I just have to say...I'm so let down by Bush. What the hell is going on with this port deal?!! I cannot believe what he is doing. What a total insult to the victims of 9-11! What a slap in the face to the American people. Is this PC gone mad? Is this ass kissing in the highest form?
Shouldn't U.S. ports be run by......oh I don't know...maybe AMERICANS??! They are our ports for God's sake! And he has the NERVE to tell congress he will veto any bill blocking this decision!! What about what the rest of us want?!! Clearly the average Joe like me has zero voice anymore. No politican really gives a shit about the rest of us. UGH, makes me so angry I don't even have the words to describe how totally flabbergasted I am by this port deal.
Now that I live in the birthplace of our country, I have been wondering these past few days what our Founding Fathers would think if they could come back and see how their country has turned out. I am sure they are turning over in their graves. All the sacrifice and hard work, and what do we do..... sell ourselves out and give up our freedoms.
Here is commentary by Joseph Farah of WND that worth reading

Don't listen to that guy. You have your own opinion, and you can share them.
One of the things that I find odd/scary is that this debate only became big news one week before it is supposed to go down. Ya can't tell me that no one knew what was happening.
You also have to remember, Bush sells to the highest bidder. He also doesn't like people telling him what to do. (i.e. the fact that no one supported the war in Iraq and he went anyway, and also that he wasn't willing to go through proper channels for wire taps.
Bush thinks that he is the ultimate say in the country, and that "checks and balances" is just a funny term they used in the old days.
Sorry for the rant. Keep yours coming.
So MaryLyn, This is your cousin Steve. I'm surprised that you were caught unawares by the administrations actions about the ports. This is totally consistent with their behavior in virtually every aspect of their time. The only value they have consistently lived by is big business. It's who benefits from the tax breaks, it's the group that benefits from the war, it's the group that has benefited from it's economic policies.
