Obama can thank Bush for the the mess in Pakistan as Bush's pushing Musharraf laid the foundation for the Taliban being in position to take control of the country.

And, like in Gaza, the mess in Pakistan shows just how completely wrong Bush was to place so much effort into 'instilling democracy' around the world. His critics argued (and correctly so) that democracy in a country full of religious crazies is worse than a country run by a dictatorship which shared our opposition to Islamic fundamentalism.
