And to bring their "homeland" to our neighborhoods, pushing us out to ...where? It is a strange attitude isn't it? When a foreign culture and people colonize areas of our country and we and our heritage are forced out, why isn't it refered to as "ethnic cleansing"? That's exactly what it is. Some whine about the native American being pushed off his lands hundreds of years ago, but have no problem with the same thing happening to middle class Americans today. Amazing.
Yes, and not only for American
More and more people here in Europe are felling just as much nauseous
Amen! We have a stake in this country!
No explanation should be needed, but now we have to explain to other FReepers??!!!
I never thought I'd see the day ...
It appears the "free trade at expense of country" wing of the RNC sends one delegate after another to these threads, sort of like a relay race. But they all get beaten.
Of course, I could be wrong. Dominic hasn't answered yet in regard to nationality or allegiance.
I have been sensing a growing backlash against free trade for several years. It is building.
So at this point in time, you agree that the evidence shows that the UAE are our trustworthy allies.
Yet on no evidence what-so-ever, you have declared them a threat to the US. Ignoring the evidence at hand?
Not in the final analysis, no. In fact, the only thing the Coast Guard said at all was it didn't *have* any evidence one way or another.
Do you agree that there is evidence to suggest that the UAE is currentl a stead-fast ally?
No, the MSM was the first. They started this by declaring headlines, "Bush To Sell US Ports To Arabs", a direct lie which most of the public (and ya'll) bought hook, line and sinker. Which got the public up in arms, which caused the congressmen to rush to propose legislation to pander to the ill-informed public.
This is the standard Liberal/D game plan. And you fell for it, and helped them.
You ask for "evidence" and yet you refuse to read the Exon Florio provision, therefore you continue to repeat the same erroneous assertions.
You haven't answered my question: Are you an American?
I helped America. And you do not.
Born in Chicago (Cook County hosptial, actually). Live in Austin, Texas, currently (Go Horns!).
And I did read the provision in question, and I already discussed it in depth with you, and pointed out clearly where you were wrong -- there was never once any evidence raised that would have triggered the investigation.
And then, the Congress PROVED it wasn't about the law or the investigation when they moved to kill the deal *without finishing the investigation*.
Again, there is evidence that the UAE is an ally. There is no evidence they are an enemy.
So your side just pulled the same trick we've always criticized the Ds for.
You made a policy decision based on fear and emotion, against all the evidence.
You "helped" America ignore the evidence and make an emotional decision that went against the evidence.
Congratulations.
No Islamic country has that level of trust. And will not have it until they become democracies. and then after a while to make sur ethey hold.
It is you who is being emotional here. You and the free traitor wing of the republican party. America won. Deal with it.
That is a bald face lie. Why are you trying to cover this up?
I make my choice based on evidence, you make your choice against the evidence.
When presented with the fact that DHS and USCG raised objections based upon national security concerns, you cover your eyes, denying it happened. What do you call that?
My choice was based on the same evidence as yours. I looked at it and decide it was not worth the risk.
Then post the evidence that suggests that the UAE is currently a threat to US port security. You have not yet done so.
You can win this debate quickly. Just post one single bit of evidence that suggests the UAE is not currently a trustworthy ally of the US.
