“The Un PC Reality”

Sen. Obama keeps invoking the administration’s past support for Pevez Musharraf and the purported policy of sweeping under the rug, blaming it for the devolution of Pakistani Islamist’s indemnity towards the United States. This line of rationale is totally PC, Bridget Johnson argues in her article at Pajamas Media today, as the current government is in power democratically and radical clerics stoking the sentiment are only promoting theocracy:

And — here’s the harsh reality — they were emboldened by the departure of Musharraf, not singing the praises for renewed civil liberties. The bomb targeted the lower floor of restaurants at the Marriott, packed at that hour with Muslims breaking the Ramadan fast. Some of the other dead, such as Czech Ambassador Ivo Zdarek, died in the resulting fire that spread to the rest of the hotel. The intentionally-timed bombing didn’t just target foreigners, and the hotel wasn’t bombed because of lingering anger at Musharraf suspending civil liberties. It was a challenge to the new government, because they know how much weaker things are at the top now.
