3. That's a confusing poll
because I think some people might assume that "scrap it" means scrap the entire deal altogether.

4. If we there were such a thing as an honest investigation in this country,
I would LOVE to find out Bush's ties to the UAE, the ONLY country in the world to accept Afghan opium which is then laundered into cash for terrorist financing.

7. "All of the above"
I think spending 45 days "reviewing it" only to "scrap it" would do wonders to expose the Wafia.

9. I'm so happy we got permission from a foreign country
Edited on Mon Feb-27-06 10:12 AM by electropop
to protect ourselves. It's important to always get permission before protecting our own damn borders.

Good thing we don't have Kerry in the White House, because Bush promised to never hand over our security to a foreign country.

:sarcasm:

edit: voted in poll, now 27/73

12. I'd say review it then scrap it.
But since in my opinion the review is meant mainly for Bushco to get his troops in line, and for the pro deal propeganda blitz about how great the United Arab Emirates is, I voted scrap it.
