If The Dam Breaks Open…

The Saudi visit began with a traditional sword dance. The photo reminds me of a “ladies choice” dance at a high school prom.

Yesterday the President gave a speech in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.  I listened to some of his speech broadcast on NPR.  After a few minutes I could take no more of the cloying, ingratiating, currying-of-favor language.  I switched to a rock n roll station.

I offer this video from Pink Floyd as comment upon the content of the Presidents speech.

See you on the dark side of the moon…………………..
