Today's Red-Flag Word: "Transactions"
There is something funny going on; remember when Alberto "Torture is Okay" Gonzalez kept referencing an unspecified "program" during his NSA hearing? Many people quickly caught on that he was using weasel words, specifically designed to sound like one thing, but legally mean something else. Or anything else, just so long as it's vague. Now I'm wondering if the same thing isn't going on with this port deal. Bush did it a lot when he spoke earlier, and now Scotty is doing it...repeatedly using the word "transaction" when referring to the DPW deal. I'm not sure what the angle is, but since it involves BushCo, you can bet there is something the word "transaction" is meant to be obscuring.
