Is the U.S. making a mistake by continuing its current relationship with Pakistan?It is amazing how the U.S. continues to use the carrot-and-stick policy with Pakistan which was nearly declared a rogue state before September 11. What has Pakistan delivered so far? Some low-level Al Qaeda terrorists. It is an open secret that the biggie Osama is in Pakistan. What is stopping General Musharraf from handing him over? I'll tell you what. The moment Osama is handed over to the U.S., the U.S. will stop all aid. --

We need to have relationships with all of the countries of the world, including Iran and Syria. We certainly need to ask Pakistan to be more vigilant concerning the lawlessness and their leaky borders. But we must first attend to our own leaky borders and ports. I'm much more concerned with our own backyard, --
Rosemary, Groton, ConnecticutIt sounds like the relationship with Pakistan is managed much the same as any government contractor. Although no product is being provided to the government, payments are still being made for the "work". I think it's a major mistake to deal with countries that have known terrorist sympathizers throughout all levels of their infrastructure from government, to military to police. Jimmy Carter is right

Are they really? They may be pretending to, but I don't believe it. Their agenda is not what they claim. They don't care if we are winning or losing as long as the war profiteers are making money. For this to happen, they need continuous war. --
Linda, Brisbee, ArizonaSecond look? It is obvious they are just getting around to reading it for the first time. Until now, the only information they knew about was what they heard on CNN. --

By delaying action on the report's recommendations Bush can deny bowing to anyone opposed to his own agenda and claim the action as his own. --

What should top the congressional "to-do list" this week ahead of Memorial Day recess?
Impeachment would be nice, but since that isn't likely to happen, let's fund our wonderful troops for a while, without giving away the store. --K.P., San Francisco, California
You have to think like a U.S. congressman on this one, so the top of the list of things to do will be figure out a way to go home a few days early. --Dave, Pennsylvania
Would impeaching Bush and Cheney be too much to ask? --Darren, Trenton, Michigan
