Why is it I'm not surprised at all to see Duncan Hunter roll over for AlQaida and decide that we really don't need Dubai anymore ~ not as a foreign invester in our shipping infrastructure, and probably not as our primary base of operations for actions in Iraq and elsewhere in the Middle East.

Or is the man simply "stuck on stupid", as is usually the case when he attempts to grapple with an issue.

Right you are. After this, how can these geniuses continue to permit our armed forces to operate out of the UAE, Kuwait, or Bahrain? Isn't that an even more egregious example of getting foreigners involved in our national security?

You have hit the nail directly on the head.

The terrorists ARE winning this one.

It really is quite scarry what we see happening more and more. How do all our potential and outright enemies view us. A house so divided will fall. These people are mostly acting like they are in their first elective bid, instead of responsible representatives. Is it remotely possible they all, both the House and Senate all want to become like the whale?
