RIP, DWP Thanks to Chuck Schumer, Duncan Hunter, and a host of other Congressmen, Dubai Ports World says it will turn its U.S. operations over to some phantom American entity. So when the UAE tells us they dont feel like helping out in the War on Terror, well thank Congress. Tony has more
From the Senate U.S. Senator Sam Brownback will be speaking at the Southern Republican Leadership Conference this weekend. Before he does, hell talk to Tony about a host of issues - - including the killed ports deal and the South Dakota abortion legislation.

"Woof" is used in broadcasting to say "stop," "that's enough" or to mark a specific point in time -- which is what is done in this case. "Tony's show starts in 3 minutes: WOOF!" Means in 3 minutes from-- NOW!
Someone did comment on primaries. I agree with you too, in supporting conservatives in primary elections. We are doing that here for the most part.
Off topic a bit, but as states loosen candidate primary requirements, candidates are paying less attention to the party. If a candidate does not need local party support to win, they have little incentive to being conservative. This has been a major situation/battle here in Colorado. RINO's can win a primary without grassroot, activist support. That leads to worse problems in the future. Example? NY having both a Conservative and Republican party.
The teachers' union in my state provides the legal counsel for the teachers. I'm sure it is the same there.
;)
Yep, as always, follow the $$$
What's interesting is that it only shows a total from
Labor of $183,450 (PAC: $178,750 Ind; $4,700), but I know I've read that he rec'd a lot from Longshormen and Teamsters. Wonder if it's in the $1.1M No Disclosure or where it is?

Was it "them" and not me?
IMHO, most of the blowback is going to happen inside the good ol' USA and the targets are the gutless DTCJ congresscreatures and their pimps in the MSM.
I'm not about to vote for any dim for any public office because of DPW or any other issue, but me and a couple of congressional candidates are going to have a real pungent heart-to-heart talk in the very near future.
Yep
C'mon Chattie, that's not fair...the rhetoric has really ratcheted up over the past couple of days what with Gen Abizaid playing the race card.
Perhaps I should play the race card...
The UAE does not recognize Israel, and actively supports both organizations and governments (Iran) that wish to "wipe the Zionist Entity off the map". These same organizations and countries (Saudi Arabia), have official postions in which they deny that the Holocaust actually occurred.
Yet those that oppose this deal are called racists while the REAL RACISTS are defended. Shame on us for, ONCE AGAIN, turning on, and eating our own.
Rush has a great saying, "words mean things". And he's right. When we call someone a racist who has a history of fighting racism, we diminish ourselves.
Like I said, Chuck doesn't have a problem with the Saudi shipping company in the NY/NJ ports.
Understood. I'm convinced it will go farther and deeper than what we are seeing now.
All the more reason for TERM LIMITS!
You want to know what is worse?
Yesterday in the Senate, one of the reasons given for needing Congressional oversight on this deal...which was legally done under the CFIUS law, in secret, that congress passed in 1988, was that "times have changed, we had 9/11"!!
Okay, now go back a few weeks...and Congress was all up in arms that President Bush had the NSA progam using warrantless wiretapps on foreign calls...and sometimes did not follow FISA rules (supposedly)...
When President Bush said that FISA was written in 1978, and times have changed, we had 9/11...Congress said, "Nope, not good enough"...
So...see, Congress keeps changing the rules for President Bush...but makes up their own rules as they go along, for themselves.
"Rush has a great saying, "words mean things". And he's right. When we call someone a racist who has a history of fighting racism, we diminish ourselves."
I'm with you, sof.
I'm a racist, too and I think my hair's on fire.
Wait, I may be available. Let me check with Mrs. FOX. I never know from day to day whether my "lease" will be extended.
Hey Sofa! The racism card is a pretty lame argument...that's the best they got? You'd think how some are taking it personally that maybe they had something to make off the deal.
What was more interesting was the smackdown given the lawyer by the high school student LOL.
Agreed. AliVeritas does not hand compliments out lightly. I'm still blushing....
I still donate to the national party, just not as much. I want to keep my voice in front of them but I want to make sure my minor contribution is going to candidates I support. I also make it a point of making sure the candidate knows from whom and why he or she is getting the donation.
I support Any Republican who wins their primary becasue that's what we do as a party. But, there is nothing that says I have to contribute to a candidate I disagree with on many issues.
