Like I said or implied, they may not open the sealed containers and search them (unless a seal is broken) but that doesn't mean that these shipments will be exempt from the normal dogs and/or sensor (radiation) routine. RFID is about paperwork issues.

Let me be clear. I'm not happy about substandard Mexican trucks being on US highways, that was one of Bush's mistakes. I'm not thrilled with current border and port inspection proceedures, more can and should be done. But this inland port issue isn't the creation of a giant security hole that Corsi and Joe Farah so desparately want to believe. We've had inland ports for years, Virginia's in Front Royal is a good example.

Back in the Clinton years I was a big fan of Farah and World Nut Daily. In 2004 I took Corsi at his word. As time passed and I've been able to read their work on subjects that I am actually somewhat or very familiar with, I've come to despise them as shoddy, alarmist, frequently wrong, and the type who can backfire and harm conservatism. All too often they jump to the wrong conclusions and make it clear that they have no idea what they are talking about. So perhaps my rudeness was too much, from patience worn thin, but I can't stand dishonest demagogues, no matter what side of politics they are on.

Anyway, have a good evening.

I accept your apologies as well, and hope you have a good evening (morning as well).

Also, regardless of your feelings on WND, I hope you research this issue. Also, ask yourself why county after county in Texas is voting down this project. Here is a pretty good site to get you started, of course dont take their word for it, verify iit for yourself. http://www.corridorwatch.org/ttc/index.htm

Are you saying his Swift Boat work was dishonest?

Fight the good fight, Mr. Squat. I've lost patience with these loons.
