Hanitty is making a clueless argument.

He is arguing that since UAE is not like Britain, we can not trust UAE as much as the British.

Yet, it is a British Company that has the desire to sell P&O to UAE, which in turn will have management of ports in the U.S. Britain and Australia.

So, how can we trust the British as an ally if they sell port management to untrutworthy Arabs.

Sean's logic lacks logic.

He's spinning away from his original knee-jerk so fast that I expect him to faint.

And while I love you, my friend, let's not pretend that all the facts were known last week by Tony, or anyone else. I am receiving EXACTLY the same talking points from the White House and the RNC, and there are badly lacking. I don't know why all the hostility toward Sean, and I don't like it. But this deal will go through, it will be much stronger in terms of security, and it will occur because questions were raised about a country that a short while ago did grave harm to our country. The early defenders of this deal had no more or less facts than the rest of us, and they still don't. And any confusion or imprecision is due to the secretiveness of the process. You can question this without being disloyal to the president. I resent efforts to demonize Sean, who has supported this administration 99% of the time, and worked hard in 4 states to re-elect the president.

"Sean's logic lacks logic."

Seans is simply a Rush Limbaugh wannabe. His depth is about 1/2" at best.
