KANDAHAR, Afghanistan — With a major election just eight months away, power brokers across southern Afghanistan are pressing President Hamid Karzai not to leave office on schedule in 2014, a decision that could complicate the U.S. withdrawal.
In tribal gatherings, protests and private conversations, Afghan leaders from the south have voiced support for an extension of Karzai’s presidency. Some want the April election delayed for several years, arguing that security is so poor that it would limit voter turnout in southern provinces. Others say Karzai is simply the best man for the job and should be allowed to run for a third term — even though the constitution limits him to two.

I called this two years ago. I noted that this khar would try to pull some sneaky crap like this versus putting in his wino brother Qayum on the takhth in his place.
How Toramana and the gang will justify this when they have been preaching party politics and the democratic mantra for a decade and a half, is going to be as entertaining as the Kings of Comedy Tour.
Basically, this validates the story of how this goon and thief views himself as Hamid Shah, and he proved this when he made a monstrosity out of the loya Jirga tradition in Kandahar. He went to Sher e Surkh and had a turban tied around his head to emulate the election of one heroic Ahmad Khan Sadozai.
Oh riiight, it will be like Egypt where they have to usurp democracy to save it. Jokes abound when jesters comment.
