That's a good one. I'm the one dissenting from the party line here, but I'm the one who disagrees with honest criticism?
Gawd, concepts on FR are getting twisted worse than Mr. Bill lately.
dirtboy: I dissent from the party line, too. But you have been getting over excited about a not so important issue.
Here is where I dissent from the White House:
All: Tonight Mark Levin had an extremely important interview with Rep. Peter King about Arabs controlling six of our ports.

Members of the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey's board of commissioners will meet next Wednesday to discuss the proposed deal that would grant control of significant operations at one of their ports to a company owned by the Dubai government in the United Arab Emirates, a country with ties to terrorism.

Yesterday, the chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee, Rep. Peter King urged the Bush administration to reconsider federal approval of deal for reasons of national security.
"The White House can stop this deal ultimately, and I've asked them to go very slow and look at it very carefully." Mr. King, a Republican of New York, told the Associated Press. "The thing to do is find out if any of our departments have security concerns."
The Associated Press quoted Mr. Foley yesterday as saying, "If our ports are the most vulnerable targets for terrorism and if we are at war, as the president says, we should be overly critical of handing over the management of our ports to any foreign countries, post 9/11."

Write, e-mail and call your reps.
==> Since the offices are now closed, I thought I would start the ball rolling, by leaving a message on my reps' answering machine. I said that the Arabs will be controlling security of six of our ports, including the Port of New Orleans, and I hope he will do everything in his power to reverse this.
(I admit it. I'm sneaking this in here, because it is soooo important for our national security.)
