President Bush Learns New Word!

The Dubai Ports World story is hot right now, but everything I’ve read so far focuses on the issue of the security risk of transferring post authority to the state-run UAE company.

I find it far more provocative that of all the legislation that has showed up on his desk in 5 years, Bush has never uttered the word “veto” until now, on a matter that does not benefit the United States (and may even endanger us) but instead benefits his associates in the Middle East.

Oh, I thought you meant "Great British." But I guess that would mean we've all learned a new word, on a very special episode of "That's My Bush."

Actually, I think "Arab World Explodes over Shrine Bombing and Other Sundry Issues" is a bigger story today than PortGate, but then again, it's all about us.

As an aside, WestEnder, could you send me an email via my blog? Need to get in touch with you...

Sounds like W may have fewer clues than we think and fell Dubai is pronounced Dubya and named after him.
