“Things are never so bad they can’t be made worse”
-Humphrey Bogart-
What do the State of Kuwait, the Bandar bin Sultan family, the Sultanate of Oman, King Hassan II of Morocco, the amir of Qatar, Enron Corp. founder Kenneth Lay, the former Korean prime minister, the government of China, Sheik Zayed Bin Sultan al Nahyan and the people of the United Arab Emirates have in common? They all gave a lot of money to the Bush Library Foundation. The UAE alone gave an unspecified amount exceeding a million dollars.
Of all the Port Operations companies in all the world we had to choose Dubai Ports World. Of course and without a doubt, it is only because in all the world, they are the best choice for America.
According to Channel 2 News in Houston, TX, Roman Popaduik, chairman of the Bush Library Foundation that collects donations, said he could not discuss details of the gifts and of course our administration is not going to discuss anything, thank you very much, sit down and shut up.
To me, discussions of security are secondary to discussions of impropriety; of the innumerable quid pro quo relationships with monied interests that make up the mosaic of the Bush Presidency.
It’s not so much a question of whether they can do the job, but of why, of all the companies in all the world, do we have to have this country managing the bulk of our international trade?
I think we can figure it out.
