Barack Obama Moons Queen Repects King Abdullah
BARACK Obama mnight just about be the last person left to believe his own hype.
Compare and contrast his meeting with the sexy Her Majesty Queen of England, head of his nation’s great ally and champion of democracy – a nod and “Yeah – ha-ha – whatever”:
And King Abdulla of Saudi Arabia, head of a regime that opresses women, bans free speech and has lots of oil. Yeah, it really is like Bush has never gone – although he was politer…
So let me see if I understand American protocol in the age of Obama: The First Lady hugs Queen Elizabeth as if she’s some granny at a seniors’ center photo-op, but the President of this republic prostrates himself before King Abdullah as if he’s a subject of the Saudi pseudo-Crown. This is a very weird presidency.
