Musharraf enforces American-style democracy, has hand-picked Supreme Court legitimize his presidency

Here's a fun game: let's compare headlines from today with ones from 2000, shall we? (you do remember the elections of 2000, don't you? If not, take a glance at the image to the right from the protests back then.)

Today:
Pakistan Court Clears Musharraf for New Term

2000:
U.S. Supreme Court Rules in Bush's Favor

Today:
Pakistan court tosses election challenge

2000:
Election 2000: U.S. Supreme Court Declines to Review Federal Questions of Lawsuit

Yes, we are truly spreading American democracy throughout the world.
