Michelle Obama has refused to cover her head with a jihab when meeting with Saudi Arabian dignitaries as she and Barack stopped in Riyadh on their way back from India ... see: Yahoo News Story. This clearly-planned slight combined with our president's poor negotiating skills does not auger well for the Saudi's putting a stop to oil price declines which are damaging our oil-fracking industry. This combo already has probably cost us any such concessions ... but at least someone in this country has the chutzpah to stand up to these 9th century potentates.
(Barack, on the other hand, was again caught chewing gum while in India ... another pointless grade-school slight ... see: Politico Story.)
I don't often compliment our first lady, but in this case, "you go girl!"
Afterthought: I must have forgot ... President Obama hates the oil fracking industry in America ... so why would he try to protect it?

Condoleezza Rice didn't wear a head covering either on this occasion.
And now Michelle Obama is praising the movie "American Sniper." What is she trying to do? Make conservatives like her?
