Unbelieveable that UAE's Dubai Ports would be considered by ANYONE to operate ANY of our ports at ANY time.
I had to lift myself off the floor when I found out that Dubai Port World was being considered to be allowed to take over port operations in New York, New Jersey, Baltimore, New Orleans, Miami and Philadelphia. I am absolutely flabbergasted, sickened, ... general state of disbelief that anyone, much less those in BlunderBush's administration can be so moronic to ever contemplate allowing a UAE company to run an American port. This can't be allowed to happen. It won't be allowed to happen because it is so ludicrous. As dumb as Bush is and as often as I've been stunned by this administrations stupendous blunders, I can't imagine that this is going to be pushed through.
Bush is sitting back waiting to see how much media stink his most recent attempt to help his UAE comrades is going to stir up. Eventually he'll or most likely one of his cronies will stumble his way to the press mikes and blabber about how this Dubai take over isn't going to be approved and hopes that everyone quickly forgets.
Even if Chertoff can gaurantee Dubai would not be a security risk, what if Saudi connected terrorists attack one of our ports? Chertoff would have to take over heck-of-a-job Brownie's throne as the king of imbiciles.
If I were a family member of a 9/11 victim I would be screaming mad. Who would of thought that on 9/12 this administration would consider even for an instant to allow a UAE company to operate our ports. It's disgraceful.
Someone needs to ask Bush why he didn't consider this outrages proposal dead in the water from the outset.
