But he has never held the Sauds feet to the fire on Al Qaeda. Nor has he truly rebuilt our military. And his border and immigration policies are right there with Ted Kennedy.
I don't know about the military, but I'm not sure on the Saudis. I think he's working this end of things quietly and gaining some ground. This is just a hunch. Question: There were stories circulating of Saudi fathers kidnapping children from American mothers and refusing to return them. I recall a human interest story of a teenage girl who had returned from Saudi Arabia and this article indicated that her release was due to policy change. I believe the article ran in Newsweek but can recall only the sketchiest details. Do you recall it or any similar article? If this happened, and if the Saudis are releasing children to their mothers then there is cooperation at some level, I figure. I really need to check this out, but if you can recall anything proving or disproving this I'd like to know.
Hope the story on mothers/children is true, but not sure what it has to do with Saudis funding Jihadists.
