Yet despite that, Bush - for all his shortcomings even in this area - was the best friend that Israel has had in the White House since Reagan. And I doubt the Saudis were exactly thrilled with that.

I don’t disagree, but taking money from lobbyists and then saying that they didn’t influence your judgment….
Well it doesn’t wash with me.

How much of US military support went in the front door of the Saudi royal family, and then out the back door to terrorists?

IT IS A VERIFIABLE FACT that the USA, along with Canada and Mexico has enough oil to allow us to “Just say no” to anyone who isn’t 100% with us.

All it would cost is a bit of money. I would pay that, long before I would AIG bailouts…
