Mission Impossible!

The TV channels in the country air the political talk shows with such abundance that they cannot always find quality politicians to  participate in them.  The second and third rung  politicians in their eagerness to outdo each other and  prove themselves  more loyal than the king not only present a scene out of a  fish market – all talking simultaneously without listening to the other - but also expose themselves bare with their hollow and shallow arguments. Imagine, of all persons, even Imran Khan saying that a mission cannot be bound by a time limit!  I always thought that a mission had to be selected very carefully for it to be Clear, Precise, Attainable with the resources available and Accomplished in the given Time. Or else, it would be a vague statement, not worth being taken seriously. 

Oh Lord when will we be blessed with the leaders with clear vision and mission.
