A Little Wine With Your Port?

"Bush Defends Port Deal" reports the VOA. "This deal would not go forward if we were concerned about the security for the United States of America," stated President Bush. So, does that mean that President Bush is not concerned about the security here? The president notes that he will quickly veto anything that will delay or disrupt this port deal with the United Arab Emirates. So, why is this deal to hand over major US ports to UAE so vital to President Bush? Things that make you go... hmmmmm.

In the Forbes article on "Senator Challenges Ports Deal Procedure" they quote President Bush saying, "The more people learn about the transaction that has been scrutinized and approved by my government," Bush said, "the more they'll be comforted that our ports will be secure." Umm... Since when did this country go from our government to your government, President Bush? Semantics, I know.

It seems that the last time something major changed hands, within a couple of months devastating events happened. Let's see here... Let me look into my crystal ball and see... Oh, my. April and May look to be active months. The beginning two weeks of each month seems to show major events happening. Oh, dear. It's clouding over now. It's turning blue. Is it Windows 2000 for crystal balls acting up again? Oh, it's turning red now. This isn't good. Is this thing even on the right year?
