MP's caught in sting operation

The top headlines today was how MP's were found taking bribes for raising questions in the parliament.
Somnath Chatterjee is amongst the first to raise his voice.
I want to raise a question in the Parliament as to how come this Communist has a palatial house in Bolpur and in Kolkata.
Seems he has been working hard raising questions in the parliament. With his kind of physique I don't think he has worked in the fields.
This practise of punishing someone for some act which is an accepted part of the Indian psyche needs to come to an end.
It's the same with Sex. People are not ready to believe that it happens. Guys in SBBJ remember Shankar.

I tell you almost all men in any position have taken some obligation at some stage in their lives. Why is it that if the obligation is monetized it becomes a sin?
I know of a very pious person who uses all his connections to reach the remotest Indian temple. He does not take money, but is he less guilty of encouraging the quid pro quo system.

Least corruption in developed nations.
My God!
People have such short memories.
Financial Corruption: World Com, Enron, Jack Leason,(whatever his name was)Iraq attack, etc.
Moral Corruption: Rapes by Mike tyson, Car sex by Hugh Grant, Under the table sex of Bill Clinton, Open exhibitionism by Paris Hilton, Janet Jackson.
The list seems endless.
It's only that financial power has the ability to blunt vision. The world is made up of corrupt people and we should accept it.
Just like ICC accepted that bending the arm upto 15 degrees is acceptable bowling action.

Sanjoy, Whatever I might say, Life is grey.

Murder: O J Simpson
Rape: Mike Tyson
Extra Marital flings: Bill Clinton
Child molestor: M. Jackson
Mass Murder: G.Bush in Iraq.
Husband Snatcher: Hema Malini

These are few of the people who were able to garner public sympathy even after what they did.
What I want to point out is that the grey allows you to view things in a comfortable light. Or is it finance which pulls the strings.
What do say to this!
