Saudi non-scarf non-outrage escalates


The media rules for whether there's more OUTRAGE when a visiting woman does or doesn't wear a scarf visiting Saudi Arabia get more and more difficult to follow. Anyway, in this picture of the US House Speaker John Boehner delegation visit to Riyadh from a meeting with the Deputy Crown Prince Mohammed bin Nayef, Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen (R-FL) is not wearing a scarf. But since she's not Michelle Obama, the hyper-interpretation machine stays dormant.
