I see he didn't learn anything from his last road trip.
Don't drink the fermented mare's milk, Chimp.
And stay away from locked doors . . .

4. Demonstrators are preparing to protest even as we post. |
|
I wonder what kind of brutal crackdowns on protestors there will be in Pakistan? Or, will the government allow protests? What about India?
In any case, Bubble Boy will not see or hear any of them. :(

to step foot in Pakistan.
if i were the secret service, there's no way in hell i'd let the president go to that hornet's nest.

I'd also not let him go to India.India has as many Muslims as in Pakistan.

13. Even Clinton was heavily guarded in Pakistan |
|
I bet Bush visit to Pakistan will be confined to his only two friends in the whole country - Musharraf and Aziz. Even Musharraf is a turncoat...he's already participated in one coup, and now he has the chance for another one - in USA!
