Subject: Subramanian Swamy

Well said -- Subramanian Swamy is one of the various political animals that we all need to be ashamed of. Particularly the educated voters. Swamy has time and again proved that he can be worse than any uneducated MLA or MP can ever be.

Harvard cannot be too proud that it has produced such a student without any intellectual honesty. All that matters to Swamy is his ego and his ego alone. Whoever pleases that or pampers that, is a saint, be it Amma or her sister, or Laloo Prasad Yadav, whom he will eulogise to any end. At least they continue to massage his ego.

Subject: Subramanian Swamy -- Trash

Why bring trash and put it on the dining table? That is exactly what Saisuresh and other writers are doing by constantly highlighting this trashy politician. Just ignore, he would fade away. But in reality, they don't want him to fade away -- a sinister plan.

Subject: Swamy

Subramanian Swamy is a perfect example of a man with no principles -- posing as an intellectual. He is thriving because the press keeps reporting his antics. I suggest the press should ignore him. If he is starved of news about himself, he may realise that the Indian public is tired of people like him.
