Bush Waives Saudi Trafficking Sanctions
(09-21) 18:40 PDT WASHINGTON, (AP) --
President Bush decided Wednesday to waive any financial sanctions on Saudi Arabia, Washington's closest Arab ally in the war on terrorism, for failing to do enough to stop the modern-day slave trade in prostitutes, child sex workers and forced laborers.
In June, the State Department listed 14 countries as failing to adequately address trafficking problems, subjecting them all to possible sanctions if they did not crack down.
Of those 14, Bush concluded that Bolivia, Jamaica, Qatar, Sudan, Togo and the United Arab Emirates had made enough improvements to avoid any cut in U.S. aid or, in the case of countries that get no American financial assistance, the barring of their officials from cultural and educational events, said Darla Jordan, a State Department spokeswoman.
Cambodia and Venezuela were not considered to have made similar adequate improvements. But Bush cleared them nonetheless to receive limited assistance, for such things as combatting trafficking. In the case of Venezuela â€â€It's like hell vomited and the Bush administration appeared.

Nothing that this spawn of Satan does anymore surprises me. Why would Bush slap sanctions on Saudi Arabia? He wouldn't want to be jilted by his mistress clown prince or create a rift with his oil buddies the Bin Ladens.
