I want to go to Dubai, just to see Michael Jackson in drag at the mall.....


Seriously though, this sends a chilling message to every moderat muslim nation.....Muslims need not apply.....DP world is the largest port authority on the planet......Its a shame that knee jerk reactions on the left and right scuttled this deal.....

"every moderat muslim"

All three of them moderate rats.
Or was it two?

Lose the oil,
get a clue.

Noory has come on, time to turn off the radio.

George of Arabia rides again

IF YOU HAD ANY DOUBTS
WHERE BUSH'S REAL LOYALITES LIE
--

On Lou Dobbs Show today, he announced that Bush's Daddy's money machine -- the Carlyle Group -- has announced (since this port deal did not go thru) that THEY will buy $1 BILLION worth of "U.S. infrastructure such as ports...."

So what, you say? Well, maybe you should google "Carlyle Group" and see just who is involved. The UAE has given $8 BILLION to the Carlyle Group. Not to mention that the Bush family Carlyle piggybank also had many members of the bin Ladin family on its roster. So many in fact that the Bushes flew out the bin Ladin family the day after 9-11 because it "would not look good" for the Bushes to be associated with the family of the guy who just murdered 3000 Americans.

The Bush family, whose total loyalties lie with the Saudis -- and the Arabs of the UAE -- have now essentially told all Americans concerned with the national security of our ports to essentially F--K OFF. This announcement that the Bush family's main money source -- Carlyle Group -- will buy American ports they know full well that it is just a backdoor giveaway of our ports to the UAE. The Bushes, the Carlyle Group, and the UAE and other Middle Easterners arethisclose in all their business dealings. Bush's oil pals mean more to that family than America ever would.

The Bushes (both Daddy and his punk son) have now told all Americans the following -- "You didn't want this port deal, America, so our Carlyle Group will just buy up all of the U.S. infrastructure (the ports) ourselves and the UAE (who has heavy investments in Carlyle) will OWN IT ANYWAY. ARROGANCE!

This dumb fool Bush and his criminal administration have thrived on "terror" and "anti-Muslim, anti-Arab, anti-Middle Easterners" since 9-11-2001. The Bush Administration made the Muslim "war on terror and Islamofascists" the centerpiece of every move they made. So when America -- after 5 years of this crap -- listened and expressed concern about our national security at the ports -- Bush insults every American when he didn't get his way with the port deal by calling us "islamophobes" and "anti-Arab" and every single insult that traitor Bush could heap on Americans. Bush does not like being told he cannot do something. Dictators are like that.

ANYONE who still follows this arrogant, anti-American fool is just as rotten and hates America just as much as Bush does.

Perhaps if Bushling weren't such an incompetent asshole our relationsip with the ME would be a functional one. But he isn't. Worse yet those that voted him in fucked up by putting Mr. Cowboy diplomacy in charge because they liked the way he talked. You quasi wannabe republican fucks are an embarassment to the world. You sold the soul of this country for a $300 tax rebate because you misunderestimated what a loser he is and you contiue to do so all along the way. When things don't work out it is always someone elses fault. That in itself should be a clue that the DC dopes aren't leading because they are always a victim of circumstance.
You pricks pride yourself saying you have a plan and the democrats don't and then it is made obvious that you didn't have a plan for Iraq, catching bin Laden, Katrina, homeland security, illegal immigration ad infinitim, deficit. Ergo you don't have a plan you merely say you do.
Now you are once again blaming another failure on "knee jerks" Hellllloooooooooooo!!!!!!!
WHAT KIND OF BULLSHIT IS THAT COMING FROM A STRONG LEADER??

A STRONG LEADER DOESN'T MAKE EXCUSES FOR FAILURE! Not to mention chronic patterns of failure.

Obviously this country has no leader and Dubai knows it. Hence they pulled out because Bushling doesn't wield control over the country he is president of. You guys are a joke!

BTW more people have died in Iraq under Bushlings watch and since Saddam has been ousted. So much for all those lives he was saving by getting rid of a tyrant.

For somebody (Bush) who said he knew "nothing about the deal until just a couple of days before it was announced" Bush surrrrrrrrrrrre is MAD that this turnover of our ports didn't do thru. So just who is really behind Bush's adamant veto threat --the CARLYLE GROUP?? -- Daddy Bush and those Arab sheiks the Bush boys love more than their own country?

Just who is running the show in the White House? Bushie is running around threatening his first time ever veto over this deal and calling the American people"racists" and "anti-Arab" and "islamophobic" and every name and insult he can think of. Hmmmmmm? Isn't Bush just a little bit tooooooooo upset for a business deal getting cancelled that he "just found out about"?

Good posts, Chris. What the hell can we do?

Zeit -

Its a shame that knee jerk reactions on the left and right scuttled this deal.....

Guess you are really more pro-Bush -- at the expense of America and its concern for its national security than I ever thought.

REPUBLICAN Dennis Hastert and the other Republicans trust Bush so little that they are still going to go thru with a total vote on the House floor that DP World NOT get the ports deal. Guess the Republicans now realize that Bush truly doesn't give a damn about them or America either and they don't trust Bush any farther than they can throw him. Good for Hastert. About time most of America sees Bush for what he really is.

oh please......give me a break......

stop eating so much sushi out on that left coast....

the very same people who whine and cry about profiling are the same ones whining about this....I dont know if they are a bad risk, even after reading as much as I can about it, but it has become so political that none of us knows as much about it as we THINK we do........

and the only thing better than this would have been for haliburton to get it......
and if you are crying about this....where were you when the friggin chinease commies bout the terminals on the west coast?

Publicly lament a deal that caused your whole party to turn on you. Brilliant strategy. Rove's once genius mind has obviously been riddled with syphilis, because after all that's happened I don't know how any of his advisors could have seen this as a good idea. Oh well. It's fun to see Bush's own people turn on him. *gets popcorn*

BUSHLOVERTWO

I was very much against letting the Chinese - COSCO - run our ports out here. That was the doing of another globalist in the White House - Bill Clinton. Both Clinton and Bush are free trading globalists -- although no one has been worse than Bush. WAKE UP. Your boy Bush is more concerned about his Daddy's piggy bank -- the Carlyle Group -- and he and his daddy's Arab sheik oil boys and the profits of the multinationals than they ever are about America.

Chris.....Billy Clinton is in the pockets of the UAE, so is Carter......Shillary has brainwashed the moonbats into mischarterizing this deal and the republicans ran like scared dogs....


You have turned the 'Carlyle group' into a dirty word....Whats up, are you sick of using Halliburton as the boogeyman?

I am wide awake and I see democrats with no issue trying to make something out of it that 'aint' there.......

but at least you have the nads to tell the truth about clinton....

and how will he come out on this deal...I thought it was pretty interesting how he was behind a lot of this as hillary was railing against it......seems pretty certain that they didnt discuss before they went to sleep lately.......

in this whole affair....I keep wondering why it is that american companies cant do all of it.....unions? government beaurocratic bullshit? taxes?
OSHA perhaps.......if we can come up with some solutions on this through all of this..maybe something better will come out of it.

No one has done more to engender a fear of Arabs for political gain than BushCo. If we suffer from Islamophobia, Bush has no one but himself to thank for it.

Sure, we want outside nations to invest in our country.

Nonetheless, by his own machinations, Bush has built his realm on the basis of a threatening Middle East that's part of the so-called axis of evil, an unimaginative regurgitation of Reagan's evil empire notion.

And now that it has backfired on him, oh, boo hoo. All of you Bush apologists should go out and buy a Ford, buy American products, give the American worker, the few that are left, your money and support, and quit weeping for his real Billionaires for Bush Islamic bedfellows.

Bush treats the oil producing nations better than he treats us. Look at how he has abused his own country. The neglect, the mismanagement, wiretapping his own citizens, allowing New Orleans to drown. Bush is hands down the worst president ever. The sooner we're rid of him, the better. To our dismay, however, he has too much time left in which to do immense damage. I fear what's coming down the pike from this charlatan.

crap...forgot...

you talk about the bush family with carlye group and if it WERE haliburton we would hear the same thing about cheney...
so can you see why it looks to us that this charge is the same old liberal song and dance?

mr nut......do you realize that about noon today rush said that libs would say what you just did....almost exactly.....

he read an article from some guy who blamed this on bush because of the war on terror...that is just plain silly........



and again....I still dont have a handle on just how I think about the ex deal....seems okay one day and then I wonder.........

MR. PEANUT

Excellent post!!!!

the very same people who whine and cry about profiling are the same ones whining about this. Fuck you Bushpussydeux.
Bushling said himself that we are addicted to oil. (big duh) The prick said we should be weaning ourselves from dependance on ME oil. (big duh) Then the fucker turns around and does everything he can to keep us plugged into the quagmire that is the ME. Yes I said the ME. Notice the one's that aren't fighting with boots on the ground in any of the hot spots of their own region (heaven help them if they kill a Muslim brother) but Bushling the the junkie fuck that he is by nature decides he will pistol whip any one his connection asks him to insure that we are supllied with his favorite drug.

All that happened is that congress threated to insure that we could be cutting back on our dependence because they are going to seek buyers elsewhere.Its a little tough love. Get used to it. You're going to have to tighten your fat belts and lose a little weight.

oooooops there goes Bushlings secret little economic plan shot to hell. I guess we are just stuck with that fucking deficit he created after all. Looks like another plan that never was. I can hear it now.... somebody elses fault. The conservative whines may now commence.

BLT .....Just remember, 'Mr. Nut' is what he eats....Don't let him breath on you.......

AND>......this should stop all the nonsense about the republican bush locksteppers, I would imagine. I mean how can you say that after all this....


and who was it that said that americans get what they really say they want?
problem is that there are STILL people on tv saying things like this was a deal for them to run the port and security and we know thats not what it was.........

more clouds on the issue.

Skank, why have you been putting off that lobotomy for so long?.......No better time than the present......

the very same people who whine and cry about profiling are the same ones whining about this. Fuck you Bushpussydeux.



hey shanker....we were having a civilized converstaion here about the issue....what makes you think that this would make us all want to know what you think about it.......guess the french version of bl2 provides us with some insight.

BLT-
problem is that there are STILL people on tv saying things like this was a deal for them to run the port and security and we know thats not what it was.........

more clouds on the issue.


What was it, in actuality, 'cause no one ever really explained it well.

from what I heard they would be running terminals in the ports since the ports are owned by government entities...state.local...etc..
.
and that the coast guard would continue to do security.....and why is it that noone is worried or at least making a fuss about the foreign airlines and the places where these containers are LOADED and all of that...

and here is another thought.....

most of the 9/11 bastards were saudis.....as we read here all the time.....then why in the hell is air saudi, if thats the name allowed to land at our airports?


What was it, in actuality, 'cause no one ever really explained it well.

Ignorance is bliss, aye Boyd?....If you would have spent ten minutes googling the facts, you would have been able to come to an informed decsion, like I did.....

If the President disagrees with it, why didn't he every try to present a case to support his own views-He still can-not sure why he's waiting

there has been no one on the right who has said that this wasnt mishandled that I know of. your question is a good one though......

AAARGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHH


BULLSHIT ALERT!!!!!!!!

listening to tavis smiley and the head of the naaLcp just said that "the naacp being a NON PARTISAN organization".....

AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH is he kidding...


sorry about the subject switch...I had to get up off the floor to type it......

Rex-
I didn't say I didn't, but no one who said it was no big deal ever explained it very well.

They still haven't.

How would you "charterize" it?

But that was funny, REX.

DP Worlds top executives are American....they would have no control over any aspect of Port security.....The UAE (DP World) is the largest shipping company in the world, and handles ports all over Europe.....


The comment about two 9/11 perpetrators operating out of the UAE is ridicuous....Germany hosted the Hamburg cell which Mohammed Atta was part of, would tee reaction be the same for a German company?....UAE is the best ally on the war on terror outside of Israel in the middle east.....Providing airspace and intel......


The vast majority of politicans reacted to this without an iota of information about the deal.....


The plain truth is no one would have ever noticed any difference in anything had the original deal gone through.......U.S. Port security bigwigs said this whole thing is ridiculous......

guess the french version of bl2 provides us with some insight. Fuck you again Bushpussydeux. You can't be having a civilized conversation when you are talking bullshit about the dilussional president running the country Especially if you are apologizing for the knuckle dragger in chief.

BTW the French were right in not joining Bushlings excellent adventure. Remember no WMDs?! The war was unjustified? Er.... the world is not safer because Saddam (the contained leader of a teenie chunk of sand in the ME) is deposed. They had the same intellegence and yet managed to operate with more intellegence. Your passe euro-trash arguments don't work because is now so obvious that they showed better judgement... and will probably walk away with the ME oil bubble attached to their currency. Meanwhile those dollars and pound notes guarded by two clowns that talk to God will be something akin to Mexican pesos.

OOOO darn there goes another republican non plan that didn't work.

well buckaroos....I dont usually talk like that but I figured you would expect it coming from texas......

early tee time and if I am going to apply the whoopass like I did today......
75 with a bogie on the lasthole......I am now going to sign off....NO no....dont try and talk me into staying...cant do it......

cue the strings......I'll be seeing you in all the old familiar places.......la da doooooooooooooooooooooooooo

yeah the french were right for sure...
particularly when they had HOW MANY BILLIONS going there in oil for food or other deals with sadaam?
do we HAVE to go here again......at least maybe we can read some of those good french jokes............

I did have a breif encounter with a french woman during the two weeks I was in new york.....love that accent...but shit....that hair under the arms......yuk.

Especially if you are apologizing for the knuckle dragger in chief.



whats it like to not be able to read almost every post on the subject.......



hey....wasnt I supposed to be out of here........help Im on the retort and I cant get up!!!!!!!!

Rex-
Just acouple of questions, the first that come to mind:

1. Should't the 45 day investigation have been triggered, as a foreign gov't (yes, in the ME. One that doesn't recognize Israel) was involved. ?

2. Who are these "U.S. Port security bigwigs"?

Saudi arabia doesn't recognize Israel and they control 25% of our oil imports......A much bigger security problem........

And I saw an interview with the heads of both the Boston and New York port security....Both said they had no idea what the issue even was.....and that they TOTALLY controlled every aspect of security....then they lead the reporter through the entire sequense of events a cargo ship goes through, security wise........


That is what convinced me......

The 45 days are a moot point now, the deal is dead......

The vast majority of politicans reacted to this without an iota of information about the deal.....

I would agree with that. The list unfortunately includes the POTUS.

UAE is the best ally on the war on terror outside of Israel in the middle east.....Providing airspace and intel...... Bullshit. You are so dillusional its mind boggling.

Desert Storm they gave us that AND 40,000 troops in the sand not to mention supporting artillery The Saudi's had 118,000 in the sand. In other words as many troops as we have now! Not a single Islamic nation is fighting in Iraq.

This time around they are a fucking gas pump at a hig profit with little interest in this war ending any time soon. We are suppose to be stablizing their region making the world safer for them. Where the fuck are they? They are making record profits. building schools, hospitals, ect ect ect and buy port contracts. I don't begrudge them profit but gee wiz I think this whole Iraq thing would have moved a whole lot faster with a lot more help from the get go. But ya know they just weren't behind us as much as Bushling wants you to believe they were. Nobody was.

REX-
You don't have to convince me about the security patrols. I found it interesting for other reasons.

BOYD

What was it, in actuality, 'cause no one ever really explained it well.

Bush kept saying we had the U.S. Coast Guard and Customs at the docks for security. Again, Bush misleads. Here it is in a nutshell:

Coast Guard -- handles security ONLY while the ships are ON THE WATER.

Customs -- handles security only from the time when the shipping containers are hoisted off the ship onto the loading dock.

Terminal operators
(DP World, or any company that has control of the ports) -- handles EVERYTHING once the customs inspectors review the shipping containers after they have been loaded off the ship. The terminal operators would be in charge of moving the containers from the shipping docks to the trucks and/or rail lines AND for separating them on the docks for shipping across the USA. They would also be in charge of the manifest of what is coming in and out, who gets what, what container is put on what truck for shipment across the country.

In otherwords, once our Customs checks the shipping containers dockside, EVERYTHING else -- what gets shipped, with whom, on what truck, where -- all is in the hands of the terminal operator. The possibilities for ANYTHING and/or ANYONE that got past the 5% of shipping containers inspected by our Customs officers to then be given a free pass from that point on would be endless for a terrorist. All a terrorist would have to do is hope that the ship docks and that he gets past dockside inspection by Customs. From that point on a terrorist -- and a shipping terminal operator who might be in cahoots with him -- can direct that terrorist and any of his supplies (nuke, etc.) to any of the trucks to go anywhere in this country.

Once the shipping container is hoisted off the ship and away from the dock into the terminal -- the Coast Guard and Customs no longer have any control over it. That's why Bush's fake argument about being protected inside the terminals by Customs and the Coast Guard was just more Bush bull.

"The 45 days are a moot point now..."

If they are, then they've learned nothing.

The French prime minister told Spain last week that France would NOT sell them an energy plant they wanted to buy. Spain was pissed off about it but the French prime minister said that it was "economic patriotism" not to sell off important French assests, even to an ally like Spain.

You would NEVER hear the words "economic patriotism" out of Bush's mouth. NEVER.

Chris, that can happen RIGHT NOW.....How would it be any more likely with DP World in charge?.......the personnel would remain exactly the same......A terrorist could put something in a cargo container anywhere in the world......


Its incredible that I am taking Jimmy Carters side and you are taking Denny Hasterts side.....


Either way, its a moot point....THE DEAL IS DEAD.......


Rex


P.S. Skank, save your breath freak......You are on my 'lunatic fool' list, I automatically discard anything youpost.....

and P.S. Skank....no one but the U.S. and British forces did JACKSHIT during Desert Storm.........I know, I was there.....

CC-
That's the most striking post I've read all day.

Food for thought, at the very least.

Boyd....that is the way it is RIGHT NOW......nothing would be different or should I say, would have been.....

CC-
(I was referring to your 2:13 post)

REX-
Yeah, but they did pony up the green. As creepy as that sounds, and is.

Either way, its a moot point....THE DEAL IS DEAD.......

Not "dead" enough for Hastert, the rest of the Republicans and all the Democrats. They are still going to have a full House vote on the Dubai deal. That is essentially a "no confidence" vote in G.W. Bush. They don't trust him (or his Arab buddies) to tell the truth that that the deal is dead and that Bush isn't going to pull a fast one PLUS they want it on record (to show the voters in their home districts) that they personally voted "NO" on this deal.

Bush is history. Once the Republicans have defied Bush now, it's all downhill for your great leader. The Republicans are jumping off the USS Bush as fast as possible and swimming for their lives. Almost restores my confidence back again in the Republican party. Almost.

Bullshit Zeit and you know it... You're probably one of those Reagan weenies that believe Regan was the sole reason for the cold war coming to an end. The world laughs at your ridiculous ass.

BTW Dubai's national economy is operating at a surplus even though their expendatures increased by 30%. Must be because they aren't involved in the war on terror against the axis of evil in their own region of the world. Hmmmmmmm funny thing... our economy is functioning at deficit...

ah well, I have no love for the UAE....But I have recently watched a show 'Mega Structures' about how Dubai is building giant cities out in the sea......I would love to go and visit Dubai someday.....It looks like a very cool place....

CC-
You think they'll actually have a vote? (I would love to see it)

Zeit-
That's cause at heart you're really just a whore.

I thought I was the sole reason for the wall coming down.....On the 9th of November, 1989, I and my whole battery were in Berlin to see the wall come down.....I still tear up thinking about that day as teh Scorpions played on loudspeakers and everyone was going nuts huggin US soliders........

That New Years, my dad came up from Sicily and we spent it in Berlin, east and west.......what a wild crazy week of fun....


I still have my peice of the Berlin wall

But you know the best memory of that trip with my dad, was scoring some hash in Berlin on New Years eve...(my dad crashed at the motel) and going back and getting stoned and watching Florida State and Notre Dame play for the national championship at 4 in the am.....

Well whatever. I think it would sure be nice if 160,000 troops from the surrounding Islamic countries would show up in support in "stabilizing the region" rather than as clandestined whack jobs whose intention is to blow our over extended soldiers to bits. It is their region.

This is a very strange place. I guess I like it.

The Scorpions? You just had to ruin it, didn't you? Here I was, almost feeling the sense of the day...

Well, anyway, your dad sounds cool. Hell, you almost sound OK sometimes. Fuckwad.

"It is their region."

Yeah. But it hasn't been for some time, and they hate our(France, UK, US, USSR, Russia,etc.) pulsing guts on a generational level. But they have oil.

Dude, the 'Winds of Change'....the Scorps had recorded that summer in 1989....It was about the wall coming down and reunification......

Come one you know that song........


THE SCORPS, MAN!!

I always pegged you as a scorpion fan, rex. : )

But of course.......


Not that I listen to them anymore.....at least, not a regular basis.....I have moved on.....

BOYD

CC-
You think they'll actually have a vote? (I would love to see it)


I heard it on today's Lou Dobbs Show. There was a group of four talking at the end of the show and that's what they said was going to take place.

I heard somewhere else that it was possible that DP World would "put together" a company run separately by Americans and then have that company take over the ports. I don't trust Bush or the UAE to let this deal go and I don't think Congress does either. I think Congress (and most Americans) feel that Bush and DP World are going to find a way to set up some sham front company and call it a "U.S. entity" so Congress wants a vote to make sure that DP World (and the UAE) can have absolutely no part of it -- no economic interests, no "subsidiary" -- nothing at all.

Pathetic when no one on either side of the aisle can trust their own President, but Bush lies so much about everything no one takes him at his word anymore.

Zeit

That must have been really neat getting to see the Berlin wall come down. Really history in the making.

Im jealous as hell of him having a piece of that wall.

CC-
Let me know how it turns out. Votes embarassing to the WH and/or GOP have ways of not happening.

Boyd

Okay. If I hear beforehand when the actual voting will be held I'll find you on here and let you know. Otherwise I'm sure we'll hear about it afterwards.

about noon today rush said that libs would say what you just did--BL2

If Rush stumbled upon that idea, he got it from us. We laid blame for Islamophobia at Bush's doorstep at least a month ago on the DR.

How can you waste your time listening to that drugged-out windbag liar Rush who bloviates about "the American way"? Says a lot about how you treat your head.

'Mr. Nut' is what he eats....Don't let him breath [sic] on you--ZG.

"where were you when the friggin chinease commies bout the terminals on the west coast?

LOL

You're obviously an advocate of racial profiling.

Bush's Dubai buddies keep Indian indentured servants working for $150/month until there bodies are worn out, then they ship them back to India having charged them $149/month for food and rent. When you have as much cash as Dubai, it isn't easy to find investments. Its hard and Bush has tremendous sympathy for their plight.

Since we now know Bush was very involved in killing this deal,in yet another flip flop, doesn't that make him a racist? And a hypocrite? Where are all the Bushies chanting that Bush sticks to his guns, regardless of the polls?

Bush: you misunderestimate him whenever you think he's reached the epitome of stupidity.
Same goes for his supporters.


The third posting down from the top--Zatoichi--hit the nail on the head.

Bush People will make money on the deal no matter what.

For The People By The People
Time to take America back

Don't shop Wal-Mart-Target!!!

Buy from Ma and Pa shops when ever possible. I have had lots of luck having them match price. And if you looked into what ever you buy from the "Big Box" stores you will find you aren't saving much if anything at all.They have a few lost leader to get you into the stores and then fuck you on everything else you buy. China is getting rich off of America as the common American goes father and father in debt.

"Zatoichi--hit the nail on the head."

About Noory for sure.

Hello,

Firstly, let me say that I am Conservative and I am 1000% against the Port Deal with UAE's DPW. So, I don't agree with President Bush on all ocasions, but this doesn't make me turn against him on all the good things that he has done and is trying to do.

Now to my point: On one hand, Americans don't want to live in a dictatorship; and on the other hand we want a leader that can make decisions. So, we don't want President Bush makes all decisions where they are final, do we? Well, fortunately, that is not the case; but we fail to hear it pointed out that just maybe Democracy is working exactly as it should be, right now. Let me explain my theory a little better.

We have a president that unlike any other President in US History engages his constituency along with the constituency (the Left) of his opposition. In the past, Presidents have lead their party and when possible convinced the other party to go along with him on a particular issue through Congress. But President George Bush, albeit under the most complicated global struggle ever - i.e. who is your enemy, Islam or Terrorists? ...and who is opportunistically playing politics? - has been able to get a sizable amount of Americans to become active with his decisions, in one way or another, which makes us all feel more involved. And we are much more involved! He has managed to get all of our brains working on this issue and not make it seem like he is pushing us to get involved, we want to be involved. We don't dare to take our eye off the ball for a second, and this awareness is making America strong, for our unity and the unity (SOLIDARITY) of all of Christendom (believers and non-believers alike) is what is going to give us the vision and impetus and longevity of purpose to succeed at creating the ideal habitat/environment for Islam to either, cease to exist or transform to a truly peaceful group that polices itself and gives up the criminals that hide within it and behind its skirt.

So, while the Circle-Bush-Bashers work themselves up to a lather, they should remember that in some way their brain is in this already but it remains to be seen just how much help they can be in the long run. Everyones needs to be in the game, for the Bell has tolled.

Kind regards,
Lillie Whiteblossom

OK Lillie, let's come back from the ramble throught the fragrant imaginary springlike meadow to reality. Despite Bush's rhetoric, he is not trying to engage the opposition. The administration is constantly doing end-runs around it.

How can you waste your time listening to that drugged-out windbag liar Rush who bloviates about "the American way"? Says a lot about how you treat your head.

for the same reason I listen to the liberal wackos at npr and the ny times....to be informed......and you played it just right...on another thread I talked about the state senator who has gone into rehab and everyone is going....oh....he is so brave to talk about it.......and if he were a republican or delay or rush, he would be forever branded.....just as you continue the lame liberal chararacterization.....

nonsense.....

LOL

You're obviously an advocate of racial profiling.

It will probably not make much difference who owns the operations of our ports because we still ... after 3.5 yrs, do not have a handle on the most complex problem we face in protecting the U.S. mainland from assemetric warfare...

"The $75 million, three-year study by the Homeland Security Department included inspections at a New Jersey cargo terminal involved in the dispute over a Dubai company's now-abandoned bid to take over significant operations at six major U.S. ports.

"The previously undisclosed results from the study found that cargo containers can be opened secretly during shipment to add or remove items without alerting U.S. authorities, according to government documents marked "sensitive security information" and obtained by The Associated Press.

The study found serious lapses by private companies at foreign and American ports, aboard ships, and on trucks and trains "that would enable unmanifested materials or weapons of mass destruction to be introduced into the supply chain."

But hey .... we have spent over 250billion to make the ME "safe" for democracy...



You should all read the above report... its SUPPOSED to be released in the fall...

Yeah that will happen...This report will not see the light of day unless the republicans loose control of both houses in mid term elections...

Maybe someone can help me understand.

If we complain about high taxes, High prices on food etc,
Then the republican Gov .. then sells off our industry or somthing hurting our people....
then if we agree to higher taxes they tax the hell out of us...
It seems to me that we get punished for not agreeing to higher taxes...
First the easy work was replaced by imported workers..
Becuse we complained about high produce etc. no one cared.
now we complained about high housing costs etc....
now the imported workers are taking all of the construction contractor jobs!

soon we will all be broke and have high taxes and hungry. and no work.
