Let's call their bluff

Musharraf and Benazir must be two of the biggest cry-babies. First, Musharraf gives an interview in which he says that if the Jan. 8 election creates a situation that is "unacceptable" to him, he will resign. Then Benazir announces that, poor thing, she really doesn't want to participate in the elections, rather she is doing so "under protest."

Well, I say we call their bluff. Listen, you two. We don't really want you both around. Why can't you get a hobby, or go on that round-the-world trip you've always wanted to take? Or perhaps you need some time in an ashram to "find yourselves." You could even just do us the courtesy of fading away ingloriously. But this foot-stomping hysterical tantrumy drama is just unbearable. So just go away already. We don't want you. Really.
