#1 Yewbetcha, we're on it like chickens on June bugs. Why, we're opening a Drapes 'R' Us in Amman tomorrow. A whole chain of 'em across the Middle East. Yessir, we'll have nothing but the best in window dressing in no time. In, lessee, 20 or 30 yrs, I'll even give up my throne. Sorta. Kinda.

So don't worry your little heads about it. It's all under control. Me & my buddy CP Abdullah, just call us the Freedom Twins, we'll see to it.

Nothing to see here, nosirree! Move along. Move along.

#3 The current Jordanian king is young, Western educated and so far as I can tell, pretty pro-western in both words and acts. I'm less than impressed with his mother's PR campaign in the west - I once clicked past Larry King interviewing her and my blood sugar shot up dangerously - but this king is a pretty strong ally of ours, overtly and covertly.
