It stinks on a number of levels to be sure.

Sure.
And I'll bet you think we should never let foreign companies run flight schools here in the United States . . . because we all know that some Arab Muslim who shows up at a U.S.-owned flight school and says he's only interested in learning to fly a plane in the air (and not interested in landing or taking off) is going to raise so much suspicion that he'll never be able to fly a 757 into the World Trade Center or the Pentagon.

See #82.
People seem to forget that the company ownership and management isn't the weakest link in our security processes. The weakest link is the longshoreman, truck driver, law enforcement officer, etc. with a double-digit IQ who accepts a cash bribe from some Sicilian-looking guy to "look the other way" when a container gets processed at the port or an off-site warehouse.

Some of these freepers lately must be on the payroll of the RNC. Can't figure out any other explanation.I'm sure you're right.

There aren't many groups I trust less than the Democrats, but Muslims are one of them. Let's face facts. The administration dropped the ball on this one and no amount of spinning will change that.
There are a number of conservative Republicans that are as opposed as Schumer.

You made my point. Post-9/11 we have to be much more suspicious and proactive against possible terrorism. Never indicated we were that before.

the companies are going to back out of it themselves this week - that is my prediction.
but if not, prepare for some inquiries into who the UAE lobbyists are, and who they lobbied.
To: LibWhacker
. "It doesn't sound good to let some Arab shieks to be in charge of our ports - that's what it comes down to."
But we allow anti-American democrats, French Companies, German Companies, Canadians to own and run businesses that supply our defense weapons and equipment, so what is the difference?

This isn't about truth or facts. It's about perception and appearance. Brit is probably correct in his analysis.

You and I may agree on a lot of topics, but this will never be one of them unless you come to your senses. Almost daily there is another fruit-cake idea lately that is not just problematic in it's own right, but when coupled with a myriad of other hair-brained disasterous notions, places this nation in the 'house of cards' category, when it comes to national security.
This plan is absurd. I'm sorry you can't see it.
