Ever since India's president wannabe Pratibha Patil confessed to having conversations with a spirit or some such nonsense and this, naturally, made front page news on most national newspapers, I've been wondering about the logic behind such a confession. Either the person is amongst the seriously deluded who believe in Sai Baba and similar frauds and thus have hallucinations from time to time to maintain their insanity, or she is trying to project an image of being having divine powers to the gullible, of which millions abound, to cover up the other bad news about her that has been exposed recently.
Thanks to Jayeeta for this image - feel free to put it up on your blog.
