Japan Attacks Pearl. We "eviscerate" Japan.

Saudi Attacks NYC/DC. We invite them over for BBQ.

If the Bush administration had any balls, we'd have declared war on the Saudis by now.

And the Arabs and the wahhabis laugh at the US!

Before this thing is over, we WILL have to have it out with Saudi Arabia.

This to me is an impeachable offense. Call my values twisted, but I think covering up a hummer by lying under oath isn't quite at the level of allowing a woman who funneled money to mass murderers of americans to skate. But that is just me.

This should lead the newscast of every political show for the next decade if need be, if this administration refuses to act. I don't give a rip about our relationship with the Saudis. I know Bush has to for geopolitical reasons.

We are already ignoring the fact that 15 of 19 were from S.A. Pretending it is good to ignore the Ambassador's wife giving the terrorists financing money is something even a stadium full of spin doctors could not accomplish.

Why wait? It's been 14 months after 9/11 and the Bush Admin has stonewalled all evidence of Saudi culpability in the Saudi Attacks on America.

Obviously the Saudi money in the USA, (860Billion$, according to the lawsuit filed by the families of the victims of the Saudi Attacks on America) is worth more than the lives of all the Americans killed in NYC and DC.

Screw Later, what about now? How many Japanese had been killed a year after Pearl Harbor? How many Saudi Royals have been even questioned. Hell, we gave them an express flight out this country without even questioning them. This news about the wife has been known for a year.

Yet Abdullah and Bandar have been to Crawford more often than anyone else.

Not in D.C. it isn't. It is all about support for the war on Iraq and they don't want to piss off someone so close to Israel as well.

Scripted B.S. from the White House as usual. They do not want to piss them off at all at this point.

I wouldn't be surprised at all if the Saudis threatened to yank all their investements out of our markets if we don't behave ourselves and continue to kiss they filthy royal-oil asses. Such a move (involving trillions of dollars) could conceivable send the stock market into a nose dive the likes of which we've never before seen, and we'd be in big trouble for quite some time. Of course, the bargains on great companies would be incredibly tempting, and nearly endless. In a way, I'd love to see those Saudi dollars out of our faces for good.

This has long been one of my fears. It wouldn't even have to be "the Saudi Government" per se, but even just a cabal within one of the ministries, say.

Too many Saudi connections. Unlike Egypt, which has long cracked down on radical Islamists--who have been responsible for such outrages as the assassination of Egyptian President Anwar Sadat--the Saudi government officially sympathizes with them.

The Saudis are NOT our friends.

Just because we buy their oil doesn't mean we have to do anything else for them. First, we shouldn't allow any of them in our country. Second, don't give them any money.

Bush promised that we would go after any country that harbored or supported terrorists. What a joke! Bush is obsessed with Iraq, and refuses to see that our enemy is not one country, but an idealogy. Islam is the enemy.

And Saudi is the Home Base (alqaeda) and Foundation (alqaeda) of Islam.

You forgot about the selling of nuclear secrets to a communist dictatorship (China) in return for (1996) campaign funds. ...Talk about an impeachable offense!

Actually, he at first accepted the rather generous check--I think it was about $10 million or so.

The problem surfaced though when this Saudi "prince" made a comment to the press right afterward, essentially blaming America's support for Israel for the attack.

At that point, Giuliani returned the check.

They worship 'Allah,' while binge drinking the finest cognacs and engaging in wild sex orgies. Men, women, boys, underage girls, dogs, goats, sheep .... and tons of cocaine and hashish, and all sort of other illegal drugs.

Much of this is done in Europe though they do recruiter/dupe fair white women to take a vacation to Saudi Arabia where they are forced to enter the harem.....

Lots of stuff there. But distill this down for me: What is holding up massive implementation of Hydrogen Fuel Cell technology?

I was not promoting Clinton. Clinton is another fine piece of work. Clinton was not being impeached for selling out to China though, even if he should have been.

Speaking of selling out to China... look to the Bush clan for help in that area....

What I am suggesting is that people were speaking of impeaching Clinton for just perjury alone. This administration is aware that the ambassador's wife funnelled money to the terrorists who killed 3,000 fellow citizens, and this isn't getting more than a cursory examination?

Maybe it is because it is so mind boggingly obscene?

I think I will repeat it again. The daughter of the King of Saudi Arabia, wife to the ambassador, was using her Washington banking account to funnel $3,500 a month to terrorists who flew into the Pentagon, and our administration does not want to not only not do anything about it, but to quash the investigation

Again, if Clinton did this... well, he probably would have done this too,... but at least some people would quit acting as Bush love slaves and worry about our country being sold out to Saudi Petro dollars.

First a bunch of cr*p against Bush, now the standard screed about "alternative energy sources being stopped by the 'oil companies'".

Are you SURE you're in the right place?
