Oh yeah, U.A.E., United Arab Emurites, I said U.A.R. What's your point about their voting record?
I wish President Bush would be more careful when he's making these surprise visits....the terrorists would stop at nothing to get to him and Laura.....
God Speed....
The United Arab Republic (UAR) was Nasser's creation (it briefly replaced "Egypt") - to my knowledge neither the Saudis or others joined it.
Bush's overtures to enemies are nice, but not particularly well done. If he brings someone who hates my guts to my door and says "Meet your new friend." I am going to rightly remind him who gave him his job - and who chooses my new friends.
Bush appears to be hung up on proving how bright he is and how stupid we are - exactly what I expect from a Yale/Harvard man. Seems he has gone back to his roots.
He screwed up and refuses to back down from his own supporters - not Democrats - which is why he more and more resembles a parking cone - he keeps the opposition out of our parking spot and little else we want done.
If you want another Democrat in the whitehouse (I don't) run another Bush for President. I've had it with that entire family of fair weather consevatives.
