So where's the article about Joeseph Kennedy's ties to the Nazi Germany? ;)
Well I guaran-gd-tee you if we tell em to stick their petro dollars they'll find someplace for the money to land. You may not like where it ends up.
The UAE will do a bang up job of running America's ports!
The first sentence includes this:
POSSIBLE ties between
And now Richard Clarke will be the new hero around here.
Wow!
9-11 commission? Yeah, those guys are competent.
Newsmax is as bad as Schumer and Hillary on this raising the boogieman issue.
BOOGA BOOGA BOOO BAD Mooooslims are gonna git you.
Except Hillary already is beginning to backtrack on this....
BTW, "Port operations" are run by local Goverments, NOT by private companies. The UAE will operate slips IN OUR ports NOT "operate the ports" as the Democrat Senate Election Comittee Press release sent out last week claims. They are LYING to you again.
Why don't all the panic stricken Port Deal Foes point out most of the financial and operational support for 9-11 Terrorists was conducted in Germany? When are we going to boot All German Companies out of our Logictic chain because of their "ties to Bin Laden"?
And don't forget the infamous photo of Rumsfeld laughing it up with Saddam. Things change.
Yeah, well, the 9/11 Commission couldn't even find the clear ties between one of its own members -- Jamie Gorelick -- and the failure to stop the 9/11 attacks.
Did you hear the one about how the UAE offered 10 Million to NO after the hurricane? Reminds me of when Saudi Arabia offered New York 5 Million. The difference was the NY mayor had backbone...
The Bin Laden "ties" consist of Bin Laden having been "near" a UAE hunting camp in Afghanistan, as if proximity to someone makes you complicit with them. (I once shook Bill Clinton's hand. I guess that ties me in to his rape of Juanita Broaderick) and some unnamed UAE official having some unnamed connection to Bin Laden in 1999. No word on who this person is, what their position in the govt. is or was, whether they are still in the govt, what the connection was, nor the fact that it's lapsed in the 7 years since. And pre-9-11 and post-9-11 are 2 different mindsets. I see no evidence that the UAE has continued in its pre-9-11 way of doing things. We can't say the same of the AP or the Democratic party.
A POSSIBLE connection 7 years ago? That's no reason to break a contract with an ally.
Again, this whole outcry is being stoked by the liberal media who are reacting out of xenophobia.
This is a great political and business decision and one we should all support!
The media is creeping closer to stating the issue correctly. "Take over operations at" is more correct than "take over operations of". The most correct would be "take over operations of some terminals at".
Listening to the stupid statements of C-SPAN listeners I got the opinion that they believe that;
- We are selling complete ports.
- We will pay the A-RABS to run the ports.
- The sale should be subject to the lowest bidder.
- That KBR and Haliburton could be paid to operate the terminals
- Bush should be impeached
- The Bush family profits financially from the deal.
And this was from Pubbies, Independants and RATS.
Well, now. I guess that tells us everything we need to know.
If the 9-11 Commission said it, it must be true.
Also, the UAE controls most of the oil we get - the Dem's are preventing us from opening up ANWAR which has proven oil more than the Saudi's ... what's to prevent them (UAE) from just closing the tap??
