America starting to wake up

With all the criticism directed at the Bush administration from both Democrats and Republicans over handing control of our ports over to the UAE I'm starting to see a little light at the end of the tunnel. It finally seems that most americans have finally come to the conclusion that GW Bush as President is a bad thing. I especially liked this really hard hitting quote from Jack Cafferty:

"Wolf, this may be the straw that finally breaks the camel's back, this deal to sell control of six US ports to a company controlled by the United Arab Emirates. There are now actually Senators and Congressmen and Governors and Mayors telling the White House "you're not gonna do this." And it's about time. No one has said "no" to this administration on anything that matters in a very long time. Well this matters. It matters a lot. If this deal is allowed to go through, we deserve whatever we get.

A country with ties to terrorists will have a presence at six critical doorways to our country. And if anyone thinks that the terrorists, in time, won't figure out how to exploit that, then we're all done. Nothing's happened yet, mind you, but if our elected representatives don't do everything in their power to stop this thing, each of us should vow to work tirelessly to see that they are removed from public office. We're at a crossroads - which way will we choose?

You would think that after the failure to find WMDs in Iraq as well as the failure to maintain the peace there do to poor planning that a majority of americans would have realized Bush was a bad President much sooner. Add in the mishandling of hurricane Katrina and you have to wonder what the hell is wrong with those roughly 40% who think Bush is doing a good job as President. I didn't even include Bush's Illegal domestic spying or his approval of torture. Speaking of torture. Does anyone find it hypocritical that Bush is defending the UAE port deal by saying he's just trying to improve american relations with arabs? Bill Maher had an interesting comment on this. He says if Bush is so concerned with arab relations then he shouldn't be torturing them. Could this latest scandal actually be a turning point where america finally wakes up to the fact that President Bush is wrecking this country? One can only hope.
