We as a country are geniuses!!

So I wake up this morning to the front page of the Sun Sentinel saying that the United States are debating on whether or not we should allow an Arabian company to operate several of our ports.  WTF??  Are you kidding me, am I crazy or does that just sound like a BAD idea???

Currently a Brittish company runs major commercial operations out of cities like Baltimore, New York and Philadelphia, but Brittain is a close ally to the US. 

After Sept 11th don't you think we should be operating our own ports? It is widely known that our ports lack protection but when you add to that being operated by an Arabian counrtry, it will prove to be volatile to the US. 

 I think by allowing this to happen we are making it easier for persons of interest to do harm to our country, I dunno!!

Yeah Joe, a toe please preferably one that has a french manicure...those are my favorites. 

I am stoked that Miami and Ft. Lauderdale are two of the suggested ports!

Oh yes I almost forgot, Good ole Ricky failed a drug test and it wasn't for pot!!!  Hmmm I wonder what he's dabbling in now?

This was the first I heard of it, I guess because it is affecting South Florida so they decided they might want to report it.

Geez.  Whose brainchild was this?  As if I have to wonder for even a second.  Doh! (slaps forehead)  Could it be...hmm...shit for brains?  You are all correct, and so is Hilary.

You know, I looked into this a bit more. Seems a chairman for that Arab company just got nominated for a seat in the Maritime Dept. of the Dept. of Transportation. Ah-so...the plot thickens.

Bush is really adamant about getting these Arabs this job. This will lead to the following:

Another 9/11 style attack, which I'm sure Bush himself has drawn up and planned out with his Arab buddies. This will justify the war.

or

Low prices on gas in exchange for the harboring of illegal poppy, heroin, opium, terrorists, and child porn (because we all know that Saudi Arabians are a bunch of no good, dirty little fuckers.)

 

or

Bush gets more fucking money to retire on...maybe now he can afford enough soap to wash the blood off his hands.

Joe either way it goes down, this is a very bad move.  It is only going to be detrimental to our already lax borders!

Oh this was part of the article I read this morning, you know why does someone always gotta pull the race card!!

"Those who purport that ports can be run securely by a British company, but not by an Arab one, are engaging in racial profiling on the corporate level,"

Here's the full article if interested:

I would read it, but my brain would probably leap out of my head and buy a one way ticket to Mexico city.
