I all but expected this to happen hearing news of her return to Pakistan on the car radio earlier.
Militants linked to al Qaeda, angered by her support for the US war on terrorism, had threatened to assassinate her.
Earlier, she pledged to fight for democracy as she ended her exile amid chaotic scenes at Karachi airport.

So, you are trying to justify the murder of better than 50 bystanders and wounding of 150 others with
an accusation of corruption? That scores high points with You?
I have a doorstop with a higher intellect and more moral values than you!

Because of the corruption. It is so much worse than mass murder to an Islamist or a psycho like Islamoboob. Justifies damn near anything.

Try to understand us lefties trooper. See all we need is an accusation for an automatic conviction. I give you our fearless leader John "the wad" Murtha and those murderous Marines. Secondly, we only care bout dead civilians when it is US citizens causing said deaths.
Did I do good LLama? Did I splain our stand right? Huh, did I?

Willie, it's Karl Rove's weather machine, and he turned it off here in Texas. The rain is heading your way. With our blessings. Enjoy.

Hey, now. I just linked to information regarding the former Prime Minister. Somehow "Bhutto has a history of corruption" got translated into "You either support the corrupt Prime Minister, or you support the terrorists!"
I'm beginning to understand how the conservative mind works. Binary.

"Hey, now. I just linked to information regarding the former Prime Minister."
Now, now I'm sure you're just misunderstood. Probably has absolutely nothing to do with your reputation.

Too bad the mercenaries from Blackwater weren't on hand. They would have started shooting LONG before any bombs went off.

"...would have started shooting...."
See what happens when you keep hanging around with 'necks, boob. You're already talking about shooting and such. When are you going to tell that story about 'ole Cooter? YUK..YUK!

Too funny jj and you must know that boob would never leave his basement and touch a gun

Islamoboob, one wonders why your answer to mass murder would be a link to corruption. There was no other conclusion a rational person could make. I'm beginning to see how the liberal mind works. When you get caught....lie.

What's important to realize is that, when Bhutto says she plans to "fight for democracy", her primary target is not Al Quaeda, but rather the current dictator of Pakistan, our ally in the war on terror, General Musharraf.

Seems to me she is directly responsible for those who lost their lives. If she had not gone back to Pakistan they would not be dead. Not to mention the wounded. I blame her. She warned it could happen and it did.
