I don't like the deal.

I don't like paranoid and uninformed bigots more.

Many here come across that way even when they are trying to explain good points.

I don't respond well to people acting all emotional.

I prefer facts.

People here are reacting with the same ignorance that they did after Alito's first vote.

This deal will not go through. I just could do without the ignorant rants.

[Pukin Dog]

The deal has already gone through. Bush approved it. It's over.

FACT:

From a PR point of view, this deal is a disaster for GWB.

He has already lost a large amount of Americans from even respecting him, did he think this was going to any way impact on this???

If he did not realize this, he is as stupid as the RATS say he is.

As far as your own remarks, I don't want Arabs from the middle east running anything of any importance in this country. If that makes me a bigot, fine.

Pretty soon you're going to come out against profiling Middle Eastern men at airports. Maybe we can start shipping some white collar prisoners down to Gitmo just to even things out. We wouldn't want to look like bigots.

People here are reacting with the same ignorance that they did after Alito's first vote.

No, this is more like the reaction after the nomination of Harriet Miers. I don't know if I have an opinion one way or the other on this issue, but I'm sure Carter thought he had sound reasons for giving up control of the Panama Canal.
