CBS News | Bush, Congress Tangle Over Port Deal | February 23, 2006 15:25:05:

Mr. Bush, talking to reporters at the conclusion of a Cabinet meeting earlier Thursday, said that 'people don't need to worry about security.'

Mr. Bush said he was struck by the fact that people were not concerned about port security when a British company was running the port operation, but they felt differently about an Arab company at the helm.

Yes, but the British haven't been a threat to our national security since 1776. And unlike Saddam Hussein and Iraq, the UAE actually DID have connections with the suicide hijackers of 9/11. I have nothing against Arab people in general, but I have a lot of misgivings when it comes to the country named UAE.
