The First Lady Rocks!
Laura Bush in Saudi - promoting greater cancer awareness, meeting breast cancer survivors and attending the signing of a memorandum of understanding under which Saudi Arabia will formally join the US-Middle East Partnership for breast cancer awareness and research. Her four-nation tour which began in the United Arab Emirates includes Kuwait and Jordan. It also aims at restoring the 'US image in the Middle East battered by the US-led invasion of Iraq'.
Debbie Schlussel had this earlier; the photos aren’t from Saudi Arabia, they’re from the United Arab Emirates—the country/caliphate that is currently trying to buy a controlling interest in the NASDAQ stock exchange.

--Good for Laura Bush.
Who else can put out such a startling image to the world? Notice the contrast: A smiling woman - in pants - and makeup - relaxed and comfortable - not afraid to show her face to the world. No head covering.
Next to her ? Images of slavery.
These women beside her are speaking in the only way they are capable of at this moment. They are showing the world they are survivors in chains.
This picture is worth a thousand words. Listen with your eyes.

Amen.
When I first heard of this visit that is exactly what I thought we see. Instead our First Lady not only defied "sensitivities" but dared to show some leg to boot!
Laura rocks!

True enough, 10men.
But this makes me see red:
"restoring the 'US image in the Middle East battered by the US-led invasion of Iraq'.
Battered? America liberates a country from a genocidal thug and their image is battered?
By the way, I borrowed one of your U.N. gun-control items and put it up at A Western Heart, with attribution. :-)
She sure does 10men, those jihadist loonies must be gouging their eyes out after see the pants, oh my...
no wait, they won't gouge their eyes out, they'll be beating their wives for it instead, go figure.
