Arab-Americans contended on Tuesday that bias and bigotry, not security concerns, lay behind the uproar over a deal that would place commercial operations at six U.S. ports in the hands of an Arab company.

The whining Wahabbists should observe that PORT spelled backwards is TROP.

Bigots may have more in common with God than one might think. Legend has it that Rollo, the first duke of Normandy, refused to kiss the foot of the French king Charles III, uttering the phrase bi got, his borrowing of the assumed Old English equivalent of our expression by God.

That being said call me a bigot.

Call me a bigot also because I'm for racial friggin profiling all arab males between the ages of 18 and 40 and probably most arab women as well.
I'm for internment camps for muslims. And not just anywhere, oh no. Internment camps at the North friggin Pole, with cheesecloth to keep warm with and bread and water for nourishment. I'm for restricting every friggin visa from a middle eastern country and a lot of southeast asia. Let them get their education at a prestigious middle eastern university or perhaps remain ignorant. I could care less!

Bigotry you ask? Was 9/11 a hate crime or did those fun loving jihadis just want to say 'hey guys'? Al Gore and Bill Clinton say we're bigots, too? Well then, sign those SOBs up for an extra bread ration and cheesecloth and ship their asses north as well. The arabs will need some prison hos anyway. Who knows, maybe both of them will discover they were homosexual all along. I can think of a couple of people, including hillary, that it will make happy.

To continue....

"Hmmm...how novel. Maybe that would mean, that the profits stayed IN COUNTRY!!!!! WOW!!!!!."

So why hasn't this been in the news? I would like to know who competed for the contract. Maybe Halliburton will buy it. If that happened I would buy stock in Prozac.

It isn't bigotry, it is people getting informed by seeing the fruits of Islam throughout the world and realizing they are no friends of ours.

Maybe if the arabs had been more vocal in denouncing the September 11 killers, then the American people would be more "understanding".

"I want those who are questioning it to step up and explain why all of a sudden a Middle Eastern company is held to a different standard than a Great British company," Bush said.

It's got nothing to do with race. It's about their obnoxious belief system: officially recognizing the Taliban is just one example.

Neither can Christians. Last I checked, America was a Christian nation. Not a Jewish one. World of difference.
