The Bush bog

It looks as though Bush is digging in his heals on the Dubai Ports contract, even in the face angry objections from most Republican members of the House and Senate and even from Tom Kean.

WASHINGTON - The Bush administration said Friday it won't reconsider its approval for a United Arab Emirates company to take over significant operations at six U.S. ports. The former head of the Sept. 11 commission said the deal "never should have happened."

Someone should probably tell him that when you're standing in quick sand you shouldn't dig in your heels, but I'm keeping my lips sealed... sealed but smiling.
