How do neocons justify turning over ports to UAE?

Well Neocons? Your president has said he's going to ignore congress
and the public outcry. What say you now?


*Bush: Arab Co. Port Deal Should Proceed
WASHINGTON (AP) -- President Bush said Tuesday that a deal
allowing an Arab company to take over six major U.S. seaports
should go forward and that he would veto any congressional effort
to stop it. The Senate's Republican leader had promised just such
an effort a few hours earlier.


What will it take for you to say "enough"?


--
HOMELAND SECURITY -- ARAB EMIRATES WOULD CONTROL MOVEMENT OF MILITARY
EQUIPMENT ON BEHALF OF U.S. ARMY: There is bipartisan concern about
the Bush administration's decision to outsource the operation of six
of the nation's largest ports to a company controlled by the United
Arab Emirates (UAE) because of that nation’s troubling ties to
international terrorism. The sale of P&O to Dubai World Ports would
give the state-owned company control over "the ports of New York, New
Jersey, Baltimore, New Orleans, Miami and Philadelphia." The UAE was
one of three countries to recognize the Taliban as the legitimate
government of Afghanistan, was "a key transfer point for illegal
shipments of nuclear components to Iran, North Korea and Libya," and
money was transferred to the 9/11 hijackers through its banking
system. A major part of the story, however, has been mostly
overlooked. The company, Dubai Ports World, would also control the
movement of military equipment on behalf of the U.S. Army through two
other ports. According to the British paper Lloyd's List, "[P&O] has
just renewed a contract with the United States Surface Deployment and
Distribution Command to provide stevedoring [loading and unloading] of
military equipment at the Texan ports of Beaumont and Corpus Christi
through 2010." According to the journal Army Logistician, “Almost 40
percent of the Army cargo deployed in support of Operation Iraqi
Freedom flows through these two ports.”

If the 9/11 attack was naval then we would be discussing the sale of six
airports.
catch my drift?

President Bush has balls the size of Texas.

I predict he will get his way.

Don't say Neocons (Which I'm NOT, either...look up the definition...)

Not a good move. At all. More reason to back away rapidly from the Bush
administration.

But, the ports are currently in the hands of the BRITISH (which is better
than the UAE, I guess).

The ports SHOULD be in American hands!

Yet another thing that does not endear my President to me...

They are too stupid and hypocritical. Just like Bush-league, they
can't admit a mistake, even in the face of overwhelming evidence.

It is a brilliant idea by GWB. Since he cannot find Bin Laden in the mid
east, he is going to give him an opportunity to enter the US.

Putting aside the rhetoric for right now, what possible benefit is
there to the US to allow a country that has been the port for all sorts
of WMDs to pass through it manage our ports? The President's main
constitutional duty is to protect the Constitution and its people and
enforce its laws. With friends like the UAE who needs enemies?

I have not yet seen a credible reason why this deal is so important to
the Administration. If this thing gets pushed through then the
President is bound to lose many supporters, myself included.

He doesn't care if he loses his cheering section. It's his last term.

Your favorite ex-president Jimmie Carter thinks it's a good idea.

"Welcome to President Clinton, Mrs. Clinton, and my fellow astronauts."

Al Gore

He is no one's favorite president but at least he was honest. Maybe too
honest. In any case this is what he said:

"CARTER: Well, I've been to Dubai, and I've seen the remarkable port
facilities they have there, perhaps the best in the world. I'm not knocking
the ones in the United States, of course.

My presumption is and my belief is that the president and his secretary of
state, the Defense Department and others have adequately cleared the Dubai
government or organization to manage their ports. I don't think there's any
particular threat to our security.

However, obviously, the homeland security would have to be involved directly
with and under partnership with the Dubai people, as they cleared folks to
work in the ports to protect the barrier. So the overall threat to the
United States and security I don't think it's exists. I am sure the
president has done a good job with his subordinates to make sure this is not
a threat"


I will not be voting for Carter next time around. He is assuming Bush and
homeland security is competent which is obviously untrue.

I assume you will not be quoting Carter or holding him up as an example
