Brits are not foreigners?

"It does not hurt my ego to say that I truly do not know everything that Bush has done regarding border security."

Let me give you a hint: NADA, ZILCH, ZERO.

Even Bush-Bots know that much.

[Pukin Dog]

HOLY CRAP, I GUESS WE MUST GET RID OF FOX NEWS!!!

If President Bush approves this, he needs to be impeached and removed from Office immediately for Non-feasance. I never thought I would agree with Hillary, but on this I agree 100%.

Any President who would allow the TROJAN HORSE to enter our ports must be mad EX-President immediately. It is Congress' job to step up to the plate and do their jobs if President Bush refuses to do his.

I don't want a hint, I want a fact.

Or an admission that you don't have one.

[F16Fighter]

Your post is WORTH REPEATING TO THE DEAF, DUMB AND BLIND on this thread.

[Dane]

In either event, you do NOT want foreigners controlling our ports. What the heck is with BUSH?

Where was your outrage when P&O(a foreign firm) was operating from US ports.

BTW, DPWorld is not "controlling" the ports.

[Pukin Dog]

Bush already approved it. Go side with Hillary if you want to.

[Pukin Dog]

Just remember, I tried to warn you.

[ozoneliar]

If that is true, then why do you feel you have a valid opinion one way or the other? The facts are out there for you to read, you dont have to listen to any of us.

It is easy to say the facts are out there to back up your assertions that this deal is safe. Furthermore, I am opposed to the whole deal simply because UAE would gain money at American taxpayer expense. I would gladly pay 10 dollars a gallon or its equivalent, rather than have my money benefit OPEC.

"Brits are not foreigners?"

Last I heard they were not U.S. citizens. Has that changed? Haven't there also been times when their interests are NOT the same as ours? Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm?

[Dane]

HOLY CRAP, I GUESS WE MUST GET RID OF FOX NEWS!!!

According to steller dendrite and Frank Gaffney, yes.

Does anyone remember AQ Khan?

Here is some interesting information regarding Khan and the UAE (Itzy, if you wanna ping the whole gang feel free..hat tip to sangrila for this info)

"On 25 May 1999, UAE Minister for Information
and Culture Shaykh Abdullah Bin
Zayid Al Nuhayyan met with Pakistani
nuclear scientist Abdul Qadeer Kahn at A.
Q. Khan Research Laboratories in
Rawalpindi. Zaiyid was interested in obtaining
Pakistani help in the nuclear field. Khan
replied: “Pakistan would not present the
atomic bomb or a missile on a platter but
could train UAE manpower.”
Pakistan (Islamabad), 26 May 1999,



"The United Arab Emirates (UAE) Minister
of Information and Culture Shaykh
Abdullah bin Zayed Al-Nahyan, during his
visit to Pakistan in May, stated that Pakistan
could contribute to the Middle East peace
process through their nuclear capabilities.
“Islamabad’s nuclear capabilities can serve
as a catalyst and Pakistan can play a key role
in putting tremendous pressure on Israel."

So the fact that the Brits are currently working in these ports as 'operators' and will do so after they are purchased by the Dubai company changes what?

Please answer.

Try again.

If you think prosecuting only three employers last year when there's millions of illegals in the country, many of whom came in under this administration's watch is not incompetence or worse then it's you who needs to keep trying. Your attempted defense of the indefensible isn't working.

[F16Fighter]

"Facts" proving incompetent, indifferent, "open-door" national security at the Mexican border are a dime a dozen, as well as noted in hundreds of towns and cities across America since 9/11.

Dwell in your own delusional bubble if it suits you.

[Pukin Dog]

I guess the utter hypocrisy of there being no outrage over the part-Saudi, Brit and American owned Fox News, but complete nut-job outrage over this port deal between a Dubai company along with a Danish partner to buy a British company that works in the U.S. will go unnoticed?

"If you think prosecuting only three employers last year when there's millions of illegals in the country, many of whom came in under this administration's watch is not incompetence or worse then it's you who needs to keep trying. Your attempted defense of the indefensible isn't working."

Even Clinton prosecuted hundreds of employers.

Whoops, looks like I cut off the end of the text in paragraph two of #134...I put the extra text in BOLD:


The United Arab Emirates (UAE) Minister of Information and Culture Shaykh Abdullah bin Zayed Al-Nahyan, during his visit to Pakistan in May, stated that Pakistan could contribute to the Middle East peace process through their nuclear capabilities. “Islamabad’s nuclear capabilities can serve as a catalyst and Pakistan can play a key role in putting tremendous pressure on Israel to vacate the occupied territories and restore the rights of Palestinians.”
