The problem was UAE, not foreign companies entirely. If they want to do something smart then that's fine, but now the sensible objections to a takeover approval that was rushed through to benefit a country with ties to terrorism is turning into a contest to see who can object to "foreigners" more than the next guy. What a bunch of jerks, really.<BR/><BR/>Saxton gets special credit for stupidity, though. I want to know which foreign countries those guys who bombed the Federal Building in Oklahoma City came from, since Saxton is all full of this crap about "west vs east". Also, if he wants us to think that folks in the "east" are so much more likely to bomb stuff than folks in the "west", what with their "ideological divide" and all, maybe he can tell us which country is the only country ever to use a nuclear weapon on another country as well as telling us whether the country that dropped millions of tons of bombs on Viet Nam and Iraq was a western country or an eastern country.<BR/><BR/>Saxton is making me think he's kind of, I don't know, ignorant I guess.DBKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08182965443810437028noreply@blogger.com
