political : CHENEY WAS ‘BASICALLY SUMMONED’ TO SAUDI ARABIA BY SAUDI CROWN PRINCE [+] serious ballot by cranky ACTIVE Tue Nov 28, 06 - Sun Aug 23, 09 Contrary to Previous Reports, Cheney Was ‘Basically Summoned’ By Saudi Crown Prince Last weekend, Vice President Cheney traveled to Saudi Arabia in a visit that “was originally portrayed as U.S. outreach to its oil-rich Arab ally.” Cheney made the trip purportedly to discuss a “range of regional issues,” Cheney’s spokeswoman said. The Associated Press reported that Cheney was “seen as a US diplomatic push to stem surging violence in Iraq.” But today’s Washington Post reports that the push for the meeting came from the Saudis, not the other way around: Saudi Arabia is so concerned about the damage that the conflict in Iraq is doing across the region that it basically summoned Vice President Cheney for talks over the weekend, according to U.S. officials and foreign diplomats. What does it say about the nature of U.S.-Saudi relations when the Vice President can be “summoned” by the Saudi Crown Prince? (Think Progress) * * * * * * * * Is it a good thing when the Vice President of the United States can be summoned like a servant by the Muslim, terrorism-funding, dictator of an extreme, Christian-hating theocracy so that Cheney can kiss his ass? Yes, remember, oil is everything No, that is disgusting and unAmerican I'm a neocon, and it's OK if Bush/Cheney do it Ballot #106046 : SEE RESULTS Comment: show your vote with comment?
