Is anyone else enjoying this??
I can't bring myself to be too outraged about this Dubai Ports deal, for a variety of different reasons (the main one being that I still fear the assholes in our own government more than I fear any foreign terrorist) but I'm finding the backlash over this really fun to watch. Just thinking about how much confusion and bewilderment the Bushbots are feeling right now is enough to make me absolutely giddy.

1. You bet!

Average Joe Republican has been manipulated into fearing Arabs and terrorists for political gain, but now, Average Joe Republican doesn't understand this "business" deal.

I love how this ignorance, which has worked for the administration since 911, is now biting them in the butt.

5. I did giggle when I saw Tom Ridge outraged over the ports deal
Other than that, I find it appalling.

7. *rotfl* ~ talk about getting caught in your own lies! Having spent the
past two or three years trying to convince freeper types that Muslims in general were not the enemy, that the Bush administration was lying throught their teeth just to terrorize them into agreeing to war and loss of rights etc., I'm laughing my head off now ~ :rofl:

If nothing else, it proves that all of them, Bush, Condi, Rumsfeld et al, either totally lied to them, or they don't care about the security of this country ~ either way, they lose!

12. And the best part is how stubborn Bushco will be about this.
It's not like, "Whoops, ya know, we made a mistake. Sorry." ... It's: "Fuck you all! We can do what we want! Bwa ha ha ha ha!"
