Obama’s Bling Bling
President Obama was awarded Saudi Arabia’s highest honor yesterday — an elaborate gold necklace and medallion fit for a king or a rap mogul.
“Goodness gracious, that’s something there,” an awestruck Obama said when a royal aide approached him with the massive chain.
A beaming King Abdullah — who hosted Obama in an ornate meeting room decked out with opulent chandeliers, marble columns and engraved mirrors — presented the gift to the president…
…”Those are only given to the very few friends of the king, and you are certainly one of those,” Abdullah said.
