If true, the democrats will erect a statue of Bush for making them the tough on security party.

No he won't. Bush won't veto anything.

Ok, I know sometimes something seems worse than it actually is, and I haven't been following this story. So do I understand correctly that President Bush supports the purchase of facilities at six of our major ports by UAE companies?

Bush just sounded the death knel for this deal. He can't veto things that happen at the state level.

It was foolish of him to make such a statement. Even if he ultimately wins, which I doubt, he will lose significant political face over this.

"Apparently, there is more to this than meets the eye."

If there is, George Bush feels no need to explain it, apparently.

And here I was thinking he was elected to do our bidding. My mistake.
