Imran Khan's Nostalgia


Nostalgia is like a grammar lesson: you find the present tense, but the past perfect!

Imran Khan says that "Musharraf's dictatorship was better than Nawaz Sharif's democracy".

However,he doesn't remember or he didn't want to recall that it was during that dark era that his sisters were disgraced and beaten by policemen.

Unbelievable isn't it?
