Pakistan is still a country in the infancy of its accession into democracy and the wonders of a democratic state and economy but today they made a huge first step in that process, the removal of Musharraf. Too often countries elect leaders that hold onto power against the will of the people and those leaders destroy government and the citizens' faith in it. This was about to happen in Pakistan, but due to the unity of the people behind a common goal they were able to rid themselves of the corrupt leader and start anew. This is an amazing feat and I congratulate all those in Pakistan for having faith in your country, and your government to build a better society. Even though there is still much to do in Pakistan I believe that they have take the righteous first step on the path to democratic salvation.

A vote of confidence for the people of Pakistan for ridding themselves of a corrupt military dictatorship foisted upon them by the neocons.
