Benazir Bhutto Killed in Suicide Bombing

From CNN...

Pakistan's former Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto was assassinated Thursday outside a large gathering of her supporters where a suicide bomber also killed at least 14, doctors and a spokesman for her party said.

While Bhutto appeared to have died from bullet wounds, it was not immediately clear if she was shot or if her wounds were caused by bomb shrapnel.

She was a very brave woman indeed. They had been dogging her with murderous intent for weeks and killing hundreds of innocent bystanders in the process.

I try to avoid cliches but there's no way else to say it. She and all of them died for democracy.

Indeed Monique!
The history of violence that has dogged the entire Bhutto family is simply unbelievable. A true heroine for the ages. She knowingly and willingly walked into the lions den armed only with her beliefs and her values.
As Hillary Clinton and Oprah sit atop the list of most admired women in America.
If that doesn't make one sick....
