BANKING ON HYSTERIA FATIGUE?:
Bush Set to Approve Takeover of 9 Military Plants by Dubai (JIM RUTENBERG and DAVID E. SANGER, 4/28/06, NY Times)
President Bush is expected on Friday to announce his approval of a deal under which a Dubai-owned company would take control of nine plants in the United States that manufacture parts for American military vehicles and aircraft, say two administration officials familiar with the terms of the deal.The officials, who were granted anonymity so they could speak freely about something the president had not yet announced, said that the final details had not yet been set and that Mr. Bush might put conditions on the transaction to keep military technology in the United States. [...]
[R]epresentative Peter T. King, Republican of New York, the chairman of the House Committee on Homeland Security and one of the foremost critics of the ports deal, said on Thursday that he would not necessarily have a problem this time around, in large part because the White House had given the deal a thorough review.
The only difference is that Mr. King realizes he made an ass of himself last time. Posted by Orrin Judd at April 28, 2006 11:48 AM
I have come to the conclusion that the Left Wing is right about Bush. He is an idiot.

Posted by: Robert Mitchell Jr. at April 28, 2006 1:07 PMRobert,
NC3 will soon talk about Bush and Vicente Fox conspiring to bring about Aztlan/reconquista/revanchism/Republica del Norte via the advancing Mexican horde. It's not very pretty, and shows us a lot about NC3.
Posted by: Brad S at April 28, 2006 2:08 PMI've figured out that "NC3" is some kind of code for KKK, but can't figure out the precise cryptogram, anybody help?
Posted by: oj at April 28, 2006 2:23 PMNC3=N-C*3=KKK
'N' is the 14th letter, 'C' is the 3rd letter, so 14-3 gives us 11, and the 11th letter is 'K', and there are 3 of them. QED.

Bingo!

That's astonishing. I stand in hushed awe at your abilities.

How'd you figure out the cryptogram part without getting the mechanism?

His comments marked him as a Klansman. In particular, the anti-Catholic ones I've had to delete.
Posted by: oj at April 28, 2006 4:52 PMSo what's the significance of "NC"? "Noxious Creep"? "Nothing Coherent"? "Northern Coward"? "No Coloreds/Catholics"? Or something worse?
Isn't there some sort of other code ("86"? "88"?) which these "Invisible Empire" types use to attempt to hide references the former and rarely lamented Reichsfuhrer? What exactly is the appeal of just games, anyhow?

Posted by: oj at April 28, 2006 5:25 PMI don't get it. Since when does the White House and/or congress vet private enterprise?
Mr. Erp, since the New Deal.....
