First, Congress issues a resolution condemning the Armenian genocide by the Ottoman Empire, which passes in committee, thereby pissing off our allies the Turks.  President Bush opposes this resolution coming to a full vote, but then he goes and gives the Dalai Lama a medal, thereby pissing off our allies the Chinese.  Who will we piss off next, and why?

Would this be a good time to ask about Musharraf?

It's always a good time to ask about Musharraf. In fact, it's way, way past time.

Did Perez nurse at King Abdullah's teat on shafting the USA continuously for 40 years (complete with 36-grit condom), all the while banking literally trillions of petro-dollars?

Maybe Perez learned from pappy Fahd how to piss off the USA, knowing full well we can't do a damn thing about it.

Maybe Perez just ain't no dummy, and sees we've screwed ourselves into playing ball with sleazy, ruthless dictators.

Or maybe I'm just a cynical evil liberal who's read too many Drieuxusian rants.

Seems that America's the one we really need to piss off, cuz we sure be gettin' pissed on.
