You'll be subservient to Muslims too, if you ever meet one.

Right Wing Smears Pelosi As 'Subservient' For Wearing Scarf - What About
Laura Bush?

Yesterday, right-wing Internet gossip Matt Drudge posted a photo of Speaker
Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) wearing a headscarf while visiting the tomb of John the
Baptist inside the Umayyad mosque in Damascus.

As Mahablog points out, the right-wing is now seething:

HotAir: "The campaign commercial practically writes itself. Ah well. A woman
must know her place when entering a mosque. . It pains the left too, I'm
sure, to see the most powerful woman in America having to yield, however
slightly, to a misogynistic culture's expectations, but they can't vent
their anger at the people responsible so they'll vent it at Charles or me or
whomever instead."

Instapundit: FEMINIST IN AMERICA, subservient in Syria.

The New Editor: "This picture disgusts me. What message is Nancy Pelosi
trying to send? Are women equal to men, or not? Why is modesty foisted only
upon women?"

Little Green Footballs: "Pelosi in a Hijab. The modern Democratic
leadership. How . quaint."

Apparently they never saw Laura Bush when she visited al-Aqsa mosque in
Jerusalem:

violated his Oath of Office by turning his back on the United States
Constitution; thereby surrendering to the terrorists by undermining American
freedoms,values, and the very foundations of our system of government.
Supporting Bush is treason.
