OK...Again, what companies do you suggest could do the job. I'm assuming that they only hire Americans...BUT do they all hire "only Americans" ??? Are you sure the Airport Security companies hire "only Americans"??? I'd like to believe that, but I'm not at all convinced of that. Shipping ports are the MOST important, IMO. We live in one of them...and as you know, the whole West Coast is vulnerable. During the Clinton Adm, didn't they lease the Long Beach port to the Chinese? house.gov And what about Panama??? Who owns it now? Was that under Carter's Administration? orwelltoday.com You can make the suggestion that "if you are not on the side of Bush, then you are on the side of Pelosi" if you wish. I DID NOT say that. Please review that post. I said: >>>>> BUT on the other hand, I keep looking for alternatives from those who oppose whatever it is, and find none. Only platitudes, and garbage (i.e. Pelosi, Dean, Gore, Kennedy, Boxer, Byrd, Durbin, etc) You obviously have gone to the other side. OK. The choices there are pretty unpalatable, and even more so, by in large, than the present. But whatever. Find some alternatives. The British company is gone. Where are your alternatives? <<<<< As far as Dale's thread, his is a very partisan place. And becoming more so daily. I didn't think so at first, but finally did realize that. As far as getting bumped, it says something to me that he 'bumped' both Nadine and I, and didn't bother telling us privately first. That was quite rude, but then again, certainly says something about him. I wear the D-bump as a badge of honor. We do agree on one thing. .... It IS about America!
