Maintaining status quo

With all apologies to Instaglen...

Hey, do you remember when we were told that if we voted for McCain it would only mean a continuation of the cozy-ing we do to petrol-dictatorships like Saudi Arabia that help fund terrorism around the globe? Well, they were right.

The Obama administration is supporting efforts by the Saudi royal family to defeat a long-running lawsuit seeking to hold it liable for the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks.

The Justice Department, in a brief filed Friday before the Supreme Court, said it did not believe the Saudis could be sued in American court over accusations brought by families of the Sept. 11 victims that the royal family had helped finance Al Qaeda. The department said it saw no need for the court to review lower court rulings that found in the Saudis’ favor in throwing out the lawsuit.
