Ty and them act like there aren't sides here. "the guy who was going to blow up a mom and kids on the bus did this, so our only response if that...."
Oh, bullshit. I just caught you acknowledging that if Musharaf goes, we might get something worse, an idea that never jumps to mind when the Islamic democracy (scarequotes) at issue is Iraq.

Of course there are sides. We know this because any discussion about how to best accomplish our goals immediately turns into a question of which side you're on.
