What DIDN'T the president know and when DIDN't he know it

History will tell use that the Republicans stole the 2000 and 2004 elections.

A partner? I knew I was forgetting something, but too senile to remember what it was!
Good articles on Dubai, JPW---I hadn't seen a lot of this information before. However, it makes me uncomfortable when so many people express their outrage/fear over Arabs running our ports. It strikes me as racist. I am more comfortable with worry over these particular Arabs (as opposed to Arabs in general) or with worry over any foreigners running what seemingly should be a strictly domestic effort.
That's the point. It should be a domestic effort. I don't care if it was Canada who was offered the deal.
