9:55 A.M. CST

THE PRESIDENT: Laura and I extend our deepest condolences to the family of Benazir Bhutto, to her friends, to her supporters. We send our condolences to the families of the others who were killed in today's violence. And we send our condolences to all the people of Pakistan on this tragic occasion.

The United States strongly condemns this cowardly act by murderous extremists who are trying to undermine Pakistan's democracy. Those who committed this crime must be brought to justice. Mrs. Bhutto served her nation twice as Prime Minister and she knew that her return to Pakistan earlier this year put her life at risk. Yet she refused to allow assassins to dictate the course of her country.

We stand with the people of Pakistan in their struggle against the forces of terror and extremism. We urge them to honor Benazir Bhutto's memory by continuing with the democratic process for which she so bravely gave her life.

END 9:57 A.M. CST

1. Didn't put himself out much, did he? Of course he couldn't say

what he wanted to say.

[Buzz Clik]

2. At least he got dressed. I half expected to see him in his pajamas and slippers.

3. Pajamas and slippers?

More likely a dirty t-shirt and boxer shorts, whatever he was wearing during his last visit with his good friend Jim Beam.

10. As soon as he finished the last sentence, BOOM! he was gone!

Exit, stage right, faster than Snagglepuss ever thought about managing it. He must've been concerned about the ice cubes melting in his tumbler of Scotch and watering it down past acceptable Napoleonic standards.
