\u201cI call him Khodsal because he has told lies on many occasions.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
This is what I really like about Anna Hazare. He not only has the arms that Gandhi used, but also has something that the Big G lacked big time! Balls.<\/b> Anna Hazare can call a spade a spade, and he is not afraid of doing so.<\/p>\n
We don\u2019t need leaders \u2013 moral or political \u2013 who are forever talking esoteric nonsense and not prepared to go the extra mile. It is important to have people who can speak out when it matters on people in power. Enough of living in pretense! <\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
