Obama Gets His Bling On

President Obama landed in Saudia Arabia yesterday to kick off his Rock the Casbah Middle East Tour 2009. His first show of the tour happened at Saudi King Abdullah’s ranch in al-Janadriya, just outside Riyadh. King Abdullah, in an act of stately hospitality and generousity, gave President Obama the ultimate bling, the King Abdul Aziz Order of Merit. During the presentation, you could hear the distant wailing of a mad Brit Prime Minister trying to get a US coded DVD to play at 10 Downing Street.

The whole scene reminded me of a music skit from the Comedy Central show, Mind of Mencia. Something about rich Arabs and heavy gold rope chains rang a bell. How about that! The video just happens to be right here. Don’t watch it if you are easily offended, hate rap music spoofs, hate cultural insensitivity, don’t like midgets, or are a member of Greenpeace.

In a demonstration of Republican party responsiveness to Meghan McCain‘s expert political advice, even before she became a Republican, former President George Bush got his bling on in Riyadh back in 2008.
