We once sold weapons to Iran to help "protect" us. We gave weapons to
the
Taliban. We sell weapons to Pakistan. It's all very stupid when viewed
in
the context of history, which our current president seems to know
nothing
about.

Lots of things seem "stupid" in the Monday morning quarterbacking of
history. You have to remember that previous policies and actions were
based on the conditions at that time and the inertia of foreign
relationships don't change overnight.

Right now is not Monday morning. Conditions do not warrant selling more
weapons to Saudi Arabia, many of whose citizens are as crazy and ****ed
off
as OBL, and are just aching for a shot at the royal family.

If I'm not mistaken, Congress has to approve the sale. Surely the Democrat
controlled Congress will have the same smarts you do.

Apparently, they don't. It would be interesting to take a look at their
corporate contributors.


"The arms sale, which Congress has 30 days to review, would amount to $20
billion worth of weapons, including precision-guided bombs. It is "a pretty
big package, lots of pieces," national security adviser Stephen Hadley told
reporters on Air Force One." http://tinyurl.com/2gjepn

Would it be better if they bought the weapons from the Russians or the
Chinese? Then you'd be bitching about outsourcing more weapons building
jobs.

Those items are built in a couple of somebody's home districts.

Loss of jobs does not justify selling weapons to the country we know is
our
primary enemy in the war on Islamic terrorists. Go back to sleep, John.

Yes, it would be better. Then, we would have yet another reason to place
their country under totally new management, permanently, including their oil
wells, and execute every member of the royal family. On television.

The Harry and Joe circle jerk continues..

Sorry. Screwed up the cut. Attribute to John H. is in error.

Heh.

The basic problem on this group is too many northern boaters with
nothing to do for 6 months of the year (with apologies to those doing
January sea trials in New England).
