Dubai Ports has just announced they will divest themselves of all American investments.

I do so hope the people who were nearsighted about this deal and hysterical before they knew the facts are happy as they watch their investments tank while other countries decide they don't want to invest here anymore.

NOW he wants to examine the proposal...he didn't wait to examine the FIRST contract, did he?

He's just been thrown way off stride. I love this stuff.

I know....and earlier Lautenberg had to answer Coburn...and couldn't do that either...


They STILL are acting like there has been no deal...this has to be killing them.

Reid is saying that "incompetence" is still ruining this country...I would say the incompetence is in the two houses of Congress!!

Ried is up taking credit for lobbying reform. He calls it an honest leadership amendment. Says they can do two things at one time, Dubai and stopping a foreign government with ties to terrorism getting control of our ports. The Admin is dangerous and incompetent. Hahahah, he's going to give us tough and smart national security policies. "Do we want a country, not a company, running our ports?" He has not noticed the absence of the rug beneath him.

I think Rush goofed on his announcement that Dubai Ports will divest itself of American investments.

I missed it. Probably something that was tangentially related to his position that UAE should not be permitted to operate a business in the US.

Wonder if they'll kick Emirates Air Freight out of JFK airport?

I think this one time...that even Rush won't mind admitting he goofed, if it works out..

Especially seeing all of the chicken littles from both sides of the aisle...worm their way out of this corner.

What Rush read was just the first part -- he said they were divesting of US investments and interests and really what they are divesting is just their management interest in the ports deal.
