When I look at criticism, I look at what I call the stupidity factor and the integrity factor. As soon as I read a statement like. "Whatever became of the integrity that you consistently herald?" Clearly the poster is inviting analysis on a stupidity or integrity of the comments posted. First I don't see how posting quotes of Ms Rice shows any intrinsic lack of integrity. Only dishonest or stupid individuals post using such logic. Second this statement quoted from your post confirms Ms Rice's observations. While Pakistan President Pervez Musharraf "vowed" in August 2003 to "finish off extremism," he notes, Islamic extremists routinely denounce Pakistani military operations in western tribal areas, resist government attempts to reform religious schools that teach militancy, and harshly criticize Islamabad's cooperation with the US government." The above would suggest free speech is still allowed under Musharraf. And it also confirms the observations of Ms Rice. I would guess President Bush is hated more deeply by a higher percentage of liberals in the US than America is hated by Pakistanis. Micheal Moore's movie 911 proved hating American liberals are among, if not the stupidest people on the planet.
