Is it okay, would it be okay now for Dubai to run the ports? When Dubai World wanted to do the Dubai Ports deal, I was a big supporter. These people know what they\u2019re doing running ports.

You <img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/01125109.Par.89380.ImageFile_5791449ded96b.jpg\" width=\"280\" height=\"263\" class=\"alignright\"\/>remember every Democrat and Republican were in a race to the nearest camera and microphone to be the first to say, &#8216;I oppose the Dubai Ports deal.\u2019 Vince Flynn was having a meeting with the president in the Oval Office. Vince told me that the president said, &#8216;I guess Limbaugh\u2019s beating me up on this.\u2019 And Vince said, &#8216;No, he\u2019s with you on this. Limbaugh\u2019s a supporter of the Dubai Ports deal.\u2019 But I was in the minority. <\/p>\n<p>A lot of people thought I\u2019d lost my mind. &#8216;Gosh, I mean you\u2019re going to put terrorists in charge of the ports.\u2019 No, no, no, no, no. They got ports all over the world. So I guess now it\u2019s okay if Dubai wants to buy the ports, it\u2019s okay now, right? (interruption) Well, they might be in debt a little, Snerdley, but it\u2019s a philosophical point here, hypothetical point. Now that it\u2019s okay to put a Hamasque at Ground Zero, it would be perfectly fine for Dubai Ports to come in here and run the ports, right? I\u2019m just asking. It seems a reasonable question to me. Governor Christie, a warning. You don\u2019t want to be praised by these people.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT <\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Chuck Schumer and Hillary: loudest voices against it. (interruption) Yeah. It figures I would choose apple because I\u2019m a big Mac guy. Apple flavored. They were representing the victims of 9\/11, Dubai Ports Deal. (interruption) Well, you know, that\u2019s not a bad idea. What would happen if a member of Hamas wanted to buy part of an NFL team? What if this imam, in an effort to further reach out and relate to Americans, wanted to buy part of the New Orleans Saints or the New England Patriots? No problem! That would not be a problem. Yeah, Miami Dolphins would not be a problem. It would be bigotry to oppose that. Can\u2019t oppose it. No, no. It\u2019d be perfectly fine. Wouldn\u2019t be any problem. Pelosi owns part of a football team (well, her husband does). It\u2019s not the NFL. It\u2019s the UFL, United Football League.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: Ladies and gentlemen, I have a serious question.
