This should pretty much make Lou Dobbs head explode

I guess that 45-day review is about as real as George Bush being a vigorous and probing questioner in private:


Dubai Ports World's $6.85 billion acquisition of Britain's P&O will close on Friday or Monday, despite an additional 45-day review by the U.S. government in response to security concerns, a U.S. Treasury Department official said on Thursday.


This myth of Bush being a probing questioner has been perpetuated by the media for more than five years now. The only evidence we have of this phenomena are from sycophants. Just once -- just one fucking time -- I'd like some direct evidence of this phenomena. Bush cannot even ask probing questions of Jenna ("Are you...ah...pregant?") let alone Steven Hadley.
