Bush Threatens to Veto Any Bill to Stop Port Takeover |
The confrontation between Mr. Bush and his own supporters escalated
rapidly after the Senate Republican leader, Bill Frist, and the House
speaker, J. Dennis Hastert, joined Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg, Gov.
George E. Pataki and a host of other Republicans in insisting that the
transaction must be extensively reviewed, if not killed.
That put them on essentially the same side of the issue as a chorus of
Democrats, who have seized on the issue to argue that Mr. Bush was
ignoring a potential security threat.

Bush Threatens to Veto Any Bill to Stop Port Takeover
By DAVID E. SANGER
and ERIC LIPTON
WASHINGTON --
President Bush said this afternoon that he would veto any legislation
seeking to block the administration's decision to allow a state-owned
company from Dubai to assume control of port terminals in New York and
other cities.
Mr. Bush's rare veto threat came as Republican leaders and many of
their Democratic counterparts called up today for the port takeover to
be put on hold.
They demanded that the Bush administration conduct a further
investigation of the Dubai company's acquisition of the British
operator of the six American ports.
"After careful review by our government, I believe the transaction
ought to go forward," Mr. Bush told reporters who were traveling with
him on Air Force One to Washington, according to news agencies.

Bush does business with terrorists -- and then the baby killing
butcher threatens to even more treason against America.

Another thing that blows in the face of this administration, you hope.
This will pass and the deal will go throw. Let's blow our allies and
tell them to go pound sand and see where that gets us. This is political
grandstand by both parties for November.

Go "throw"? WTF? You mean "go through"? Yo! Mr. "Trade-marked mastubatory
technique", Congress has more then enough votes to shove King Georgie iv's
veto right back down King Georgie's throat. When Frist and Boxer is singing
from the same page you can expect a veto with a fork in it.
Let's blow our allies and
tell them to go pound sand and see where that gets us.
Is that another "prized" Mr. "Trade-marked mastubatory technique" argument?
This is political
grandstand by both parties for November.
Oooooo. That's real "compelling".

He did not go behind anyones back. This has been going on since
November. They all knew that this was taking place. This is a private
deal and the president does not get involved in those proceedings,
unless he has to. You're like Harry, hoping that it will come to that.
Pinch yourself, you are not dreaming.

I'd be very surprised if there were not sufficient votes to over-ride his
veto.
