    What do you know? We made another enemy. Must have been while we were propping up that would-be dictator Musharrif. Who'd have ever guessed? Completely unprecedented, right?

    Now, what are we going to use as an excuse to invade this troubled but vibrant and healthy republic which is responding to the needs and will of its people? "Spreading democracy"?

    It's sort of strange.....
    I can't seem to find any other mention of this from any other news source. Maybe it's not very accurate?

    Maybe John McCain saying that "The US economy is in crisis" is bigger news?

    It, I believe, is just as accurate as the reports that Georgia was firing on South Ossetyia before Russia fired on them. It is also at least as embarassing to us.

    Guess what? They got sick of their president doing our bidding before theirs, and impeached him and forced him to quit. This makes their republic more responsive and represenative than ours. Why would we be embarassed?

    Well, The title of the original article and the content has changed. Now it's
    "US denies helicopter incursion into Pakistan"

    I thought that you just wrote another article or printed a retraction when you got new information?

    Yeah, and it only cost us $15 BILLION in the past 7 years!


    What a Bargain!

    Anybody what one of 500 foreign service jobs in diplomatic relations... no experience required. Heck that's what we're seeking, since experienced diplomats seem to be the problem. Sarah Palin, OJT is okay AIPAC bitch

    We were getting ready to give them more billions despite all this.

    Could recent news be being "managed" as a gift to new President Zardari for domestic consumption among his constituency?
