A Selection of FreeRepublic Posts re: Portgate.

It shows why the Republicans with a majority in congress have accomplished exactly nothing. They are so busy managing their image instead of the nation's business. If the democrats had any leadership they would be running rings around this bunch of wimps.

There is no way that Dubia Worl Port is the only company which can do this. What's so unreasonable about an American company performing this function?

Wrong! Republicans have distanced themselves from PresBush on this issue and rightfully so. On this issue Bush is deadwrong.

Republican leaders send a global message: They don't trust Bush.
Cool, I don't trust the doubletalking, backstabbing little weasel either.
Heck, he's already responsible for sinking us over $2 Trillion deeper in debt.

1. We told them

they elected an idiot. Twice.

Did they listen?

Uh-uh.

They're right about our leadership though.

2. But wait, here comes the Clinton reference!

To: quidnunc
it is positively amazing to read the belligerant rants of all the FReepers who have suddenly jumped in the bed of the "one whose name must not be mentioned". After all the Whitewater crap, there they are, in her bed doing only God knows what.

I hope they don't catch something. I hope that if they do it isn't contagious.

Basically at the end of the day the argument comes down to this by the anti port people. NO Arabs Period- Dont LIke Muslims there crazy-

I have seen people all day on these threads say "hey the more I learned the more comfortable I was with this"

The President has the gosh darn common sense to know the Forign policy disaster if he renigged on this deal because there "arab". Folks the world moved on. the arabs own alot including a bit of our national debt. We have a future engagement with Iran in our future. I really cant expect UAE to put their people in danger and all those pretty new buildings as well as their ports To IRanian missiles if we treat them like a common prositiute. LOng term and Short term because the Dems and Republicans have made this a "race" issue and "religion" issue the President will have to veto it. IN fact in some tiny way the anti arab and anti Islamic rants have forced him to do that since the whole world is watching.

4. "We have a future engagement with Iran in our future."

Certainly worth an honorable mention for the Literary Award from the Federal Bureau of Redundancy Bureau.:-)

10. anti-port people???

really? I've never met an anti-port person. :rofl:

on edit: I can't wait until they start saying 'you're either with the ports or against them'.

[reDEMption]

5. Trust

"Republican leaders send a global message: They don't trust Bush."



Actually, I think it's the U.A.E. that they don't trust. If it was Bush, they'd speak out about a lot more than simply this port-unloading contract... and they haven't.

6. I liked this one best.....

To: Clintonfatigued
Please, didn't you get the memo; you must be assimulated. The Republican party will no longer tolerate any opinion that is contrary to that of his Highness George W Bush.

Is this the Uniting Factor for BushCO?

7. I liked dubya world port.

8. Check Post 62

My new favorite FReeper Winston_Churchill0 says "Guys watch what you say, DU is eating this up" with a link to this thread.

This feels good.

[cantstandbush]

11. That's right "guys" Keep cuttingoff your faces to spite your noses. LOL

And no, I didn't mis-type.

[Kire]

16. Winston_Churchill0 is cracking me up.

[grasswire]

9. when will Robinson realize...

....or admit that he was wrong to capitulate to the Bushbots; that he has sold his conservative principles out by backing Bush? If he had any honor, any integrity he would repudiate the Bush administration now, for massive corruption and betrayal of conservative voters.

[SeattleGirl]

12. My, my, my, will wonders never cease?

Looks like some of the freepers have finally put the Koolaide down -- or Chimpy has finally done something to cut through their addled brains, and they are starting to catch on to what so many of us have known since day one.

[OffWithTheirHeads]

13. Do I detect a little

Disillusionment among the brown shirts? Do they think, perhaps, George is no longer the brightest bulb in the knife drawer? Damn, even stupid people can have an Epiphany!

14. Welcome to DU! Your Boy Sold your job and your country to the arabs.

(To the Freepers) Have a nice day.

[XOKCowboy]

15. This was a good one....

Someone should ask Bush if he would like the Arabs to take over his personal security detail - see if the Secret Service would like to turn over their weapons to the Moos - good enough for all of us, good enough for him.

What a "Moo" is I have no idea but he/she/it has good instincts.

[Dave Reynolds]

17. Here is a true WTF?

To: Sam the Sham
Corporate one worlders are actually liberals. They just like low taxes in certain areas and like good cash flow. Otherwise, they are sqeamish about real war, hate the concept of borders, and are very similar to 1960s peace sign wearing hippies. Sad we've allowed them to infiltrate the party.
