masood and Kamran Khan, Absar Alam, Ansar Abbasi (the born enemy of President Musharraf) etc. They completely forgets that what PPP and PML N govt. did with Jang during 1988-1999.

I am waiting when these three will be kicked by PPP-PML N coalition if they start showing the same to them; what they were used to do with Musharraf govt.

The question is will they ever dare to do so!!

People I sometimes wonder and also am amazed to notice how much or little we are endowed with this chracter trait called - PATIENCE. I find it interesting that those who can put up with others least, expect tolerance from others. I just wonder why ?

If Jang Group had started this blog (which I doubt!) then it should be more balanced or even a little more tolerant of President Musharraf. I can’t imagine Mir Jameel Ul Rehman to have forgotten the kind of anti-press policies PML - N and its leader had during their last sojourn. Who can, in his mind, forget what Nawaz Govt. did to the Jang Group, Sethi, Husain Haqqani and many others.

No, no. Anti-Musharraf attitude is a popular thing right now and people who can’t get even with their kids, parents, spouses, friends, neighbors, etc. etc. take it out over here. So, it is kind of helping them poor souls.

This blog is just for only Anti-Musharraf and very few people knows about it. A blog could only be popular if it is having diversified nature of topics, un-biased, un-prejudiced.

It seems that this bog was started by Jang Group

I think Khan is right in that the blogs are vitalizing the public debate in many ways. But still, I moderate my blog sometimes because there are people who only write obscenities and threats. By allowing such comments your blog will not win anything. These people rarely have anything to say that someone else hasn’t already said in a more polite manner, so there is no loss of ideas.

Indeed, allowing neanderthals to comment may discourage more intelligent readers to contribute to your blog resulting in less freedom, pluralism and spontaneity.

Aftab, with all due respect, I would request humbly to you to be little less smug and rude. I would also request other commentors to focus more on the substance of articles rather than slinging mud on each other.

TPS, you are as super as ever and we will InshAllah always be with you.

I hate to break my silence in comments but sometimes it becomes unavoidable.

Listen Imran, you are not upsetting me at all. Like I said a bit of venom helps. I still say that TPS or any blogg is dependent on me, you or anyone. TPS never requested you or me to be here, like TPS never asked anyone else, we are hee because we want to. With a bit of patience things get easier. You see, you alreadt have started liking Dr. Raza Haider’s writing. And as far as I am concerned, I am not in it for popularity; you can lash at me or anything else you think satidfies your ego. Be my guest, just feel free I will not attempt to stop you. If it helps why not, it’s lot better than hurting the people who can’t even run away from you. Isn’t it?

Aftab you should write but just comment on the related post and dont force your articles upon us in the comments. if you are so fond of publishing your articles here in comments, then I would request TPS admins to take you as author on their site.
