PAGING JOHN McCAIN

Daniel Pipes has a suggestion for political-corruption reform that is long overdue and vital to national security: prohibit anyone representing the US government from going on the payroll – directly or indirectly – of Saudi Arabia after leaving government service. If McCain drops the ball on this one, it’s a golden opportunity for Lieberman or one of the other Democratic presidential contenders to start making his bones as a crusader [word choice intentional] against the nefarious influence of the Saudi regime.
