Thanks for posting this - - it is one of the best articles on the ports issue that I have seen - - mainly because the writer has done a little research and is informed. Congratulations to Dick Meyer for having the integrity to avoid the lazy, knee-jerk reaction.
Yemen was a fairly friendly port once.
Knee-jerk reaction? How else are we supposed to feel? Many of us lost friends in that attack.
Would we have opened our ports for control by any country with even REMOTE ties to Hitler during the 2nd WW?
Okay. Fine. Let's just trust them.
Wake me when the dust cloud settles.

Hmmmm...my sleepy knee is startin' to itch again with posts like this.
All Bush needs to do is explain to the GOP leadership how he came to the conclusion that all of america's security is...well...secured. He hasn't done this, and that is pretty piss-poor PR, prankly.
Thank you for your feedback, Lancey.
