Why I am Angry

Those stories really explain to you why I am the Angry Arab. More than 30 of my readers sent me this item in the last two days as they know that this is the kind of news that makes my blood boil, as they say. And notice that those idiot rulers don't even know that the recepients of their gifts can't even keep them. Yet they continue with these obscene practices: "While Bush himself didn't fare nearly as well, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice raked in at least $316,000 in gem-encrusted baubles from the kings of Jordan and Saudi Arabia alone, making her one of top recipients among U.S. officials of gifts from foreign heads of state and government and their aides in 2007." (thanks to all of you)
