Saudi Arabia Prepares for Uproar

Saudi King Fahd, who’s been not quite with this world since 1996 although no Saudi court has yet ordered he be starved to death, is evidently in serious trouble.

There’s news report that all Saudi security personnel has been called for standby.

Which makes me think the “king” is dying because hey, the Saudis never go to their OWN hospitals. The elite are jetted off to America or somewhere where the health care is top notch.

I suppose there’s some sort of expectation of a civil uproar when the king dies. If the Arabs riot when someone puts their left hand on the Koran, goodness knows what they’ll do when a king dies.

And for sure they’ll blame it on George W. Bush.

Saudi King Fahd taken to hospital for tests

RIYADH, Saudi Arabia (AP) — King Fahd was taken to a Riyadh hospital on Friday for medical tests, the Saudi Press Agency said.

The official news agency carried a royal office statement saying King Fahd was admitted to King Faisal specialist hospital in Riyadh for medical tests.

"We ask God ... to preserve and protect" the king, the statement said.

Most Under-Reported Story of the Week

Still Fighting it Out in Washington State

It happened in November 2004. First the Republicans won in Washington state. After as many recounts as it took, the Democrat candidate was then declared the winner.

But of course.

The Republicans took the case to court. Because, yon Ladies and Gems, subsequent research has found that many dead people voted. Then the dead vote has always been the purview of the Democrats.

Who knows, maybe the Repubs will win what was stolen from them.

The state Republican Party and candidate Dino Rossi challenged the election after Gregoire's 129-vote victory, the closest margin of any governor's contest in the nation's history.

The challengers are alleging fraud and worker errors, and want the court to nullify the election, which would lead to a new race between Rossi and Gregoire. Cal Tech political science Professor Jonathan Katz testified the way to tell who really won the election is to deduct illegal votes from both candidates' totals, according to voting patterns in their precincts.

Using that method and relying on the GOP's list of 1,183 allegedly illegal votes, Katz said Rossi actually won by at least 71 votes.

Two expert witnesses for the Democrats countered that the so-called proportional deduction method was flawed and unscientific.

Democrats wanted to block the testimony on proportional analysis, and the two sides spent most of the day arguing about it.

Judge John E. Bridges decided to defer a ruling on whether the testimony meets admissibility standards _ but he let the experts testify in the meantime.

Jackson Case Done; Closing Arguments Next Week
It ended with the prosecution showing the video of the young accuser the first time he was interviewed by the police.

By all accounts it was a blockbuster ending but hey, this is Hollywood. We shall see.

I think there’s a 50-50 chance that Michael Jackson will be convicted for child molestation. I think there’s zero chance he will be convicted of conspiracy to imprison.

IF the jury lets Jackson go then leave him alone forevermore. Allow him to seek out the juicy young boys of dysfunctional families and have his way with them. The boys will get money and have fun and Jackson will be unfettered to indulge his whims as is the right of the rich and celebrated in America.

The victim was only a kid who had cancer for God’s sake. Michael Jackson allowed him to roam Neverland and took him on fancy holidays.

As OJ is left free to murder again, then too let Michael Jackson free to molest.

Time and time again.
