Sometimes just the look of impropriety is enough. This is a President who does NOTHING about illegal immigration, now sells our PORTS to out enemies...I'm sorry, this is the perverbial straw...I've had it with this guy.

I'm perplexed you see it that way, actually I'm not perplexed. Throwing the baby out with the bathwater.

Frankly, the only thing that is going to change is the name of the port operator. Everything else remains the same.

I actually supported CAFTA as well, but the rest of your comments are spot-on.

No you don't. You should recognize that those leftist swine are opposing the President on this issue solely for political expediency. They'd be the first to invite the Islamists in if left to their own devices.

How many demonstrations did you attend in the streets?

I'm not going to play your silly games. If you have a point then make it.

The question remains unanswered by you.

The point has been made.

Would you feel the same way if it were Iran rather than the UAE?

A Look Back in TIME

Interview with Timothy McVeigh TIME's Patrick Cole talks to the defendant in prison

Timothy McVeigh met with TIME months before the start of the trial in which he would be convicted of the bombing of the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building in Oklahoma City that killed 168 people. In an extensive conversation with TIME correspondent Patrick Cole in Oklahoma's El Reno Federal Correctional Institute on March 30, 1996, McVeigh talked about his problems with the federal government, his service in the Gulf War, and the case against him.

TIME: Are you religious?

MCVEIGH: I was raised Catholic. I was confirmed Catholic (received the sacrament of confirmation). Through my military years, I sort of lost touch with the religion. I never really picked it up, however I do maintain core beliefs.

TIME: Do you believe in God?

MCVEIGH: I do believe in a God, yes. But that's as far as I want to discuss. If I get too detailed on some things that are personal like that, it gives people an easier way alienate themselves from me and that's all they are looking for now.

From The Heart Of Niagara County: www.Lockport-NY.com OnLine Since 1996

McVeigh, who was raised a Catholic but deserted his faith, had been given Last Rites by a prison chaplain, the Lockport Home Page learned shortly after the execution.

In your own little imaginary world. For the rest of us that don't live in that world, please share the point.

Excuse me, but maybe it's because the English and the French are our ALLIES.

No matter who it is, no matter if it's the British, the French, the Germans, or even the Andorrans. They have to play by our laws.

"None that is Constituional."

So what is the below clause of our Constitution? Some sort of hoax?

United States Constitution: article 1 section 8 clause 3: "To regulate commerce with foreign nations, and among the several states, and with the Indian tribes;"

Has this clause been deleted without the knowledge of Congress?

I see links to socialist websites. Am I supposed to believe socialist websites?

Besides, where were Catholics IN THE STATES marching against the IRA? That's what you want, isn't it? American Muslims doing penance for what Saudi Muslims did?

You're nothing but a MSM dupe. You repeat their lies.

I posted the exact quote at least three times already. Which part of it do you not understand?

The quote was removed from its full context. Shall I go back and get the full context???

The full context shows the opposite meaning of what you said.

The MSM plays with your head -- and you believe them.

If Congress sinks the deal and overrides Bush we will be the laughing stock of the world. For starters, we will loose a strong ally in the war against terror.

Before any of you criticize the President get your facts straight and ask yourselves why he is in the White House and why many of are behind a computer writing what we don't or can't comprehend.
