"The magnitude of a real man's substance is shown by the amount of time he spends thinking about himself. His virtues lie in his capacity for self promotion. His credibility is in being obnoxious, without producing results of course. He uses blogs and internet to create an image of himself he has so long fascinated about. This real man is the second to only god. Needless to say of course, WE ARE ALL VERY INTERESTED" - An Old Chinese Saying.

I presume you are talking about Parmendra and not Tom Daschle?

Paraminderr is like a Parasite. Always eating up his hosts.

Tom Daschle is my hero. My roommate used to Intern at his office in Washington, DC. I have met him once and he is really down to earth person like late senator Paul Wellstone of Minnesotta.

Former US Senator Tom Daschle has launched a scathing attack on Nepal's king, who seized power in February.
Speaking in Kathmandu after talks with King Gyanendra, Mr Daschle called for the release of ousted former PM Sher Bahadur Deuba, jailed for corruption.

Mr Daschle said all political prisoners must be freed and urged the king to scrap a controversial corruption body.

As he made his statement, security forces re-arrested a prominent student leader, Gagan Thapa.

A senior police source told the BBC evidence was being gathered to lay charges against Mr Thapa, detained for several weeks earlier this year, in a special court.

'Convicted criminals'

Mr Daschle led the Democrat Party in the US Senate for 12 years until losing his seat last November.

He stressed he was not speaking for the US administration, which has called on the king and political parties to work together and is reviewing military assistance to Nepal.

The former senator laid into all sides in Nepal's crisis at a news conference in the capital.

He said the parties sidelined by the king should remove what he called corrupt people from their ranks and offer a blueprint for change.

He urged the Maoist guerrillas to end abduction, extortion and violence.


But the BBC's Charles Haviland in Kathmandu says Mr Daschle's most blistering criticisms were aimed at the royal palace.

Pointedly, the former senator said, corrupt people and convicted criminals should have no place in the royal-led government - a reference to a minister once jailed for attempted murder, our correspondent says.


Mr Deuba refused to recognise the commission

The powerful anti-corruption commission which sentenced Mr Deuba to two years in jail on Tuesday was set up by the king in February.

Nepalese opposition parties have condemned the sentence as an act of political vendetta.

Mr Daschle said the authorities must release all political prisoners, including the former prime minister.

Asked if he thought the monarch would act on all this, Mr Daschle said: "I wish I could be more hopeful that his majesty heard and was willing to act."

To to Tom Daschle appeared to be the most uncharismatic Democrat Senate leader ever. I was in awe when I first heard that he intended to take part in the last US President race along with the crowd of Democrat US President wanna bes. It was wise of him to pul out of the race very quickly.

I dont know what if the words of Tom Daschle will have any impact on the attitudes of current regime in Kathmandu.
