In Washington, President Bush praised Musharraf for keeping his word and relinquishing his military post, calling it a "strong first step" toward enhancing democracy in Pakistan.Democracy marches on.
...if by a "Liberal" they mean someone who looks ahead and not behind, someone who welcomes new ideas without rigid reactions, someone who cares about the welfare of the people -- their health, their housing, their schools, their jobs, their civil rights, and their civil liberties -- someone who believes we can break through the stalemate and suspicions that grip us in our policies abroad, if that is what they mean by a "Liberal," then I'm proud to say I'm a "Liberal."

Musharraf Sworn in As Pakistan President
Pakistan's Pervez Musharraf retired from the military and is now serving another 5 year term as President. Now instead of a military dictator, Pakistan has just a plain old vanilla dictator in charge.
he may not be a military dictator anymore but he still heads a military dictatorship.
