He is still the enemy of our enemy and will continue to get U.S. support. But if oil is discovered under his feet, all bets are off.

Musharaf will be a better dictator if he exceeded the oppression of Saddam Hussien. The US could support him more that might make him a powerful leader.

Yes he is better.
Musharraf seems like a laid back kind of guy.
If he were as bad as Saddam, people would not be protesting because they'd be killed.

Saddam hated Al Qaeda.
Musharraf is harboring Al Qaeda.

Yes.
At least he hasn't poisoned-gassed thousands of helpless people, like Saddam did.
Oil has Nothing to do with it.
Do you think we are getting Free Oil from Iraq?
Democrats seem to believe that.

As long as he cooperates with the American government there is no problem with him. If he turns his back on America and does something that cannot be tolerated, like Saddam did, he'll be gone one any or another.

In limited defense of Musharraf; if you're going to oppress your people, there's worse ways of going about it than throwing all the lawyers and politicians in jail!

Of course he is better. He doesn't have oil. However he does have WMD's. So why should he be attacked? Oh, wait...
