She is not only mucking up the careful state department strategy for the Middle East, she is trying to cram social correctness down their throats.If she were qualified to be a state department ambassador she would know that women in Saudi aren’t even allowed to drive automobiles.
Wondering why women don’t hold political office in Saudi Arabia is like wondering why black men didn’t hold political office in the Confederacy during the American Civil War.
Mrs. Pelosi also defied tradition and wore a lavender pantsuit instead of the long black robe, called an abaya, that women, Saudi and non-Saudi, have to wear in the kingdom.
Mrs. Pelosi arrived in Saudi Arabia from Syria, where she defied the White House's Middle East policy by meeting with President Bashar Assad and saying "the road to Damascus is a road to peace." The Bush administration has rejected direct talks with Damascus and criticized Mrs. Pelosi for her visit.
Other than that, and misquoting Israel Prime Minister Olmert, things went rather well for a bumbling Secretary of State wannabe.
How long before she takes credit for the release of the British sailors?
