Did Dubai Ports get by Cheney and Rove because of quailgate?

[HereSince1628]

Surely Bush administration would have known at least a week ahead of the announcement. W

Could this a memo have slipped by the Puppeteer and the Architect because they were dealing wounds with the press?

1. No, too many Bush cronies involved in the deal. They knew.

Bush helped "grease the wheels" for it to happen. I don't believe for one second that he didn't know.

3. Maybe, but I can't believe that Rove is THAT deep inside the bubble

He must know where the nation's sentiments, and the fears Karl fed for five years, reside.

They didn't even know where their own congressional leadership was on the issue.

So unlike Rove.

2. Portgate bumped Quailqate off the radar

Nice save for a drunk vp shooter

4. But the last chance to save themselves from portgate was during quailgate

seems like something had Bush's team to busy to read the tea leaves.

5. Next week there'll probably be a new Gate to top Portgate and Quailgate

These people are all

:P

7. No doubt, this is the worst administration in US History.

6. I bet Cheney was in on this. It's too big for the 'energy guy' not to know

IMHO

8. I would think so, but if Cheney that out of touch with his own party

what took him there?

Did he think this was a secret deal?
