Comments on: Bush Delivers Major Arms Sale To Saudis

I love the amount. I can just see Bush sitting there, still struggling to grasp the plot of his favorite book, "My Pet Goat", and being asked how much to charge the Saudis for a huge shipment of weapons. He sets down his book and holds up 7 fingers and says "I''ve been president this many!!!". After being told that''s not the answer to the question, he happily blurts out "One, Two Three!!!", the state department then tells Saudi Arabia that the price is $123 million.

I want to see Bush in his flight suit wearing his Abdul Aziz medal. I want a poster of that on my wall. Please, Mr. President, I''m begging you! Just picture Franklin Delano Roosevelt standing in front of a camera grinning and wearing an Emperor Hirohito medal of honor.

You can tell this story is embarrassing Bush''s fans by the number of times Bill Clinton is mentioned in their posts. When the Bushies'' faces start to turn red, they name the red-faced man from Arkansas.

Bush to Americans:

Obvious dictatorship Saudi Arabia = our new best friend.

Faulty democracy Iran (still the closest thing to a democracy in the Arab world) = the TERROR THREAT of our future, best to bomb them NOW.

Oh, yeah, spreading democracy! One royal family at a time!

Lets have some real fun, let us follow the $123 million check, and see where the money ends up...

Bush gives arms to Saudis. Clinton gave arms to Saudis. The difference is that Bush is giving them arms AFTER 16 saudis attacked us on 9/11.

Yea, they can restrict the rights of their citizens. They can sentence women to 200 lashes for being raped. But hey, Ill still buy their gas and sell them a hundred million dollars worth of weapons.

I am so disappointed. So now who are we to tell any other countries who they are allowed to sell weapons to.

123 million to the guys who gave us the legendary "0/11 hijackers" and the neocons and the bible thumpers are saying "Amen"...

Red, you''ve been with us long enough, you ought to know by now that rick is from Klingon, (same as Texas) he just loves to hear of people dying at the hands of the US military. He needs no reason, it is the act itself he loves, but since there is no real reason he invents them to hide his sadistic predilection.
