Howlin, it's not that I've been all that great, it's just I was concerned about this deal and wasn't sure what I thought about it. Instead of going with my first inclination I decided to wait until more information came out. I also decided to do some research about how DPW operated because I thought this issue was important.
Y'know, we say muslim's need to be dragged into the 21st century and they need to quit operating with a 7th century mentality. Yet when they operate on the free market in the same manner as other western countries, they get shot down because they're mooooooslims. It sure shows up quite a number of FReepers as being hypocritical. These FReepers can't have it both ways.
I've read all this cr@p about how an American business ought to have bid and bought BPO but these same people haven't gotten around to thinking maybe no American company wanted the headache of dealing with the unions. None of them wanted to spend the capital to make the improvements to the facilities.
All I know to do is to shake my head in puzzlement over the shortsightedness of the anti's. Why didn't they do their own research? Why did they go with their emotions instead of seeing whether this might be a good business deal for the US in the long run?
So anyone that does not agree with you did not do their research? And let thier emotions run away with them. LOL.
As I have oft repeated on this thread, with only a hand full understanding, is that this deal, is not being debated or fought on it's merits. What we have here is a grass roots (conservative grass roots) rebellion over the globalist open borders policies of the Bush administration. The people have HAVE IT WITH GLOBALISM, so weather the port deal is or is not a good deal does not matter. It real issue is nationalism vrs globalism.
Well, they can't say they didn't see the facts; you sure put them right in front of their monitors!
