Can't Be Fooled All the Time

To its incredulous readers Daily Times reported the following:
Musharraf, Aziz assure level playing field to LG candidates
Staff Report
ISLAMABAD: President Pervez Musharraf and Prime Minister Shaukat Aziz on Friday reiterated their commitment to hold the upcoming local council elections in a free and transparent manner.In a meeting, both leaders said a level playing field would be ensured to all contesting candidates and nobody would be allowed to influence the elections
If one goes by:
General Musharraf’s famously bogus referendum; and
Shaukat Aziz’s notoriously rigged by-elections in Tharparkar and Attock

Can anyone with even half a brain believe these ‘elected’ leaders?

What a load of codswallop.
