MSNBC: Prince Bandar on his way to the US to see Bush

[doxieone]

They just said it on MSNBC. I looked on the web, and there is no link yet.

Jr. is having Sharon as a guest tomorrow. Having to deal with Bandar and Sharon on the same day - Gee, what is Jr. going to do??

Bandar, of course, is uptight about the 9/11 and the alleged relationships with the hijackers and Saudi Arabia - including donations made by his wife.

[AntiCoup2K4]

Lock Bandar, Sharon, and Junior all in the same room overnight.

...and if none of them walk out, the world is a much better place :evilgrin:

1. The chefs will just have to make extra PB & J sandwiches....

The Prince should be fired tomorrow and Sharon's American Express
card cut up.

12. "Damn straight -- and forget to cut the fikkin crusts off...

or Chimpy will have a hissy fit."

[ThorsteinVeblen]

2. Prince Bandar should be arrested and thrown in Gitmo

if the administration and idiots like Joe Lieberman are serious about defense and national security.

3. Does anyone remember

That before 9/11 there was a story about Prince Bandar and his relationship to the Bush family. I can't find the article but I remember reading that he was jokingly referred to as :Bandar Bush.

Any hints about the article?

6. Prince Bandar considers G.H.W. and Babs Bush to be surrogate parents

Good expose in the New Yorker in the spring...I wish they put more articles online and archived them too. W is like a brother to him. I don't think he had to ask that the Saudi info be kept out of the 9/11 report; I'm sure Bush and Cheney were already willing to do so anyway.

17. I think that article also said

Bandar and Colin Powell are racquetball buddies, and Poppy and Bar were very upset about the allegations about the princess.

[Sagan]

4. ah, looks like Bandar is coming to give Chimpy his orders...

or else to confer with Poppy and Cheney while Junior plays on the tractor outside...

5. Bush Sr. was at the t-ball game yesterday -- there were photos

so I wonder if he is still around town today.

[notadmblnd]

8. I'd be willing to bet my paycheck

... he's there

[NNN0LHI]

7. I suspect that the Saudi ruling family and the Israeli government...

...are a lot better friends than any of us can imagine? What ever is best for business will be the rule of the day.

9. This oughtta be good!

10. Obviously meeting to get their story straight

before one or all are subpoenaed.

[JNelson6563]

11. tonight 9 PM on CNBC

Former CIA agent talks about the corruption in the USA/Saudi relationship. While the announcer was saying what I just wrote there was a pic of Bush with a Saudi prince (not sure which one).

I'm watching it, should be interesting. Wonder how far they will go with it. "Former CIA" sounds like a swat back at Simian & Co. for all the blame-placing, not to mention outting Wilson's wife.

13. Will Baker and Jordan be there? Will they debate how to deal

with the 9.11 families? Will the GOP convention in NYC fly the SA flag? Will the cows at Crawford be consulted?

[madrchsod]

14. ok the lawsuit

by the 9-11 people against the saudi`s. why wasn`t that 28 some pages released? maybe to save the saudi`s a trillion dollars and george 1=2 from testifying...pat robertson should be going out of his mind by now over the saudi`s coming to town..then you`ll have all the rightwing bigots fuming cause a jew is in the whitehouse begging for more money they`ll never repay....... it`s a good thing karl will be there to explain what is going on because by 5 bush will be incoherent. well the job gets tougher each day ,can this c- student pull it off?

15. Here's Rummie and Bandar in happier days

Wonder what they were planning at that meeting?

16. And here's W and Bandar hanging out

down on the pig farm.

Now remind me again, how much money did Bandar's wife give to the two hijackers, who happened to be living with an FBI informant, who didn't have a clue?

18. EVERYONE PLEASE READ ---- IT IS NOT BANDAR

This is the link.

It is the Saudi Foreign Minister.

I "thought" I heard Bandar. I apologize for that.

Tonight on NBC news Andrea Mitchell reported on the Saudi unhappiness wit the report. The PM is to meet with Bush.
