Royal pains

Published: June 9, 2009
How nice that our president met with the king of Saudi Arabia. However, it's a good thing he didn't have to show his passport because if he'd been to Israel, he wouldn't have been allowed to enter the country.
If he'd had to go through customs, he wouldn't have been able to bring a Bible, and he wouldn't be able to wear a religious piece of jewelry.
Since he didn't go on the weekend, he didn't have to worry about going to church because, being a Christian, he wouldn't have a church to attend since they're not allowed.
Meeting with the Saudi king to discuss Israeli relations is like the chickens meeting with the foxes. The Saudi royal family does what it wants, when it wants, without regard for world opinion.
I lived in Saudi Arabia for three years, and every day I thank God I live in America!
