This is What Democracy Looks Like... Apparently
Bush More Emphatic In Backing Musharraf. He Says Leader 'Believes in Democracy'.
Well, Bush and Musharraf have things in common, they've both stolen elections for example, but only Musharraf has been in the military.
I do love the way the Post reports it though.
President Bush yesterday offered his strongest support of embattled Pakistani President Pervez Musharraf, saying the general "hasn't crossed the line" and "truly is somebody who believes in democracy." Bush spoke nearly three weeks after Musharraf declared emergency rule, sacked members of the Supreme Court and began a roundup of journalists, lawyers and human rights activists.
