The American Spectator

The Post is rightly miffed by Congress killing the Dubai Ports World deal:

But our brave new Congress has achieved more than the irrational spiking of one business deal. It has also sent a clear message to the Arab world: No matter how far you move along the path of modernization and cooperation, Americans may be unable to distinguish you from al-Qaeda. Dubai welcomes hundreds of ship visits every year from the U.S. Navy and allied ships. It has worked with U.S. agents to stop terrorist financing and nuclear cooperation. But none of that mattered to the craven members of Congress — neither to the Democrats who first sensed a delicious political opportunity nor to the Republicans who then fled in unseemly panic. As to long-term damage to the United States’ security, economy and alliances? Not of concern to the great deliberative body.

Read it all. When it comes to Virginia politics, the Post ed board is off its rocker, handicapping the Democrats’ performance. But when it comes to national security, the Post usually nails it, as it does today.
