“All Obama had to do was waive the Act, the lazy know-nothing muslim puke.”

I'm not defending Obama, as I agree on the know-nothing mooselimb puke part, but I worry about the unintended consequences of waving or repealing the Jones Act.
It would open up our ports to even further invasions from vessels built, owned and manned by muslims, illegal aliens and the rest of Americas enemies.

So who owns and mans all the ships bringing in oil and goods now? Who owns and mans all of the cruise ships? How did the Russian ships get permission to visit SF? This law is bullsh8t!

Sorry for the double post. It took forever for the comment to post for some reason today.

Good point. Doing away with the Jones Act is just something the Liberal Globalists will love...who see nothing wrong with dangerous foreign nations and nationals running our shipping.

Would not surprise me that Obama, McCain, and all the Liberal Globalists wanted to use this oil disaster as a way to repeal Jones, and sell out our shipping to foreign nations.

In fact, the Jones Act should have never been applied to the Gulf oil rig blowout...as the rig was in International waters.
