King Abdullah Is Out

After two successful back surgeries at New York Presbyterian Hospital, Saudi King Abdullah bin Abdul-Aziz has finally left New York. The King reportedly arrived in Morocco yesterday and is resting in Casablanca. The Saudi Press Agency gave no date for when the 87-year-old would return to his kingdom. So no more royalty in New York, but on the plus side this couple can probably head back to the Waldorf-Astoria. Not that they would want to right now.

King Abdullah Is Out?
Funny, he didn't look gay to me.

Was fun watching George W Bush dancing in Saudi Arabia
with a sword while these royal family were watching GWB being
a smiling clown.
Politics make strange bedfellows,however Bush dancing with the sword
was just after the Saudi's beheaded a female servant for stealing .
Killing her against a worldwide outcry to save her.

I often wonder if it was the same sword that Bush was dancing with that
decapitated that servant. Anyway it's all on Youtube.

Yet he probably didn't even go down to ground zero to see his (and his Bush family partner's) handiwork at ground zero.

Also, nice "Sheik Yerbouti" hat, dude. Hope you're paying royalties to the Frank Zappa estate.
