Democrats Win, Americans Lose

The Dubai ports deal is dead. The Democrats, with the help of some weak-kneed Republicans, managed to force the Dubai company to back out. I could chalk this up to racism. I could say the Democrats were profiling Arabs. But to do that, I'd have to assume that Democrats care a whit about national security. They don't. But by killing this deal, the pro-terrorist Democrats managed to undermine the war on terror, discredit the president (their real goals) and appear to care about national security. It was a perfect trifecta. The Dubai company will now transfer the port operations to "an American entity." Who would that be? I think the repercussions of this treachery will be felt for a long time. Next, the Dems will have to outlaw Muslims from running convenience stores. Who knows what they're slipping into our Slushies?

Wasn't it, in the end, Republicans who killed this deal?; 5:06 PM
Lone Ranger said...: Once it became clear that Democrats had the votes to block the deal and override a veto, Republicans (not the weak-kneed ones) blocked the deal to take it away from the Democrats as an issue. But Republicans should have presented a unified front from the beginning. What possible reason could there be for siding with the Democrats on ANY issue?? They weren't concerned about national security when the Chinese took over port operations on the left coast -- and on both ends of the Panama Canal. The point is, what happens now? Dubai could block our warships from using their port. After all, if they can't be trusted to keep the books on our port operations, how can they be trusted to service our Navy? They could switch to Airbus for the purchase of their airliners instead of Boeing's new plane. There are any number of ways they could punish us if they decide to be vindictive. I could understand if this were paranoia on the part of the Democrats. But it wasn't. Clearly, if the Bush administration had taken 45 days to brief Congress, it wouldn't have made a bit of difference. This was just a cynical effort to make political hay during an election year and I think it has damaged this country. This will also provide valuable propaganda to the jihadists. Watch. The word will now go out on Al-Jazeera and in the "Arab streets" that the reason this deal was quashed is that Americans hate Muslims, yada, yada, yada.

I need to invest money in a company that makes flammable American flags.; 8:39 PM

25 Immutable Truths About Liberals

Over the years I've been writing this blog, I've been throwing out little self-evident truths that seem to have no exceptions that prove the rule. I've made a list of some of them and will add to it as I remember them or make up more. Most of this list I've come up with myself. A few I've borrowed from others.

1. Always expect the worst from a liberal and you will never be surprised.

2. Never try to reason with a liberal. They disregard any evidence that conflicts with their beliefs.

3. You can always tell what liberals are up to by what they accuse conservatives of doing.

4. Liberals don't debate, they argue.

5. The only standards liberals have are double standards.

6. Liberals feel, conservatives think.

7. Whenever you don't understand a liberal's motives, just look for the money.

8. Liberals cannot be embarrassed. They lack the gene to blush.

9. The Liberal Golden Rule is, "Do unto others but scream bloody murder if they do unto you."

10. Liberals don't have leaders, they have demi-gods.

11. There are no honest liberals. If they were honest -- especially to themselves -- they would be conservatives.

12. A liberal's business is nobody's business, but everyone's business is a liberal's business.

13. Liberals have an inflated sense of self-worth. They are like house flies that criticize the air-worthiness of a Stealth fighter. (Sarah Palin, George W. Bush, ad infinitum are morons.)

14. Liberals lack a sixth sense that conservatives have in abundance -- common sense.

15. Liberals never stop hating.

16. There are only two types of liberals -- the deceivers and the deceived. The difficulty is telling them apart.

17. Every time liberals get on their high horse, they get bucked off.

18. Liberal programs are so wonderful that they have to be forced on people.

19. Liberals always choke on their own medicine.

20. When given a moral choice, liberals always come down on the wrong side of the fence.

21. The only way liberals can build themselves up is by tearing others down.

22. Liberals not only refuse to learn from their mistakes, they refuse to admit them.

23. Liberals have only two political positions -- blind devotion and blind hatred.

24. Liberals are incapable of attacking the message, so they always attack the messenger.

25. Liberal diversity is only skin deep.
