Maybe, but Bush had best be revealing why he is outsourcing port security when we are paying zillions of dollars for dozens of state and federal agencies to do the job.

And how much faith can we have in a country of the Third World to defend our ports?

This is a bad move.

You could be right for all I know ... but per Tom Ridge, the management company is NOT responsible for port security ... that remains with the Coast Guard.

Bush had best be revealing why he is outsourcing port security . . .

This may qualify as the single most ignorant statement on any of the threads related to this story.
