I don't think people would have piled on if Bush hadn't laid down the gauntlet in defending this UAE company by threatening to use his first veto if Congress didn't accept the deal, and then unfairly trying to define his opponents motivations as anti-Muslim. His initial refusal to allow a review by Congress and his arrogance that the administration would never make a mistake and should be fully trusted put him square and deservingly in the line of fire, IMO.
