While Bush is still saying he'll VETO any attempt to stop Dubai Ports World from being contracted to operate some of the U.S. ports, it's nice to read that some Republicans are starting to wake up and smell the coffee.

Long overdue. :lol:

Their wake up call has been fun to watch.

It's over. There's no way Bush will veto a bill for emergency funding for troops and Katrina victims.

I would. In a heartbeat.

But then, I'm not the president.

Well, additionally, DP has pulled out of the deal. So Bush has no reason at all to do it...unless he's totally lost his mind.

That is a distinct possibility.
