\*\*Buffalo can’t become a Lion \*\* Mr. President Obama, how giant a buffalo might be it can’t become a lion by casting a vote of support thereto. Somalia is far better, may be supported for bringing her in the club of world big five, for Somalia unlike India is not sitting on UN Security Council Resolutions for more than 60 years in re: Kashmir!!! Mr. President Obama, you are worry about Burma, which is an independent country but you could not feel the least about Indian Brahmin Terrorism in the IHK and who martyred more than 80,000 Kashmiri men, women, & children thus far simply because Kashmiris want freedom!!! However, Mr. President Barack Obama, thanks to you & your country for calling spade a spade in Bharat speaking generally. ---

Yes that’s right, there’s only one side to the story - and what a surprise! It’s the one you believe! Your metaphors, however, need some work. ---

Yeah, Somalia would be better…don’t you actually have to have a functional government to be considered for the Security Council? ---

Wouldn’t it be better for the Security Council to have a few buffaloes, rather than just lions (and ex-lions like Britain, France and Russia)? ---

Listen, even Buffalo doesn’t want the Lions. If we’re going to lose the Bills then Ralph Wilson Stadium should sit empty. ---

The Bills and Lions both suck this year. And I think the Lions QB has a shoulder injury. Been a long decade for fans of both teams. ---
