As the song goes:
You got to know when to hold em'
Know when to fold em
Know when to walk away
Know when to run...
This hand stinks...best to just fold at this point.

Are there enough votes to override?Yes.
This is very strange, the only thing both the Dims & GOP have agreed on this year and he finally threatens a veto. Something smells ....

"Apparently, there is more to this than meets the eye." UAE could be a staging area for airstrikes and special forces operations against Iran.

Naw, the Dems will shut up once they realize that the only US company that could actually fulfill this contract is Halliburton.

Geez, why does he have such a woody about this?Because in Establishment Republican minds, making money trumps all else.
Including national security.
How Clintonian.

He or his family/friends probably stand to make a lot of money on this deal. ;)

Bush won't veto a spending bill...but this one he will? He is beyond stupid on this matter & illegal immigration. If this goes through, any attack on those ports in the future will be his fault.

A lot of spineless idiots are raising hell about something that is not a problem.. Using that "logic," I guess you also think it was OK for Carter to give away the Panama Canal.

If there is, George Bush feels no need to explain it, apparently. We'll see what happens. The storms on this issue started on a long weekend. Yes, the president does need to explain what is happening here.

Dubai is one of the only Arab states that I would trust. Its just port management services for Crissake
Why arab anything? When they begin to allow christianity and judaism to be openly recognized and worshipped, as we allow them to do here, then they can bid on our ports. It goes both ways, pal. You will lose this one.

Oh jeez... GWB is bound and determined to destroy all credibility with the right.
What happened to all that "We will fight any regime that harbors or supports terrorists!" rhetoric? That determination is sure beginning to sound hollow about now.

My guess? We need a threat to keep government protecting us. This is one of the last windows to be shut, and it looks like he(and others) want to keep it open...
