"Shame on us"

We keep hearing these words often recently from all quarters of the soceity in different parts of the world.

• First from the media and the so called culturalists on the Kushbhu episode.
• Secondly from the so called honourable members of Parliament on the "few members of the parliament" caught on tape accepting money.
• Finally by Michael Bloomberg (NY mayor) and George Pataki (NY Governor) on striking MTA workers.

Shame on - what for? on Kushbhu/Suhasini for speaking the truth or the rest who doesn't want to?
On MPs accepting money or for getting caught? Because this is going on for years and these leaders are speaking now as if they don't know.
Bloomberg and Pataki as recently as october settled with other unions (sanitary workers, teachers etc..) and got their support for them because they were up for relection! Pataki is planning to run for President in 2008. Since people in America like leaders who just stick to what they say (it doesn't matter whether it is stupidity or good) rather than who sees reality and change with it, Pataki is branding himself as a strong leader by speaking tough words. Strong leader = be Obstinate.

So Shame on who? The media! The MPs! Bloomberg & Pataki! Shame on those who doesn't want to and doesn't have guts to face the reality.

Hypocrites - is it another name for Politicians?
