Just to be clear, I'm not unilaterally opposed to the operation of certain US ports by the UAE just because Arabs are part of the UAE. These days, I suspect I'd be much happier to allow moderate Muslims to operate something than any of our nutso fascist Christian idealogues.
In fact, I wasn't opposed to the whole ports thing at all until President (man, it still hurts to type his name six-plus years later) Bush told us we WERE going to have UAE control of U.S. ports NO MATTER WHAT.
His reticence to hear any dissenting opinions on this - no surprise from this administration - bothers the hell out of me. Which makes me wonder who the fuck is behind all this.
