"The death of reason is never a praiseworthy thing......"

I dont know how you became so confused but you did. Reason prevailed in this case and is certainly praise worthy.

While you might like having a bunch of muslims frollicking around our strategic ports, most of us with reason figure this not brilliant idea at this time. Why you ask? Well as a lil reminder to the so challenged, we are currently at war with some muslims. We're spending billions fighting some muslims. Grandma is getting her anal cavity explored at the airport because we are at war with some muslims.
Members of our armed forces are being killed almost daily because we are fighting a war against some muslims.

Methinks it is you that needs correcting.

Members of our armed forces are being killed almost daily because we are fighting a war against some muslims.

Reality check:

Members of our armed forces are fighting side by side with Muslim allies against radical Islam.

I'm not a bit confused. Every fact pointed to the rightness of this deal. Only emotions pointed away from it.

I prefer to have our Congress make its decisions based on reason, and not on hysteria, or fear of not being reelected.

All the things you stated in making your case are based on your feelings about Muslims, and your confusion in thinking that 'they are all alike.' But thanks for making my point.

Thank you. If you or I go thru a major transportation hub called an airport we are treated as potential criminals, but If a state owned business from terrorist central buys a whole set of transportation hubs its no problem. Well it is probably safe to say that if David "senile" Broder and GWB agree then we are not safe.
