Crown Prince Abdullah's Visit

I am really disappointed in what I'm hearing coming out of the coverage of the Saudi prince's visit to Bush's Texas ranch. From the sound of things, it's Abdullah making the demands, and the American administration listening. The who's who of the American administration are all there: Bush, Cheney, Rice, Powell, Card.
I also wonder about all the pundits saying that the U.S.' "prestige and credibility" is on the line as much as they do. On the other hand, I think they may have a point. If the administration lets the Saudis push it around, I guess I won't consider them as prestigious anymore, either. On the other hand, the media seems to take the slant that if we DON'T let the Arabs tell us what to do, our prestige will suffer. I fail to see the logic in this.
I think the administration is dropping the ball more and more every day. I'm amazed that no one has come out in the administration and pointed out all the flaws in the Saudi peace plan, nor emphasized the Saudi terror telethon, nor the Saudi financing of suicide bombing. It should be US making the demands, or else just placing the Saudis on the list of states that sponsor terrorism and pointing out that the emperor has no clothes on.
