I smell a rat about this overnight in Pakistan
Like a false attempt on Georgie's life to see if it helps his poll numbers.
I don't put anything past this crew!

3. Reminds me of when Nixon risked his life going to Cairo
He had phlebitis and the Navy had to have a hospital ship on standby in case he threw a clot. Talk about reaching for the sympathy vote. This was back when Watergate was heating up.

5. I have a funny feeling about that too
WHY is he going to Pakistan, of all places?

Jeez, they hate him there, that would be one place to go for an assassination attempt.

8. Gotta pull a rabbit outta some hat?
Or an Osama outta some cave? Poll numbers sinking so fast it will come to that or an event to justify (to them) Martial Law and lots of bombs over Iran.

10. I suppose he is going there to assert his dominence.
Nothing asserts power more effectively than going someplace where you are not wanted and thumbing your nose at those who don't want you there.

7. Well, we know he's not there for any legitimate reason. It certainly
isn't because he's so damn BRAVE..:eyes: The man never leaves the WH unless he's surrounded by MILITARY or "invited" guests. It's for some BOGUS reason and I'd say your scenario FITS. :thumbsup:

14. Oh Lordy, Lordy. He's going to go and capture Bin Laden all by
himself! Either that or Bin Laden will be so scared by Bush being in the neighborhood that he'll turn himself in. It will be a miracle!

19. False attempt?
There are millions of people in Pakistan that would gladly do the deed, so why was he sent there? Maybe his handlers really want to get rid of him, because EVERY TIME he opens his mouth he is a liability.

22. I'm sure an Iranian- financed Pakistani extremist plot will be discovered
at the very last minute, and foiled, of course, with lots of arrests.

This way, both leaders get what they want: Musharraf gets to put some political enemies behind bars and Bushie gets a poll number uptick and increased fealty of the American poeple--plus another reason to attack Iran.

The CNN headline for the story on Bush staying for his overnighter:

Bush Will Not Cut and Run
