…you saw this, right?

1) Over 90% of of the attacks that are killing U.S soldiers in Iraq are SUNNI inspired. They are, like, a whole different group of people than the Shia, Mr. Bush. And supported by your three-minutes-in-the-closet friends and financial benefactors the Saudis.

2) 15 of the 19 hijackers on 9/11 were from Saudi Arabia, not Iran.

3) Bin Laden - yeah, Saudi not Iranian (and still at large, why is that?).

4) Say 'hi' to Bandar Bush for us.

5) Saudi Arabia, not Iran, was one of the three countries that recognized the Taliban-led government in Afghanistan--yeah that one.

6) Tell you brother to lay off the Thai hookers.

7) Saudi Arabia sought nuclear weapons, and may still be doing so.

Well, now you have.

I think some of the current crop of contenders would do well to emulate John Kerry's direct confrontation with the problematic U.S.-Saudi relationship. When Kerry would point a finger at Saudi Arabia it often produced some of the most enthusiastic applause of his appearances (and yes, by the way, people mostly laughed at his jokes, too).

It's something people seem to find easy to understand when it's plainly stated. Profitable Bush family investments don't neccessarily equate to benefial American alliances.
