Do you support the Ports deal that Bush forces on the People of the U.S.?   Why?

Wake up. His Bushyness does not care in the least what the American people think or say. According to Neocons who support  his Bushyness, he's smarter than anyone in Congress. After all he went to Yale, he must be smart, right. What i want to know is how much is Bu$h Sr. involved in this $6.8 billion deal. \nIf Money is involved the Neocons will find a way to steal it from the tax payers. We still don't know what Paul Bremmer did with the $6 billion that went missing in Iraq.\nThe truth will always find them out.

Why do you support him?  Some poeple support him because they think that if they don't, the terrorists will come and kill their family. It doesn't help that Bush and Cheney have actually SAID that.  I would have to know why you do support him in order to answer that question.

It's not that Bush hasn't signed it, but that it hasn't been ratified by Congress. The US signed the protocol when Clinton was in office, but Congress did not ratify it and Bush has refused to even submit it for ratification.\n\nHis rhetoric bull is that it would hurt the American economy. What it boils down to, the industrial sector doesn't want to do it, and they paid for his election.

Yes..you hit the nail right on the head..I can tell you from an "outside" perspective that is exactly what the world sees..it is a shame that trusted governments can hurt their own people so much..Freedoms are being lost daily in the USA..Bush has been a very destructive man..not just to the U.S. but the suffering he has caused throughout the world is appalling. I hope the American people can stop it before it is too late...The blind and shallow-minded will disagree.

I was inclined to support the action, because the president and a large majority of each house of congress did:\n\nhttp://hnn.us/articles/1282.html

It's the 'hot button' issue of the day.  The media dictates what is talked about, and that is influenced by the government.  Right now, Bush needs something to take peoples' attention away from Iraq, Iran, and the rising cost of gas.  Enter the immigration issue.

I do.  It's all part of NAFTA.  They have big plans for 4 football-fields-wide  type highways from Mexico to Canada.  I understand a Spanish company got the contract.  It's all part of the plan to eliminate the middle class in America called class warfare and part of the New World Order.\n\nWhat Ethan said.

I support Bush except for his Immigration ideas.  I also do not support the Senate Immigration Bill.  The people do not want this immigration enforced.  All the illegals are here for is a job and not to become citizens.  Because of this, they are driving the wages down in the U.S..  Congress needs to put this Immigration Bill to a vote on a National level.  Let the citizens decide if the illegals stay or go home.  I have a feeling that the people would vote for the illegals to leave and submit the proper documents to come here legally.  That is why we have laws and our Congress should obey them as well as every citizen who lives in the U.S.

I was in the Navy and I definately agree with you. I dont support any part of that war. We're over there trying to help a bunch of people that can't help themselves and they dont want our help. They aren't even our alis and there we are butting into their war. Telling them how to run their country. You dont see people coming over into our country and trying to fix our problems. We just have a stupid president and if anyone thinks that makes me unamerican, so be it. I know what I am and this is a free country w freedom of speech. I dont have to like everything about it.

(raises hand)\nI support our troops, but not the war. It's not a war. I think we're just terrorizing another nation into doing what we want them to do. I don't watch the news anymore. I hate seeing that we're killing so many innocents and being killed because they want to live their own way. I really don't like bush. He handled this thing really badly. It would have been one thing to go into Iraq to get the person responsible for 9/11. But it's a completely different thing to go into their country, destroy their cities, kill and imprison civillians for no reason, and stay there until they meet our demands. I would not be suprised if they attacked us again cause we're asking for it.

Ok..here it is broken down. THose east coast ports were being managed via contract through an English company. That company was bought out by a larger company in the United Arab Emerates. A lot of people feel that our national security is at risk if the UAE company assumes the port operations contract previously honored by the now bought out English port company. White House tried to pull a fast one and didn't tell Congress about it initially until it was almost a done deal. There you go.

Personally, I think it is a poor decision.  However, whether we agree or not, here is some logic to it.  The company is only getting a contract to manage these ports.  Even the hiring is primarily controlled by the unions and the security is controlled by the United States Government.  This company also has heavy experience in this and has demonstrated friendship with the United States.\n\nAs individuals we may not agree that this is a good decision, but cursing President Bush and defining him with expletives does little to change the situation.  If anyone disagrees, look into it and develop some facts that support your suggestions to change it.    Contact your Congressional Representatives and make your point of view known.  Develop lobbying groups in your community and have them all work together to change this situation.\n\nWithout such an effort the current situation will prevail.

Well, since not many answered I will. First I did not vote for Bush and I do not support the man as the economy is weak and unstable. People are having to struggle on credit cards and sell personal belongings just to buy gas to go to a lousy Walmart job that pays crap and most Americans don't even have health care. Now on top of it the rich Doctors are starting to refuse to take Medicare and Medicaid from people. This is sick when a Doctor looks at it as it's not worth the small amt of money he gets from this and then drives around in a Jaguar. I love Mother Earth and we must start to protect and clean up the Earth and stop the Greed for wealth or our children will not have a future.

Fisrt of all this is not "our" war, it is an invasion of Bush. I doubt if anyone would support it noneless an entire population!!

Disapprove.  I feel that he misled us into a war that we can't possibly win (by lying to get us there in the first place).  I feel that not reversing the big tax cuts to oil companies proves corruption and we are paying for it.  I feel that spying on people without judicial approval is a violation of the rights of citizens.  But most of all, I don't feel safe anymore.  I feel that he and his administration are only exacerbating the hatred of terrorists towards America.

No one is selling our ports.  This is merely about a contract with a port operations company to continue with day to day port operations.  Security will continue to done by U.S. officials.
