The winner of this fiasco is the President. He remained above the fray, but he was still playing his poker hand. Mysteriously, just at the right time today, Dubai pulled out. I wonder how that happened.

Now, the Dims and some stupid Republicans are the losers and will be strongly castigated when the ramifications start coming out.

The American public is also a loser because of loss of air bases, naval bases, etc. But, IMO, they will be losers only temporarily. The deal will go through later on after all kinds of machinations as Congress tries to back off. Plus, a re-shuffle of the names of the ownership of the UAE will take place........and again, the deal will go through.

I'm loving this. Pres. Bush will come out of this smelling like the yellow rose of Texas.

What loss of air bases? Where has Dubai even hinted at such a thing happening? Geez. Is our military THAT dependent on a SINGLE air base? I have a hard time believing this.
