I agree with you. I believe GWB knows that the Saudis are more involved than has been let on, and I have faith he'll handle this problem well too (glad it came out after the elections or the Dems would have made a huge deal out of it). It's the same thing with the White House's "islam is peace" pronouncements - they know the whole war is really a clash of cultures, Islam versus everyone else, but it really isn't "politically correct" in the true sense of the word to say it out loud.

I am thinking that having the warning issue from Putin's mouth-was a little beyond brilliant. The middle east is in deep, deep 'doo-doo'. It was probably bad enough being blackmailed and extorted by the radical islamists, now these rich oil shieks (shakes, sheeks, shams) turn around and find themselves looking down the barrel of world awareness of their treachery. Verbally delivered by Putin standing beside the President of the United States. Not fun.

Wouldn't it be interesting if sometime in the next couple of years the Saudis took delivery on some U.S. military equipment that proved to be "defective"? Rockets that had the nasty habit of boomeranging back toward their launchers, or maybe veering off-course toward important Saudi Royal Family residences, for example?

Do you really think it is a matter of 'Political Correctness' on the part of the Bush Administration? I don't think so. I sense that the Bush Administration (secretive from the beginning) is playing close to the chest all of the things that are known regarding the Evil Saudis.

It would be extremely unwise for the Bush Administration to play the Democrats little intellectual pursuit. What you hear from the Liberals and other Bulshevichs is "Why not attack the Saudis, Why not attack North Korea, Why not Attack the Sudanese or the Chinese... blah blah blah" I hear this argument all the time. And my response is a blank stare. Because as they say 'loose lips sink ships'.

But I think it is okay to say at this point that we are taking it 'One Conflict at a time'.

And the Saudis are on our ----- LIST!!

I believe he will do nothing about the Clintons because they have dirt on the old man. I believe he will not do anything about illegal immigration because he wants hispanic votes. I believe he'll do nothing about Saudi Arabia because when the royals are gone the fundamentalist will take over. I believe, I'll have another drink and play on the internet.
