I actually agree with W.
I agree with his position on this port issue and UAE. It is out and out
racism and xenophobia that is fueling this so called outrage on both
sides of the aisle.

Oddly it is W who created the climate that is now coming back to bite
him. The Republicans are the fear and terror party. And they have given
that fear and terror a face. An Arab face. Muslim Arab to be precise.
Not white Muslim like the cats fighting in parts of the former Soviet
Union.

We have been taught to fear every Arab male we see. The great
Republican Marketing machine has made us forget about the militia men
(Atlanta Olympics) or the domestic terrorists (OK City) or the Koreans
or potentially South Americans (Hugo) who hate the US and in some cases
have attacked its citizens.

No it's all about the towel heads and sand n*ggers and every nasty slur
we all may have used over the years. They are the ones to fear. And now
we are gonna turn over control of our ports to them?
Now all these fake leaders (again on both sides) want to wave the flag.
Shut up.

The majority of US ports are managed by foreign powers and guarded by Americans.

The ports in question were run by a British company before this
transaction. Where was the outrage about a foreign power in our midst
then?

Quite simply if the country involved was not the United Arab Emirates
there would be no discussion.

This outrage is an attempt to legislate racism. And being a African
American I understand what happens when the gentry in the Senate
legislate against ethnic groups and nationalities.

History will show that this is an embarassing time for this country.

most likely for old man John McCain.
