This just in. Saudi Foreign Minister NOT a Bedouin on a camel.


Iraqi Interior Minister Bayan Baqer Sulagh hailed the "wise" policies of Saudi Arabia, a week after calling the oil-rich kingdom's foreign minister "a Bedouin on a camel".

Who said the Iraqis couldn't handle democracy? Heck, their politicians can flip-flop as good as ours any old day.
And about being snarky enough? A Bedouin on a camel?
That tips the old Snarkmeter with a rating as good as any member of the U.S. Senate hands down.

This also just in:
Saddam gets the vote.
Do you think he'll vote for himself?
Do camels defecate in the desert?
This is the best part:

By coincidence, the referendum on the constitution is being held three years to the day since Saddam was re-elected unopposed as President, in a referendum in which he gathered an impressive 100 per cent of the vote. Less than a year later he was deposed by the US-led invasion.

Bwa-ha-ha. Democracy! Whisky! Sexy!
