Sherry Rehman: "Jaao Me Nahi Khelti!"

The gallant, the valient, the martyr in the name of democracy and justice, Sherry Rehman has resigned from her post as Information Minister to protest media restrictions. She handed her resignation to Gillani. Interestingly, she will not have to answer for government's crackdown on Geo anymore.

Now, I am taking bets on how long before Gillani overturns her resignation and begs her to continue her devotional and selfless services for the welfare and betterment of Pakistan.

Bets anyone?

In a related news item, it seems Zardari is losing his friends quickly. Sherry and Gillani already seem upset with him, and he seems to be playing hard ball with not only Kayani but also US and British diplomats. This, in Pakistan at least, is usually a fine combination for someone getting ready to go down hill (which makes me partially happy). Though, appearance of Kayani in political corridoors once again is a little unsettling.
