I also have an uneasy feeling. And you're so right, MasterWolf1, about how disgusting it was for the President ofthe United States (and I don't care who he/she is) to bow down in front of the Saudi King or any king. Besides being disgusting and sickening, it's totally inappropriate. But the truth is that this doesn't surprise me because, metaphorically speaking, this President's whole philosophy is to bow down before the world. This is exactly why, for example, North Korea thinks nothing now of having their long-range missiles launched.
I believe that, after we attacked Iraq, like it or not, the Muzzies had a certain respect for President Bush. This could be why we were not attacked since, thank G-d. Can we say the same for this President? I'm afraid not.
