Wanna Know How the Military Feels about the Port Deal?

Just a taste... Damn...

No southern Border control no Northern border control
Now this?
We better let our voices be heard.
Who do we contact? What do we do?

I just sent the senators for our states emails about this, as did several of my friends. I haven't seen people worked up about anything as much as this. This is insane, and there is NO excuse to see the ports to countries that might turn against us at any time. I don't even like the idea of any foreign country owning the ports....even the British.

We need to control our Country.

Tell ya what.
The President evidently thinks he is king George and he is full of it.

This is nothing less than madness, or treachery on purpose.


oooops.... Here's the link:

1. It's treason, IMO.

2. got a cite?
I'd like to see what else is on the site before I'd take any of this at any value.

course, they all seem like angry vets to me, just from this sampling. I wonder what they think of gays serving in uniform?

8. Nice Try

Looks like the military are really pissed. Which makes sense to me, since those who did serve that I have spoken to, felt the same way. Shucks... huh. It really bursts the Kooliad bubble or the GOP doesn't it?

4. That's not the DoD's leaderships point of view.
Just saw General Kimmett on CNN, he thinks it's a good idea.

It's good to know we have the military's support on ending the war. These men and women know the score.
