This UAE Situation Is REALLY Cracking Me Up

[matcom]

on about a HUNDRED different levels. just had it out with Dadcom over the REASONS he/we/I should be pissed.

folks, before you fire off angry emails to your editors, READ some things about the UAE and the US

here are some Google searches to start you off:

"UAE HALLIBURTON"
"BUSH UAE"
"CHENEY UAE"
"FORBES UAE"
"Wall Street Journal UAE"

i'll not give my .02 in this thread. i have in others. yes i'm pissed about the deal but for MUCH different reasons than what the media is 'outraged' about.

Dadcom: "It CAN'T be all about politics! It CAN'T be all about money!" :rofl:

sometimes it's like talking to a 5 year old
