All right people, I'm desperate for an explanation of sorts. Would you
believe
that 3 seasons of the extremely crappy and annoying show Full House is
on dvd and yet, not one season of the brilliant and hilarious Get Smart
is on dvd? I think this mere fact makes America a worse country.
Something is wrong. Something is terribly wrong with this situation.By the way, did any of you catch my little ode to Get Smart in that
first paragraph by using a popular catch phrase from the legendary show?So, Bush has outsourced the guarding of our ports to a company from the
middle east? I guess in theory, they would be no more likely to be
terrorists than anybody else, but lets just stop and think about
something for a second. Fact is, a lot of terrorists that hate us and
want to blow us up are from the middle east. Good chance, the people
that will be protecting our ports are going to be from the middle east.
It doesn't take the writers of 24 to see that perhaps a terroist from
the middle east could infiltrate this company and get a job working our
ports, exposing us to who knows what. Now, I'm not one to prey on
scaring people into believing or thinking the way I believe, but
sometimes, you just have to use basic common sense. I firmly believe
that where I live, I'm extremely safe from a terrorist attack and I'm
way more likely to choke to death on an Oreo than die from a terrorist
attack. That being said, we can't leave ourselves vulnerable to more
attacks. Something is fishy here. Everybody, including the Department of
Homeland Security is against this deal. Most Republicans and all
Democrats are against this deal. The only people for it, are the Bush
Abomination. Why is this? Why is he so adamant on this? I read
somebody's opinion that it is a conspiracy to continue a war on Muslims
since Bush is, for the most part, a Christian extremist. Realistically,
that theory is crazy. However, honestly, would it surprise you if Bush
was involved in something like this? My thinking is that realistically,
its all about money, and somehow, Bush and his evil goons somehow stand
to profit from this deal in someway and that is why he is doing it.

Jersey Mike's is a sub place, not an underground mob ring.
Perhaps you've lived in Chicago too long.
Bush is an idiot.
i think you should be more upset that you know that the seasons of Full House exsist rather than the fact that they do....
the story - yes, it will end. i am not sure what we are building up to. stay tuned.
ryc ryc: yeah - best buy is kinda slow and shitty that way - i recommend Amazon...
Well I disagree with you. You shouldn't look at the whole deal as a potential security threat but as a part of globalization. The USA is pressuring Middle Eastern countries to be more businesslike and Western like, but when a Middle Eastern company does just that, the US gets alarmed. What kind of logic is that? Globalization for American companies - yes, globalization for Middle Eastern companies - red color. Besides, as far as I know the company in question, which is from UAE already has many branches around the world and has had no issues with security breaches so far, anyway. Besides, the security of the ports should be and still will be in the hands of the US Port Security or however they're called. So, you can't be only expansionist in the globalization process, but also a receiver. N.
