Thank you Tariq. For throwing light on the wider background in which this statement was uttered. But then, as you rightly said, one can’t blame ppl like us to misinterpret, given the context.

“The comment you talk about was in fact nothing but a sarcastic reply to a ridiculous issue raised by Khalifa AlDharani commenting on the spread of spinsterity among Bahraini women.

His reply does sound very acceptable if you balance it out with the irrationality what AlDharani is raising. ”

Perhaps…but when I called him to ask him about it, he didn’t say he was joking. He just didn’t want to comment on it…and if you couple that with the fact that he himself has four wives and some 13 children, then you can’t really blame people for taking the comments seriously, can you?

Some politicians hold that the only way to make a revolutionary safe is to give him a seat in Parliament

that might work if he was the only one, problem is he’s not. he’s competing for first prize with at least one other contender.. and then there’s a couple more hot on their trails..

Wow! The MP in question seems like a classic example of ‘open your mouth and display your foolishness’ type.

And the lone female spinster MP – towards whom this may have also been subtly aimed at – who, by remaining silent, becomes a classic example of “close your mouth and display your wisdom’ type.

CS Lewis said : “Some politicians hold that the only way to make a revolutionary safe is to give him a seat in Parliament”. Now, is the revolutionary safe? or the parliament safe? :whistle:

LISTEN people… all you liberal douches need to get off your high horses.

Religious fanatics need to get their freak on too. and women arent THAT sexually needy… apparently the divorce rate is very easily linked to us men needing to conquer new uncharted territories every so often.

So what do the women do in their downtime between seeing their husband and sharing him with the other three wives? Well…. Watch the Koran channel…. watch some more Koran channel… more Koran channel…. “whew this is getting dull… I wonder whats going on outsi… WOW my gardener has a really cute butt!!”

Nagging in mono is bad enough, but quadrophonic!! What a thought.

On a lighter note, I haven’t spoken to my wife for 3 weeks. We haven’t fallen out, I’m just not quick enough to interrupt.

:biggrin: :whistle:
