If shot after the blast, I wonder if that means an inside, security, assasination (obviously directed by Musharraf)??

AQ would benefit the most from this, since it would cause strife between Bhutto loyalists and Musharraf loyalists. They could come in and take advantage of the confusion, just as they tried to do in Iraq.

I wonder if Al-Queada is involved, or is this a Mushharrif scheme?.......

I'm wondering the same thing.

AQ is going to make sure this pressure cooker explodes.

The Prez might want to reconcider his trip to the ME.

2008 could be a *made for movies* year.

She’s probably making as much, if not more, money than they are - every other commercial on daytime TV has Curry doing the voiceover. They’re very lucrative and anchors are prohibited from doing them.

I’m sure she may be axing herself that question right about now but it’s really rather moot at this point, wouldn’t you say?

No surprise here, given the number of attempts.

It is surprising how the MSM refuses to mention she was corrupt.

My question is, will this shake the middle classes out of their lethargy, and turn their will and efforts against the radicals?

This is going to be a mess for Pakistan, and possibly for us.

Watching the pics of the “loading” people onto stretchers and ambulances..I figure they kill 50% of survivors transporting them to the hospital..
