The 6 Port Takeover

An Arab company will be taking over operations at six major U.S. ports.

Whatever the arguments are on both sides of the issue, let's just keep it simple.
Why in the world would the Bush administration take even the slightest risk when it comes to terrorism? This kind of goes hand and hand with the border issue.

The Bush administration and the Republican party want to confuse you.
Aren't they all about terrorism? Don't they keep National Security front and center?
Isn't that going to be Carl Rove's theme in the 06 elections and maybe even in 08 as well?

It's a smoke screen. Republicans are all about money. Money trumps everything. Selling the ports is needed for global trade they say. Wait, we are in a war on terror. Same thing with the borders, the Bush administration knows America is fed up with the millions of illegal's flooding over the border every year. Unsecure borders can't be good for National Security.

Again it's a money thing. Providing cheap labor trumps National Security.

How can anyone even vote for a party that says one thing and does another?
