Is this really something that Bush should get involved in?

has made every citizen of the USA a victim of his stupidity and arrogance. I wish he would support these victims. He won't because he is an as-shole and a psychopath.

The case gained international attention last month, with governments around the world issuing statements urging Saudi officials to block the court's decision.

Bush did not stand alone on this matter. This is a definite human rights issue. Though I generally disagree with a lot of his decisions, I stand with him on this. Would hope many more would stand up for the right things.

back at the ranch, Bush is busy removing America's Constitutional Rights.

Somebody ought to tell Bush there are atrocities on a much larger scale going on all around him.

Also the girl is experiencing a miscarriage of justice, an everyday thing for women living in Islamic Muslim countries. Unfair to her and all women living under these conditions.

only gave his $.02 worth because it's Saudi Arabia. There has never been, nor is there now any indication of Bush caring squat about any-body's human rights.

Wasn't his mother a rape victim? I believe a chimpanzee of below the usual level of intelligence for these animals was arrested for the crime. Would explain a lot.

Shouldn't the U.N. be the spokesman for this and not directly from Bush?
And aren't there millions of atrocities that could also be addressed and not just zero on this particular one??

Your monkey brained President has recently been made to look the ridiculosly stupid individual that he really is by his own intelligence services. He's desperate to win a little standing from the American Public who he has been lying to and cheating for years. His decision to involve himself with the case of the Saudi rape victim is an example of just how desperate he is.

'His decision to involve himself with the case of the Saudi rape victim is an example of just how desperate he is.'

Typical of the stupidity out there. Morons who would have people silenced in the face of an atrocity like a gang rape victim being imprisoned and whipped.

It isn't 'desperation' to condemn this it is common decency. The same people whining like fools about it here would be whining if he hadn't said anything on the subject.

I think people are wondering why he is coming out about this particular incident as opposed to millions of others??

...of measuring Bush with a yardstick the liberal elite could never measure up by themselves.


Where was Hillary or Obama on this? Are they so afraid of this President they won't support him on this one thing that he is, undeniably, correct on?

...and you want one of them for a President?

What drivel you speak. Your president wouldn't know common descency from common sense.
