On the eve of the debate in Parliament on the Liberhan Commission report on Babri mosque demolition, Shourie said, "It is an idiotic report...17 years of public money should have been wasted on this gentleman and his staff! It is a crime".
It rang a bell in my ears and I looked up the meaning of “idiotic”. I found this:

Adj. |
1. |
idiotic - insanely irresponsible; "an idiotic idea" insane - afflicted with or characteristic of mental derangement; "was declared insane"; "insane laughter" |
|
2. |
idiotic - incongruous;inviting ridicule; "the absurd excuse that the dog ate his homework"; "that's a cockeyed idea"; "ask a nonsensical question and get a nonsensical answer"; "a contribution so small as to be laughable"; "it is ludicrous to call a cottage a mansion"; "a preposterous attempt to turn back the pages of history"; "her conceited assumption of universal interest in her rather dull children was ridiculous" derisory, laughable, nonsensical, preposterous, ridiculous, ludicrous, absurd, cockeyed foolish - devoid of good sense or judgment; "foolish remarks"; "a foolish decision" |
|
|
3. |
idiotic - having a mental age of three to seven years retarded - relatively slow in mental or emotional or physical development; "providing a secure and sometimes happy life for the retarded" Reams of paper, thousands of witnesses, 8 crores, 47 extension, 17 years, presided over by a retired judge of the supreme court and an idiotic report. We have lost our shame. |
