Umm nope. Sorry Brit but maybe you should do some research instead of just reading the Democrat Senate Committees Press release. Whole problem is the Junk Journalists have not even bothered to find out one actual fact. All they have done is taken Chucky Schumer's Press release and reported it as fact. Maybe some REAL journalists should be saying "Hmm, Chucky says this, the Admin says this, they both cannot be correct" I guess considering how frequently and easy the Democrats lie these days, a real journalist would be HIGHLY suspicious of a story the Democrat Senate Election committee is pushing.

Kerik of New York says its safe. Condi Rice says it's safe. And quite possibly it will be. But appearances mean a lot and frankly it just does not LOOK safe to have UAE controlling an area where we have been told we are weak. A bomb or something transported through a shipping container.Mr President. Somebody else needs this contract, not a UAE company.

I agree with Brit and Lindsey. This port deal must be stopped.

On Friday, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice defended the Dubai deal, telling a Mideast news outlet: "There was a thorough review. It was decided that this could be done and done safely." Even so, why take the political hit -- an obvious loser -- and the potential security hit, which could lead to a HUGE political loss?
Does Halliburton lack the expertise to run ports?

Anyone bother to notice there are NO actually facts reported about this Company? Notice the whole story is based on guilty by association and rumor? So you have a smear job press release from the Dems vrs what the Security Agencies say "It's ok". Funny how "Conservatives" are falling all over themselves to push Chucky Schumer's Propaganda line.

I bet not, but this a grand opportunity for the RATS to shoot each other in the foot.

Plenty of Peoples Liberation Army front companies have just the experience needed - and the political hit will be a lot smaller. ;)

Maybe you need some new kneepads. Your incessant defense of anything Bush is just sickening.

The Arabs are the on-record owners, but the management for Arab outfits are the Brits. Arabs attend the meetings and sign the paperwork, but the Brits pull the strings. Not Brit politicos - Brit businessmen & managers.

Maybe a contact on the UAE company if it shows terrorist ties..

So Johnie, why don't you tell us the whole true story instead of knocking Brit with no explanation of how and why he is wrong.

Brit Hume:It doesn't sound good to let some Arab shieks to be in charge of our ports - that's what it comes down to.
There you have it. Brit says that it doesn't "sound" good.
To: MNJohnnie
And what will you say when the President does reverse this decision?
The pressure is mounting and he will make the right call.

Does Halliburton lack the expertise to run ports? My thoughts exactly! Someone has to run these ports... It would be priceless if they got the contract.
