"You've been here since 1998, lol."
And you haven't, LOL. And I already addressed this by saying they are all singing off of the same page. They have their marching orders. It' funny how the Coast Guard had grave concerns, but as soon as that info made it into the press, the Coast Guard suddenly began singing a different tune about how their concerns had all been addressed. Yeah, sure. Plus it is immaterial that the POTUS, US Navy, Coast Guard and Generals say otherwise. Generals, the Navy, and the POTUS have no part in port security. The Coast Guard does, so that's one out of the four you list. None of them could guarantee who might be hired that would have terrorist ties, by the Dubai port managers. None of them could guarantee what would be shipped where, when, and how, the port managers would do that. All it would take is a couple of rotten terrorist apples in the Dubai port managers' infrastructure, to do us harm. By the way, we weren't talking about my ability to express an opinion, which I do often and in rather thorough detail everytime I post. We were discussing a Congressman's opinion as vs. generals, POTUS, the U.S. Navy rep and the Coast Guard rep, all who answer to the POTUS, don't they. He's their boss. Funny how they all agree w/his opinion.
I also wasn't born yesterday. So, when General Franks and Abizaid gave updates on the WOT from CENTCOM, were you equally jaded? Just curious. Are these men liars who only worship at the altar of Bush?
Oh for heaven sake, what a conspiracy. Well certainly we must look with disrespect at the the Generals, and the Coast Guard because they work for the military. And we should certainly listen to demagogic congresscritters like P. King and Chuckie Schumer. As if they have no axe to grind.
