I couldn’t help but laugh when I saw this article. You already know that four Gulf leaders are ‘snubbing‘ Obama, or as Bolton says, giving Obama a slap in the face by not coming to his Camp David summit.
Well apparently one of the leaders is using his newfound free time to go to a horse show in London:
WASHINGTON TIMES – King Hamad bin Issa al-Khalifa of Bahrain won’t attend President Obama’s Gulf Arab summit in Washington this week and instead is expected at a London horse show, according to media reports.
King Hamad, along with the heads of Oman, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates, skipped Mr. Obama’s meeting and sent representatives in their place., dealing an embarrassing blow to the White House which hoped to project a show of unity with Middle East leaders.
Rather than meet with the president, King Hamad instead will join Queen Elizabeth at a London horse show, Reuters reported Wednesday.
Bwahahahaha. The only thing that would make this better is if the King of Saudi Arabia joined him at the horse show. That would be awesome.
