The UAE are our friends now. A few years ago, I understand that they were not our friends. Maybe they will and maybe they won't stay our friends. They are after all, muslims. How friendly are they going to be if we have to intervene in Iran? I wonder how muslims will stick together in a struggle to the death with the infidels?

As far as Schumer and other dems go..they have finally figured out that that we really do have a lethal enemy and what is important to most Americans is that they are not going to get blown up by a car bomber while they shop at the local mall. This dustup over the ports is a once in a lifetime gift from the R's to the D's. It has given Schumer et al a way to save their sorry asses both physically and politically.....

An Old friend of mine told me that the UAR was the only country in the Middle East that he'd return to. To use his terminology, they nearly acted like "white people."

Yes! It's like a ripe plum thrown in the Dem's lap. They can pander to their underinformed consituents in a big way. Trouble is, so is the GOP. I just hope and pray that the public sees through the fog or this cheap political trick could turn into a real disaster for this country.
