Would You Like to Come Upstairs and See My Fatwa? Pakistani President Sanctioned for Flirting with Sarah Palin

On this SNL video of Tina Faye playing Sarah Palin, she complains about a couple of Pakistani guys “literally embracing her.” It appears that it was more than comic relief. Pakistani cleric Maulana Abdul Ghafar has issued a fatwah against Pakistan President Asif Ali Zardari for “unIslamic” flirting with Palin in New York.

Zardari explained “you’re gorgeous” upon meeting Palin and, when asked to keep shaking hands with her for the cameras, he said, “If he’s (the aide) insisting, I might hug you.”

This type of thing never happened with Madeleine Albright or Margaret Thatcher. Zardari clearly needs to get out more, but he may want to avoid Lal Masjid mosque.
