2. The sword cuts both ways
If the Repukes take the view that we cannot complain about the guy's political stance because he's of Arabic extraction, then that's racist.

3. it won't work
it will be seen as the act of desperation that it is.

if Bush is trying to garner Arab support maybe he should have Asshead release them from detention.

at this rate, by the time the election comes, they'll all be locked up.

4. The Saudis are not very popular
with liberals and conservatives alike. I think a dem candidate would make points with a lot of conservatives by taking a "get tough on the Saudis" stance.

6. the only people this plays to are the white suburban voters
no one else is fooled.

The Bushies have the "Uncle Toms" for the blacks, the "Uncle Abduls" for the Arabs, the "Uncle Felipes" for the Hispanics, and the "Aunt Tomasinas" for the women, (I forget the name of the Catholic they were shilling for a judgeship).

They are doing this all for the white suburban voter -- old fashioned as hard core racism doesn't work these days.
