Bush refuses to ask the King of Saudi Arabia to intervene in the case of the gang rape victim who has been sentenced to prison and 200 lashes from a whip because she was in public with someone who was not her male relative shortly before the 7 men gang raped her.
Bush is a complete, brown-nosing, rear-kissing, oil-drinking wimpy coward on the subject; NOT a cowboy, and NOT a Texan.
Would you want this guy to be your dad? (And yet, he's the leader of the free world thanks to the Neocons.)

i don't think my wife would let him even come into our yard let alone bear his children, so no...i guess he's able to draw a distinction between Iraq's "rape rooms" and beating (and jailing) a rape victim though...Laura even donned a Muslim head scarf while visiting Saudi Arabia...pathetic

Worse than that happens every day in the middle east. the fact is that a president cannot involve himself with the daily internal politics of other countries. His job is the well being of US citizens. If the king of Saudi Arabia was inclined to do anything about this case, he wouldnt have to be prodded by a foreign leader.

this sort of thing happens all over the Middle East, do you suggest we intervene in every case? When a girl was hanged in Iran for the same reason not one liberal I know condemned the Iranian Government for it. I guess the double standard is alive and well in the Liberal party.

Because Bush needs the Saudis to help us fight terrorism, not sponsor it.
It doesn't do well to piss off those you need help from.
And yes, Bush would make a fine father figure to me, and I'd totally understand.

Typical Hillary in the article. She didn't seem to care about womens rights when Billy Boy was abusing them.

No,but he won't turn on the Saudis. He don't seem to care most of the insurgents(75%) in Iraq are from SA.

It's none of our business how another country enforces their laws. We can be angry about it and protest it but ultimately it's their business and this is one thing the president did right.

Human rights are very obviously not his platform. It's a shame and no wonder the US is a laughing stock.
Babe, why don't you grow up and read a little bit about foreign policy/relations?
