Dubai Set To Manage Six of Our Most Important Ports

A Recommendation for Homeland Security:

It looks like Dubai will be managing six of our most important ports.
Why?
Homeland Security sees nothing wrong with it!
President Bush and his cadre see nothing wrong with it.
Knowing how concerned they are for the safety and protection
of the United States, I could not imagine that they would have anything
but our best interests in mind in approving the agreement.
Naturally, if anything happened, they could always bring up
that old argument: Well, it could have happened to anyone.
And why get petty considering all of the money that we can
earn as a result of such a great deal!
It seems almost as good as selling Rockefeller Center to the
Japanese who couldn't even pronounce it. But of course, that
was before the Middle East had access to enriched nuclear materials
and enough Russian Scientists combined with Saudi money
could be found to make suitcase sized "dirty bombs" a reality.

So no discussion; no debate; it will just go forward.
But I would like to add a qualifier.
I would consider voting for the bill if the government would just
satisfy me on one point: They we arrange as one of the conditions for the deal that the United States, in turn, manage the ports of Iraq, Iran and Pakistan.
That should provide a little balance and discourage any funny
goings on!...
We could also issue a littlle veiled warning that if they screw around with
our assets, we will not bother with those little suitcase sized bombs
but literally dump on them our complete nuclear reserve which would
free us up from continuing to provide maintenance for them for the next
twenty years!--sort of like killing two birds with one stone!

What do you think?

Answers folks!....and all of you little lilly livered panzies who are offended
by this idea, you can squealch it!...and keep your opinions to yourself.
We're simply not interested!
