I trust our president’s judgement. He’s dealt with far large problems very successfully.
LOLOL!!! Oh wait you were serious...
The Bush administration, his long-time patron-in-chief, appears ready to dump him, fearful that the situation in Pakistan is getting out of control and that the US is covering itself with infamy with its dodgy policy of backing an increasingly repressive dictator.
Now will the citizens of these respective states see a decrease of $10 billion in the budget? Or will this $10 billion go to the next 'well deserving' leader who isn't a tyrant until we quit paying him?
Better yet, maybe it will be just a downpayment to on the 'rid Pakistan of WMDs' upcoming police action. Of course we actually know they do have them so most likely they'll stay on our government's payroll under the misnomer of 'food aid' or 'human rights aid' as North Korea does.
