Who is the greater con artist?

Asif Zardari or...


...Bernard Madoff

There is news all over about the capture of Madoff and his financial frauds. The way he had swindled so many people and the cummulative total that he amassed and remained undetected for so long led someone to comment that he probably is the greatest con artist of all time.

I beg to differ.

I think they should study the portfolio of our own Asif Zardari. In case they don't know he is the president of Pakistan. Some time back he had been in prison for alleged money laundering amounting to billions and even murder cases. But he had been smarter than Madoff. The very fact that Madoff has been caught puts Zardari on top of the list of the greatest of all con artists.
