Talk Like an Egyptian

Big Guy and I have been rehearsing for the past couple of hours for his big speech tomorrow in Cairo. The speech will be a big wet kiss to the Muslim world, which our policy guys say is really in need of a U.S. that gives it a little tongue despite the Koranic promulgations against such Western displays of affection. And if ever there's a leader to act on this kiss, it's Big Guy.

We're also going to slap Iran around over its nuclear program, and by slap around, I mean we're not going to slap Iran around. The Muslims are a welcoming people, and this trip is all about making nice, not making sense, or so Big Guy believes.

Saudi Arabia is an interesting place. Though I'm still trying to figure out how the King is able to read his text through the burqa his female prompter wears.
