"Govt should not thrust Indo-US N- deal on anyone: Pawar"- INDIAN EXPRESS
The UPA government should "not thrust" the Indo-US civilian nuclear deal on anyone if the Left failed to play ball as the country needs stability, Union Minister Sharad Pawar has said.
Yeah. And you want to continue sitting on the cushy ministerial chair.
The NCP supremo, whose party is a key constituent of Congress led coalition at the Centre, also said that he was embarrassed by Shiv Sena chief Bal Thackeray's suggestion that Pawar would make a good Prime Minister. 
But very happy inside!
Asking the government to take a rational approach on the nuclear deal, he said, "We should try our level best to convince our colleagues, but if we are not in a position to convince... not getting total support... majority in Parliament, then we have to take a rational approach."
Meaning sit out the remaining term of the government. Hell with the nuclear deal.
Pawar, however, said that he would be happy if the nuclear deal goes through as it is an alternate method of generation of energy, which is the need of the hour and is also environment friendly.
Spoken like a lousy politico. Will the real Sharad Pawar stand up, please?
At the same time Pawar said, that the left parties which are opposing the deal are "honest to their thinking".
Yeah. They should not be hurt too. They have the numbers to let me sit in power till 2009. Kal kya hoga, kisko patta?
Pawar did not agree with the suggestion that the Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and Finance Minister P Chidambaram has failed to deliver the goods. He suggested it was wrong to blame them as the government is not made of one or two parties and there are Left parties which have "some different thinking".
Can you figure out the meaning of that?
"I don't have the strength and numbers in Parliament. It is not the question of liking it or not. It is just not possible with 14 MPs."
But one can always dream.
