So give UAE a bl*wjob so we can drill in ANWR? Wow. I'm glad we're not into pimping out our national security for some line item attachments.

Bottom up is a threat too.
The port deal is dead because Bush REFUSES to do anything about our borders. That is the long and short of it, this is (grass roots) payback for Bush open borders policy, he is not longer trusted and any deal he supports is suspect. And that my freeper friend is the story behind the story.

What an ignorant post. I think you have the Emirates confused with the Saudis. Saudi Arabia is the "home" of Wahabiism. The Emirates are relatively secular compared to other Arab countries. Are you comparing a country that allows us to dock our Navy ships in its ports nad helps us in the war on terror to Nazis?

approving a deal to sell ownership of our port security to the UAE Twist the truth much?
To: Rutles4Ever
"I'm curious. Would you trust UAE with running airport security checkpoints? Why or why not? Answer carefully, or you might be called a "xenophobe"."
I don't trust any foreign country to run our security at airports, but since nobody has proposed that any do, I don't see where that fits in this debate over ports?

So what did Rush say? So far all I've seen on this thread is remarks that he "gave away the plan" with no summary of what he said.That's because some people like to feel important. Do you have your secret decoder ring handy? Don't forget the secret handshake.

You never mix personal and business matters. No, YOU don't. At this level, EVERYONE does. Allies do their best business with other allies.

So you support the Emir's blackmail campaign?No, I don't; but I didn't support the idiocy that provoked it.
Do we deserve his threats because of Congress' actions yesterday and today?
Yes. You do not go around calling someone the sorts of things the UAE gets called, and expect them to simply say "thank you, sir, may I have another?"

I don't care what side anyone sits on - any country that threatens our well-being because of the outcome of our democratic process is not and WAS not our ally in fact.

Islamicists? You might be interested in knowing that there are 24 Christian churches operating on land donated to them by the ruling families. Additionally, there are also Christian schools and cemeteries. Sound like your typical "furious Islmamists"?
