Ports deal OK with Our Dear Embattled Leader
In fact, according to the AP, he is telling people that it is a fabulous part of his glorious foreign policy or something like that.
How square can it be if they won't let Rummy in on it?
FORGOT TO MENTION: ODEL says he will "break his maiden" with a veto if Congress passes a law trying to stop this deal.
"I can understand why some in Congress have raised questions about whether or not our country will be less secure as a result of this transaction," the president said. "But they need to know that our government has looked at this issue and looked at it carefully."At which point the entire country, remembering how careful they were with Iraq, disaster relief, national security and Medicare Part D, recoilled in horror. I might cut him some slack if Rummy said the deal was kosher, but when asked about it he gave this response.
I am reluctant to make judgments based on the minimal amount of information I have because I just heard about this over the weekend.Our friends over at ThinkProgressinform us that Rummy is a member of the committee that "unanimously" approved the deal.
