I got this from Bill Maher on Real Time tonight. Bush speaking today from Delhi said
"I believe that a prosperous, democratic Pakistan will be a steadfast partner for America, a peaceful neighbour for India, and a force for freedom and moderation in the Arab world.” As Bill Maher pointed out, "Pakistan is neither free nor Arab." Oops.

Well, the "freedom" thing seemed to rest on the premise of Pakistan becoming "prosperous and democratic", of which it is currently neither. So it sounded like calling on Pakistan to act and change itself, and pointing out the benefits to the world at large.
The Muslim == Arab slip is pretty much the type of dumbassery I've come to expect from planting the president behind a microphone. Yet they keep doing it.
