this is INSANE

i'm at a loss for words here. our bushwhacked administration has NO problems or issues with illegally SPYING on americans under the guise they MAY be terrorists (like those savage quakers or peace activists or catholic workers, you know the type) YET THEY HAVE NO QUALMS ABOUT ALLOWING A COUNTRY WITH KNOWN TERRORIST TIES TO RUN SIX UNITED STATES PORTS? WHAT THE F**K IS WRONG WITH THIS PICTURE (money money money.....................gotta have it..........almighty dollar). where is the public outcry on this? if every single citizen doesn't have second thoughts about THIS deal, well then something is more wrong than even i suspected

Lawmakers urges White House to review Arab port takeover
Critics contend deal could affect national security
WASHINGTON (AP) -- U.S. lawmakers formally asked the Bush administration Thursday to reconsider its approval of a sale giving a company in the United Arab Emirates control over significant operations at six major American ports.
The lawmakers, including four senators and three House members, sharply criticized the UAE as inconsistent in its support of U.S. anti-terrorism efforts.
They also said the country was a key transfer point for shipments of nuclear components sent to Iran, North Korea and Libya and was one of only three nations that had recognized the Taliban as Afghanistan's legitimate government.
"Outsourcing the operations of our largest ports to a country with a dubious record on terrorism is a homeland security and commerce accident waiting to happen," said Sen. Charles Schumer, D-New York. "The administration needs to take another look at this deal."
The Bush administration defended its approval of the sale. A spokesman for the White House National Security Council, Frederick Jones, said Thursday that security implications of the deal were "rigorously reviewed.".........
