I believe Warner said that Dubai Ports was removing itself from the port deal; don't they have other investments in this country besides this deal?

I dunno. I figured being "Ports World" that their expertise and interests relate to ports.

Ahem. Rush announced that Dubai Ports was divesting itself of all their investments in America. I don't think that's what Warner read, is it?

Oh. I didn't realize you had already reached the point of legal parsing. In that case, I am sure you are right - the two statments -- Limbaugh's and Bilkey's (read by Warner) -- are not identical.

It'd be interesting to read the transcripts of both to show the differences, but I think at the level of general discussion, a detailed review is premature.

Were you even listening to Rush? He came back and without using the words "I made a mistake" he admitted that he made a mistake.

He made it sound like Dubai was divesting itself of all American investments. And you do know that's not true or correct, right?

Dubai Ports is buying all of P&O holdings, worldwide. A list of what that includes in this country can be found in this link. It includes cruise lines, etc.

So my statement, to which you seemed to take issue, that Rush made a mistake in announcing the Dubai was divesting itself of all holdings in this country was indeed a goof on his part.

If you consider pointing out Rush's mistake was legal parsing, you've taken legal parsing to an entirely new level.
