#1 Even if I believe this about Perv, it does not follow that Pakiland itself is an ally.

#2 CIA? What have they gotten right? If they told me it was gonna be sunny out today, I'd take an umbrella.

#3 JHC, the Pervert is no friend of US. Just a typical two-faced muzzie. The CIA is a running joke. FU VietNam ,Cuba and now Iraq. Disband these bunch of jokers.

#4 I can think of quite a number of people that are better allies for the US than Musharrif: Stephen Harper of Canada, John Howard of Australia, Tony Blair of Great Britain, and President Abe (and his replacement) of Japan. Even the government of India is a better ally than the government of Pakistan. Scheuer is a self-agrandizing fool that has about as much credibility in foreign affairs as Lucy van Pelt.

#5 OP: Scheuer is a self-agrandizing fool that has about as much credibility in foreign affairs as Lucy van Pelt.

Please don't knock Lucy. What she made crystal was that every time it looks like you have a clear shot, someone will take the ball away. In contrast, all Scheuer has to offer is a bunch of meandering, incoherent observations of zero predictive value.

#6 There may be "no better" ally, but he still ain't worth sh*t
