Like I used to say, Musharraf will die his political death but whatever ills were alleged there due to his dictatorial rule SHALL stay, democracy or not. Following is the citation of Mr. Boucher, as received by me through a forwarded mail. If this is true.... I rest my case
"The US Assistant Secretary of State, Richard Boucher distinguished himself by undertaking weekly visits to Pakistan - missions that involved great personal hardship and risk to his life. Acting beyond the call of duty , he brokered the NRO deal that allowed some of the most corrupt individuals to occupy the highest places of power in Pakistan. Although it was none of his business, he went out of his way to render unprecedented advice to ensure that the judiciary is not restored and that Musharraf's PCO laws are retained in Pakistan. He acted with remarkable sagacity and used the highest diplomatic skills to convince Pakistani rulers on the social, political and economic benefits of the drone attacks on Pakistan. For his outstanding contribution and unparalleled services in causing systematic harm to the state of Pakistan, he is hereby conferred the award of Hilal-e-Quaid-eAzam."
