Therefore it is not surprising when I am put off by posts saying, “Hey, Indians need a rightist, secular, libertarian national Party, see I am such a genius that I have figured everything out”.This is called triumphalism or certitude, or worse “Hey I have some buzzwords lets slap ‘em together and call it the new hope for India, where is my marketing degree”. As someone who is still trying to figure out stuff, this pisses me off. So excuse my lack of enthusiasm, please !
As you can see, the dictator isn’t too impressed with the idea of a libertarian party.
Update: The Acorn responds,
Gaurav’s alternative title for his post is “from India lovers to freedom lovers”. Yet the two are hardly mutually exclusive. It is possible to be an India lover and a Kannada lover and a Ghazal lover and a Hilsa lover and a Mac lover and a Scotch lover and a freedom lover at the same time. But is possible only if India remains a country of freedom lovers

I swear to god, I try to look at the blogs all’y'all reffer me to. But this one, was… self referential, forward referential, putting together exactly what he was saying in context of who he was saying it for, and in response to what, in anticipation of what response to what, head=hurt OSIUSOSAATHOEBUO to describe this feeling? (Or should I use some obscure Scott Adams Acronym that has only ever been used once?)
But given this is a blog about political view points, its good. It works. It confounds, and there I am thinking vote for this person, if only to shut them up.

I have a question. Why was this linked to? Because this Confused person wanted to show his equanimity?
I suggest all other editors gang up and mug this bastard.
