I don''''t think the world is very safe. I wouldn''''t want to live on the Pakistan/Iraqi border.

No one wants to live on that border--since such a border does NOT exist. LOL

In announcing he would quit after all, Musharraf mentioned the many problems facing Pakistan, including its sinking economy. He said his opponents were wrong to blame him for the mounting difficulties. "I pray the government stops this down-sliding and take the country out of this crisis," he said. "

This same scenario could be said about Bush. Except he is not stepping down, his many breaches in the Constitution are not being challenged and the "opposition" is either in collusion or in his pocket or are being blackmailed by him and therefore have not sought impeachment. Without a doubt the proof is there--what is missing is the will from a Congress intent on checks and balances to oust a man who has not only harmed this country but also caused great harm overseas.

The legacy of Bush are record deficits, record destruction in an unprovoked war with Iraq, record inflation and almost universal disdain and disrespect now--for both the US and Britain--around the world.

As goes the Bush, so declines the esteem of any who allied and supported him. Blair is out. The Australian Prime minister is out, Musharraf will be out--and the exodus will slowly continue.

As for Tomflint--never praise the arsonist for his attempts to put out the fires that he, himself has started--it only encourages pyromania.

"Had Positioned Nation As Key U.S. Ally In War On Terror"

"Many Pakistanis blame rising violence in their country on Musharraf''s alliance with the U.S."

It was clear that the Pakistanis wanted no part of Bush and his lies, so Musharraf, in 2007, "...ousted dozens of judges and imposed emergency rule", or in other words stacked the deck with unpopular and corrupt Bush sycophants, thus ensuring his own demise, it was only a question of when.

Even the Pakistani''s have the guts to rid themselves of a President who committed far less crimes than George W. Bush.
