No one trusts Bush to do anything competently any longer. Even Republicans are telling him not to show up for their campaign events although, in true Republican fashion, they will slavishly accept money that he raises from his BASE LOL. Gee, what a realistic description of AQ back then: "W's enemy was a small, irregular force of less than 10,000 men, most of them poorly armed. They had not a single plane in their air force, not one ship in their navy, and barely a handful of artillery. The most modern equipment they could boast were cast-offs from our own forces that were two decades or more out of date. Their training was erratic. They were outcasts, even among their own people, with little support and no ability to make or repair their equipment." LaLaLand Bush has been desperately trying to 'pump them up' into the WWIII adversary. Bush is AQ's best PR man, even better than OBL.

Musharraf is extremely sensitive about possible foreign military intervention inside his borders... today.reuters.com
