That's all I've heard out of this posing chimp since 9/11. Somebody please explain to me why Bu$h is pushing so hard for the ports deal.I don't understand much these days but this little coward's support of this deal has me thrown. Is it the 6.8 billion? This stinks of the ultimate hypocrisy.

1. You could say it's another LIHOP in the wings...

Nero's poll numbers always climb after something catastrophic.

2. He's a greedy littl SOB.

This will benefit him and his family somehow, believe me. It's all about the money.

3. It's definitely (a) family benefit and (b) setting up LIHOP

That's why they wanted the ports deal done in secrecy -- so we'd all be scared and compliant again after another incident. Now that we know in advance, this isn't as likely (so maybe there's less upside in LIHOP ... which would be a good thing).

4. The British firm got the money on the buyout.
