Politically incorrect?

Is this just me or others too feel that the commotion around Lord Ram's existence is needless and pathetic to say the least? Do these politicians take the Indians as some sort of misguided morons. Ok, may be misguided, to some extent, with the media playing the big role in it by being biased to certain section. But morons? Shut up!
Seriously, does it even matter, whether Lord Ram existed or not? Does tht issue in any way diminish his importance as to the lessons learnt by his actions in the Ramayana written by Valmiki? And BJP, whom I actually believed to be the reformative party, during tht media blitz of 'India Shining', seems to have become so freakin' desperate, that they are using such inane issues to corner the ruling regime? And to know that, it was actually BJP which initiated the plan for the demolition of Ram Setu way back in 2002! Such hypocrites!
Does this say tht, BJP has actually ran out of ideas to corner the goverment or is it tht the goverment really is doing so well, that BJP has to resort to such farcical issues to shake it?
Inspite of the large section of media going for an all out war against the goverment regarding the reservation issue, have to admit that, this goverment has held its own quite well against communists and unfriendly media breathing down on its neck!
Anyways, I sincerely hope tht the good sense prevails and for once, the political parties start respecting the common man's intelligence.

P.S: If at all they had to corner this govt., they would have been better off protesting the nuclear deal much more aggresively, because if some of the communist posters are to be believed, this nuclear agreement might just turn out be one of the biggest blunder in India's history! Alas, but this wouldnt have mobilised the ordinary man to protest as he barely knows the intricacies of such a deal, right? So all this fuss, I guess. But, I say again, do not underestimate the common man's sense of right n wrong...else, we may witness a case of a big foot being firmly entrenched into a big mouth of these jokers, again!
