The case is still ongoing

Moreover, I think its completely intellectually dishonest of you to fall back on the NRO in an effort to defend Zardari. How, pray tell, can you possibly reject Musharraf as being "treasonous" and an "illegal president," then hold up an ordinance he unilaterally issued to vindicate your beloved Zardari? It makes no sense at all.

It makes perfect sense. Mushrraf will do anything to save his kursi & NRO was part of it.

May I also remind you that even the most hardcore Sindhi nationalist wadero isn't blind or stupid enough to think that Asif Zardari hasn't "broken the law" or "done illegal things." If Musharraf deserves jail time, so do Zardari and Sharif (and just about every other major politician in Pakistan).

Maybe you're not aware of this, but Zardari spent about 12 years in jail w/o ever being convicted of anything. Now in context of sentencing guidelines in Pakistan 14 years equals life time in jail.
If you spend 12 years in jail w/o ever been convicted of anything...the man is either totally innocent & spent 12 years in jail for crimes he did not commit or govt is totally incompetent & and failed to prove anything against him. In either case its govts fault.
As for NS, he was elected PM who over thrown by an army chief. Overthrowing elected govt is crime defined as treason and person committing such is eligible for death as per law.
