nobody likes losers

tom brady, peyton manning and even the lowly detroit lions are better than the pathetic pakis ......

...... nobody, including me, likes losers - so i spent the afternoon watching the patriots and the colts fight it out - what a game !!..... i tuned in to geo and ary during the breaks to hear shahid masood, the blubbering fogie who ran for president, the mullah with the yellow table cloth on his head, and other assorted losers whine and bitch like menopausal women who have never had sex ...... what a waste of time! ...

..... for now i am putting my money on musharraf - he seems to be a winner ........

...... musharraf zindabad ! .... down with abdul paki who is nothing but a big fat loser !

just to recap..

He had no Choice!
Bilal Musharraf October 14, 1999

A personal perspective on the suspension of parliament
My father is a self-made man and I wish to state this up front that he has made a conscious effort to never abuse his influence for personal gain. I say this unabashedly and as a matter of knowing that he has a reputation of being thoroughly professional. My immediate family
has made do with the income of a military officer and there have been no complaints. There is only relief that he has made it this far without compromising his ethics. Both my sister and I are married and settled in our own lives. Today, he is the Chief Executive of Pakistan.

Why hasn't there been a single person who has been able to introduce fundamental reforms? How long can the teeming majority of unemployed and impoverished be ignored? How can we even begin talking about the 'quality' of life, when we fail to address the fundamental 'sanctity' of life.

Accountability must take place, and bringing in competent individuals to key positions is a decision that should not be taken in haste. Time WILL reveal the sincerity of purpose of individuals in question and actions will speak louder than words to give each of us confidence. I have one request though, and I would not say this if it was not absolutely crucial at this time. Pakistanis, wherever they are abroad, need to understand that this is a very unique point in Pakistan's history. We need to make the world appreciate the context in which the much needed reforms will be undertaken.

Victory or Death.


Seeing as how you're in flint MICHIGAN, shouldn't that be lions or redwings?

Imposition of Martial law/emergency after ruling this country for 8 years is a failure on part of Musharraf. This is the begnining of Musharraf struggle to prolong his rule and, arresting lawyers, politicans, human rights activist proves it. If he really thinks that he has done something good for this country for the last 8 years then he should step down as army chief and contest the election like a man. Unfortunatelly he does not have the balls to do so. Lastly, Pakistan army is equally responsible for all this because they support Musharraf

It is really sad that Salman Aneel seems to have not learned anything as a student in America--I wish that money could be spent on someone else who was willing to learn rather than blindly support a man who is guilty of more than Benazir, Nawaz or any of the politicians--if Salman doesn't get it or doesn't want to get it then perhaps nobody can teach him.

Living in America he is not aware of the situation--people are being denied basic freedoms and rights--there is no water or even a toilet where respectable human rights activists (NOT politicians) are being detained. It is not the politicians Musharraf is fighting (Benazir is almost complicit) neither is it the extremists--he is fighting the truth, justice and the intelligentsia--his targets are the judiciary, media, lawyers and human rights activists.

"Can anyone tell me what are we fighting for? With whom we are fighting?"(writer)

I will tell you what 'we' are fighting for and whom we are fighting.

'We" are fighting for job security to keep 'ourselves' in perpetual personal power -- 'we' are fighting for the celebrated one-man rule of 'enlightened moderation' -- that has done so much 'enlightening' to the country for the past 8 years -- that today 'we' have to re-employ such dark unenlightened draconian measures as "Emergency" that we had to employ in 1999 in order to save 'our' original COAS job.

WHy? -- because 'we' possess a personality disorder that compels 'us' to exhibit a pathological compulsive thirst for absolute personal power -- that even after eight years of unbridled one-crummy-man dictatorship -- has not been quenched -- and will never be.

Why -- because 'we' are a one-man 'control freak' who would not let go the country from 'our one-man' bloody talons -- even after 8 long years of being an absolute facetious do-gooder monarch -- 'we' still have to crave for 5 more years of this halucinogen addiction -- for which 'we' have to mount yet another hijacking -- this time of our own Supreme Court on November 3 2007 -- to save once again - OUR JOB with all its perks and presidential promotions -- for which 'we' did the original hijacking in 1999.

Now -- that simply shows how intellectually, morally and politically bankrupt 'we' were then in 1999 -- and that 'we' STILL are now in 2007.

As to the question whom 'we' are fighting? -- 'we' are carting away our biggest enemy -- the Bar terrorist Aitzaz Ahsan in a police paddy wagon to jail -- while 'our' gracious Maulana Hazrat Fazllulah na-murhoom is herding around hawking freely 'our' jawans -- as captured cattle -- from the barn of that -- once-used-to-be -- an elite Pakistan Army.

But little do 'WE' know that Pakistan is not Myanmar-- despite two times 'our' Myan ne mara.

Neither the average Pakistanis is a silent suffering monk -- nor Pakistan is a remote jungle that the rest of the world will leave it alone to its fate in hands of a tinhorn dictator -- who loves to be infested with the Q-fever parasites -- that are about to kill the very same body that they parasitize on -- with their flawed fatal farce idiotic 'advice'.

All hell has already broken loose all over the world. This time Mr. Musharraf has bitten more than he can chew -- thanks to his crummy advisors like that bank-teller Shaukat Aziz and that melancholic mediocre Shujaat Husain.

Q: Do You Have a Substitute?

A: The way Musharraf has been running country for last one year, even a donkey can do the same... Not a single positive step, not a single good news... Can you enlighten us if you know of any?
