Using childish name calling does not help you convince me about you point! The only thing I have seen is you like to call names but cannot carry on a intellectual debate.momof2inPA said:I have never listened to Air America, but I remember Rush from way back in his early days. It's obvious he has listeners, but I can't understand why so many of them behave like mindless zombies. How can 40, 50, 60 year olds be so easily swayed to follow another's every opinion? It is a joke, anymore. Like Dr. Laura, many of his listeners seem to tune in just for the train-wreck affect, not because he is the intellectual giant that a his loyal dunce-heads would hope.

During My Divine Dabbles In The Stewing Pot Of Life I Had The Pleasure Of Meeeting Rush Limbaugh At A Barbie Convention Whilst I Chatted Up A Woman Who May Or May Not Have Beeen Related To Him.
I Guarantee It.
jfulcer said:The Coast Guard themselves is saying that the concern quoted repeatedly has been taken out of context of the entire review - of which at the end they had no problem with the deal.
So it's ok for a UK company to handle it and there's no problems at all but you have resevervations when it's a UAE company that's doing it? At my office, we have two sets of people - ones that handle operations, and ones that handle security. Do you know what trumps anything, everytime, without a doubt? Security. The two ARE mutually exclusive, especially considering the size of the operations....
jfulcer said:Why does who sees the paperwork matter? They sort of need to do that to manage the port don't they? The perfect world is only US companies run the ports? why was the UK OK then? And let's not stop there. No foreign companies should run any companies in the US! And we should close the borders! And expel all those foreigners! It's a slippery slope you stand on my trying to 'limit' in one area based on race/origin.
Whew! Ok, I'm done!
jfulcer said:How is that any different than our dealing in Japan. How many American companies own parts of Japanese companies? I think very few - for the same reason we don't own in UAE.

DawnCt1 said:I am so sorry to disappoint you, but I certainly don't consider myself a 'mindless zombie'. Rather than surmising that all of these listeners are so easily swayed by Rush's opinion, did you ever consider, even for a moment that he is reflecting the opinions of his listeners....rather than the other way around.
Charade said:Boy, for someone who doesn't listen to him you sure do have an strong negative opinion of him and his listeners.
How's that possible?

Why isn't it possible they have a well thought, in their opinion, perspective and that it simply differs from the conclusion you have come to?
lyeag said:Because paperwork can easily be changed to misrepresent what is in those containers. Point of origin and contents can be changed. The papertrail of a container could easily be altered making it harder to track if it is discovered to have dangerous material. We need to inspect far more containers and be sure of where each came from.

And your example in my above post is?
Is this tit for tat?
Can your dad beat my dad up? This seems to be the level at which you want to debate...

From my post #17 "Sorry I am a free thinker and nothing that you, Rush or anybody else says will make me change my mind on a issue that I have researched. I like to make up my own mind." answered your title " Has Rush Limbaugh Changed Your Mind About UAE Running Our Ports". No name calling or childish comments just my point of view on the thread. Did you really read my post are is this just your forum to post your position and only those who call others names are allowed to participate.momof2inPA said:I'm not sure what you have added to the debate???
