Update 26: Bush Visits Pakistan Amid Protests
By TERENCE HUNT , 03.03.2006, 02:55 PM

Traveling under heavy security, President Bush showed solidarity with Pakistan in the global war on terror Friday as anti-American protests flared across this Islamic nation. The visit probably put Bush closer than he's ever been to Osama bin Laden.

Air Force One flew through the night without lights to conceal the plane's profile as it delivered Bush and his wife, Laura, from India. Two helicopters and a motorcade waited for the president at the airport, but it was impossible to tell whether he used a car or a chopper to get to the heavily fortified U.S. Embassy compound, where he was spending the night.

Anti-American sentiment runs deep in this Islamic nation and the threat of terrorist attacks is ever present. A day before Bush's visit, an American diplomat was killed in a suicide car-bombing at a U.S. consulate in the southern city of Karachi, a hotbed of Islamic militancy.

9. Actually, I strongly suspect that someone from Bush Camp
is meeting with their Old and Dear Friend Osama to plan the next video release.

10. Yeah, isn't it kinda funny that....
* just makes the statement that he has NO doubt BinLaden will be caught....and then he makes a trip to the very area where the man resides(that is, IF he's still alive)....interesting...very interesting...I would NOT be surprised at any little ole thing that turns up in the near future...(no such thing as coincidence)

11. Consider the possible reasons that he made this trip...
I seriously doubt that commander pisspants would really put himself in harms way. I would argue that he knows that he is safe, and furthermore, the idiots that support him without question will embrace this trip as a demonstration of his godlike courage: "Just look at him, so courageous to go into the lion's den. Wow! He really is a very brave man!" Blah, blah, blah, blah. I see this as a well planned attempt at recouping some of his lost support.
