What did you expect to find at the Boston Herald? Jenjiss Conn? ; )

John Zogby can kiss my ass.

When Arab-Americans stop murdering infidels and blowing crap up we'll stop discriminating against them.

Move over rainbow flaggers, the Christians are saying it too...

Why the Dubai deal collapsed

Though DPW has said it is relinquishing control of the US ports to a "United States entity," there will be lingering repercussions. In international relations, the backlash makes Americans look xenophobic and nativist toward the globalizing economy, analysts say, though they note that in the hard-headed world of international trade, foreign firms looking to invest in the US will hardly be swayed by emotion.

It's Do not dub me shapka broham against the world. No one can stop him. ; )

"Yet, it is the same Dubai and the UAE that is now being slammed by wolf packs of powerful Arab bashers and assorted Islamophobes all piously wrapped up in the Stars and Stripes, howling Armageddon in the American media and Congress."

The article conveniently forgets to mention the slave trading of young Boys for camel jockeys and girls for prostitution and reprehensible track record on civil rights not to mention terrorist activity

"Democrats conceded the xenophobic and anti-Arab strains to their rhetoric made them uncomfortable. "

And Democrats are pretending to hold the high ground with this?

"Democrats insisted their cause was not anti-Arab but applied to any foreign operations at U.S. ports, and they pushed measures to require that U.S. companies be the only ones allowed to manage terminals."

And Republicans are just the opposite, I presume? LOL!

Christian Science bears about as much resemblance to Christianity as Madonna's interpretation of Kabbalah does to Orthodox Judaism.

Simply because you preface a phrase with the word "Christian" does not make it so; see Christian Identity.

Also, the editorial oversight of that newspaper is not dependent upon Mary Baker Eddy's deranged disciples, just as the Moonies don't decide what editorials the Washington Times is going to run everyday.

So yes, the people who wrote that editorial probably belong to the aforementioned categories.

I didn't say they were "real" Christians. Now go tell the rest of the world.

[TigersEye]

Heh heh heh. The ERs are going to be overwhelmed with footus gunshotus wounds.

Ewww, I said some more Latin. Look at me, look at me! ;^P

[Do not dub me shapka broham]

Are you for real?

Seriously?

I knew there were a lot of mental people floating around in the ether of the IntraWebz, still...

[TigersEye]

I'm just fresh out of mice so I thought I'd play with you. ; )

Arab-Americans are murdering infidels and blowing up crap?

[TigersEye]

Well here's somebody who thinks it's a good thing. Love the title...

Yep. He just blew his cover.

Check out #2182. Too much. Push 'em hard enough and the veil comes off.

Well said, and exactly right.

But our precious Islamo-fascist appeasers are just chock-a-full of all sorts of "wisdom" about things they know nothing about, as you've seen. And they continue to pretend to be "conservatives" committed to the struggle against the rancid ideology that brought us the horrors of 9/11 (and much else besides, both before and after)--except when they aren't.

Which is curiously often, as you've witnessed in this very thread...

I was almost convinced that it if it wasn't a good thing to sell the ports, it at least wouldn't be bad.

But I don't take threats very well. Screw the UAE.

If you think they are selling ports, you aren't informed enough to form an opinion.

These "threats" are how rational businesses and gevernments exert influence. France, Canada, and Japan use similar "threats" against us, just as we do against them. People need to get informed about this and stop the hyperbole.

My work is done here. I'll leave you to commiserate with your "real American" buddy.
