Congratulations, Secret Service! No brawls with whores during Obama’s whistle-stop in Kabul. OK, it wasn’t an overnight visit…

It was inspiring to hear Obama invoking the usual idealism during his spiel from Bagram Air Base. The event was nicely managed insofar as there were no blood-piercing screams during his speech from detainees being tortured.
Oh – that’s right. There isn’t any more torture in Afghanistan….

The whores in Kabul probably heard that the SS are cheapskates who will try to stiff them.
Or maybe the Secret Service arranged a Pre-Payment Plan?
They don’t have whores in Kabul. They have young boys in lipstick and burkas called Bacha Bazi Boys. These boys are owned by the elite political and military leaders and are provided to their guests for free.
More lyrics:
Mirrors on the ceiling,
The pink champagne on ice
And she said “We are all just prisoners here, of our own device”
And in the master’s chambers,
They gathered for the feast
They stab it with their steely knives,
But they just can’t kill the beast
Last thing I remember, I was
Running for the door
I had to find the passage back
To the place I was before
“Relax, ” said the night man,
“We are programmed to receive.
You can check-out any time you like,
But you can never leave! “
I guess that is the Afghan version of “straight and narrow.”
