		<description>The left is only comprised of the old blood sucking,never deing bastards who would sell their mother in order to stay in power.They have brought bengal to an state to anarchy.Whatever is happening (singur,nandigram etc) is a result of the seeds shown by these leftist.when nothing is attributed to them they start barking with their secular credentials which is nothing but blind muslim ass licking.</description>

		<description>after supporting the congress party for four years they suddenly
come out in the issue of atomic energy and from the next day onwards
they conduct tharnas,demonstrations,processions,crying at the doors etc. against the congress.  this makes the literate men irritated.  even
village people are criticizing this sudden change of the basic character
of the communist.  this is the main reason for the failure.</description>

		<description>Hi Balu,
Thank you very much for stopping by. I will certainly head over to your blog too.

I am sorry I &#039;left&#039; out the Left out of Kerala, but the problem is you see that the Left has not had that much of a successive run in Kerala and our Keralite brothers should consider themselves extremely lucky for two reasons:
1. The Left never had successive terms.
2. The Gulf, which is a second home to majority of Keralites has given a lot of jobs back home, though many of them are outside the purview of the legal system - like there are hawala operators in Kerala who cater exclusively to people from the Gulf, mind you only Kerala. - That was satirical of course. But, as you can see the communist philosophy has failed because the impementors of the philosophy have gone overboard, concentrate power amongst themselves and as they say, &quot;Power corrupt fools.&quot; 

Then how do you expect it to not corrupt the Left, which is intellectually bankrupt. 

But, the way they are right now, I don&#039;t think they want to reinvent, these guys are happy to have power but have zero responsibility as they are having right now with the UPA, the entire farce over threatening to pull out support was really a piece of crap. I am sure if asked to the Left will not pull out support as it likes the current situation which it is in now.</description>

		<description>Hello Venkatesh, I am surprised you did not mention anything about LEFT in Kerala.. Other than Bengal, only Kerala is blessed to be ruled by the LEFT! (for the record the first elected communist govt in the world was in Kerala) They rule for five years before handing over the batton (eh chair) to the congress 9who rule for five years again)...

Getting to the point.. The communist in Kerala is stuck between industrialization and their ideology. Only recently did they realise that the cannot develop without industrialization (Kerala has already a high education, health standards.. so nothing to look forward to)
Poor chaps hope they they reinvent themselves</description>
