It was, at the price being paid, a chump change deal (in that particular industry). I fear that folks today have no concept of what a billion dollars buys ~ 'tain't all that much when it comes to buying cranes built out on a mud flat next to a ditch full of water.

no offense taken..and glad to see you address this momser...he/ she has been making this charge about anyone opposed to the deal. We got your back, big guy. Thanks for spending time with us...it's our honor.
And now back to kicking Schmuckie in the caboose.
BTW, I hope that you got to read Jimmy Carter's article in the Pakistan Daily Times. I was so outraged when I read this, I couldn't see straight. Hope to hear your take on this tomorrow.
Again, many thanks...

I can only troll from work (not allowed to even log in!) and I love to read the Mark Levin daily thread. That one, together with the DUmmie Funnies, the Daily Toons and FR's Finest, are daily must-reads for me.
And of course, I love posting my Zot graphics! Terry Tate is my latest fav.

Interesting thread, isn't it? All of FR's leading lights are here.
I think we should send Mr. Levin a wedding invitation.

The more Pub's distance themselves from the president who helped them obtain a majority in Congress, the more likely Democrats will once again control Congress and commence forward with impeachment proceedings.

"I'm glad to hear that you both think 70% of the American populace are stupid idiots."
Ummm, Flaglady, earlier today you were demonstrating your deep insight into the issue with the following quote..."Try having a bible in Saudi Arabia and other Arab countries and see how far it gets you. Or try to have a religious service. Foreign women, try driving a car by yourself. See how far inside a mosque you'd get." You can have a Bible in Saudi Arabia and other Arab countries (I'm not sure what relevance Saudi Arabia has to the UAE port deal). I always have mine when I go there. There are several Christian Churches in the UAE. Women are only prohibited from driving in Saudi Arabia (again, I'm not sure why this is relevant to the UAE port deal), and as a Christian, I have toured several mosques in the Middle East. Does the fact that your perceptions of reality of life in the Middle East not actually match reality in the Middle East make you a "stupid idiot"? Nope. But it helps explain how people like you were duped into believing the crap propagated by our lying media about the DPW deal.

>>>>>Nope, some of the American people entered a state of wild hysteria and swallowed LIES, as whole cloth. What I saw around FR for three weeks was ever growing resentment towards Freepers who opposed this deal. 90% of the ad hominem responses came form the pro-DPW/UAE side. And Bush`s intitial defiant public statement, where he threatened a veto, fueled that resentment.
>>>>And NONE of this has anything whatsoever to do with American "sovereignty".
This had everything to do with American sovereignty. The American people don't want foreigners running US operations. Americans want freedom from external control.
