Whoop! There It Is!!! Joementum's Got Chimpy's Back On the Port Deal!!!!!

[Beetwasher]

"One of the few legislators to come close to defending the transaction was Senator Joseph I. Lieberman, Democrat of Connecticut, who is considered a security hawk among Democrats.

He told ABC News that he was "not yet" prepared to try to block the sale. He noted that many port terminals in the United States are foreign-owned."

1. Odd that he doesn't seem to mind that the UAE doesn't recognize Israel

Seems like it IS all about the money, afterall. :shrug:

[Beetwasher]

4. Yeah, Amazing

That's ol' Joe, sucking up to Chimpy no matter how hypocritical his stance is. Really quite an amazing piece of work. I'm pretty convinced at this point Joe is being blackmailed quite effectively.

[Avalux]

5. Yep - my thought exactly.

Also confirms this deal has a lot to do with bombing Iran - we will need Dubai's port to do it.

2. Angling for Sec. Def. in Bush's 3rd term perhaps?

[dchill]

17. Nope... VP.

[Marr]

3. Just like at the State of the Union, Joe is the first to cheer.

He's even ahead of the actual Republicans.

7. The Only Explanations are Blackmail or Mental Illness

9. Blackmail. The role of blackmail in politics is HUGE.

I dont think you are allowed to rise to a leadership position until they have the goods on you. And if you somehow slip past they take care of you with a small plane crash.

He would probably be bleeped on cspan:)

[WillyT]

21. Somebody From The Press, On Camera, Needs To Ask Jobo...
