"I was in the neighborhood..."
You quoted -- "Bush met with Afghan President Hamid Karzai during a five-hour unannounced stopover en route to India and Pakistan."
It might have been unannounced by the White House -- but -- it sure was announced on Free Republic yesterday. I remember reading about a trip to Afghanistan being included in the trip to India.
Does anyone else remember that from yesterday?
