Sounds like a great idea!

Put Muslims in charge of our defense.

That'll work!

Wonder what kind of stuff Dubya has been smoking.

Insanity. Arabs in charge of our defense. Arabs who have sworn to use nuclear weapons on us. What is wrong with Bush?

The officials, who were granted anonymity so they could speak freely about something the president had not yet announced, said that the final details had not yet been set and that Mr. Bush might put conditions on the transaction to keep military technology in the United States.

Two possibilities... An intentional leak of a policy direction to test the water, or a fabricated leak that the Dems will spin into being the former when it doesn't materialize.

And if true, I wonder what part Bill Clinton is playing in this...

Correction... Looks like it happened already. :-)

Now time to buckle down and find out everything about it before knee jerking.

I've been wonderin' the same thing. I know he doesn't drink, maybe someone is spiking his bottled water. ;) Just wanna go up, shake his shoulders, and ask the President: "what, in the name of the God you worship, are you thinking? What's with immigration and Dubai, are you nuts?"

LOL Didn't take long... The deal probably is not as bad as it sounds, right?
