if they impeach Musharraf.

WASHINGTON, Aug 7: The US State Department on Thursday advised all the parties involved in the move to impeach President Pervez Musharraf to ensure that their actions were consistent with the rule of law and the Pakistani constitution.

Spokesman Gonzalo R. Gallegos indicated at a regular briefing that the US was distancing himself from President Musharraf when he declared: �We will continue our close ties with the democratically elected government of Pakistan.�

The US official also said the United States did not believe the move to impeach the president might have a negative impact on the situation along the Pakistan-Afghan border.

However, he did not say that the United States would oppose any move to impose a state of emergency in Pakistan when reminded that under the Constitution the president was entitled to do so and also to dissolve the parliament.

�Any action should be according to the rule of law and consistent with their Constitution. And this is a matter for the Pakistanis to decide,� said Mr Gallegos when told that the Pakistani Constitution allowed the president to impose a state of emergency.

Why should they follow those things when our government doesn't follow the rule of law and our own constitution?

I wish we could test our impeachment process right now.
