From The News:
Kasuri says Musharraf contest polls as civilian
NEW DELHI: If Pakistan President General Pervez Musharraf decides to contest the 2007 elections he will do so as a civilian, Foreign Minister Khurshid Kasuri has said.
Musharraf would give up his uniform if he decides to contest the 2007 polls, Kasuri told an Indian channel.
"The President himself was the first to admit that head of state should not be in uniform. He may contest the second term but I think it will be without the uniform because he has said so," Kasuri said.
Referring to Musharraf's speech on the issue, Kasuri said the President had given a few reasons for being in uniform and one of them was improvement of relations with India and the peace process, adding "there is a lot of merit in what he says."

Oh really! The other day he said the constitution allows him to wear his jacket. This is could be a good excuse forever.
May I suggest that all the nonpolitical bloggers to start writing a blog like yours and definitely the world and Musharraf will hear. At this moment he is fooling the illiterate masses in Paksitan but when the educated and young bloggers would join hands definitely they will make a difference.
Mai's steadfatness is an example. Musharraf had to refuse interviews while he was abroad because everyone was asking about Mai. Lets creat a blog ring to rant about Military politics in Pakistan.
If agree please write to my_janjua@yahoo.com
