Your e-mails: Raw deal over U.S. ports?
Tuesday, February 21, 2006; Posted: 5:25 p.m. EST (22:25 GMT)

(CNN) -- A proposed business deal that would turn control of six U.S. ports over to an United Arab Emirates-based company has raised security concerns among some lawmakers. CNN's Jack Cafferty asked viewers of the "Situation Room" what they thought. Here is a selection of their responses, sent in by e-mail:

Ask the families of our war dead if they think we should hand over security of our ports to a foreign government. The very idea of it is obscene. And Mr. Chertoff, our brave troops aren't making those sacrifices to protect "robust trade." You shouldn't be in charge of a neighborhood watch if you believe half of what you say.
James, Fayetteville, North Carolina

You got it wrong, Jack. The #1 priority of the Bush regime since 9/11 has been to promote the illusion of safety. The hypocrisy is so transparent even Bush's puppets are finally seeing the treasonous sellout of our country for the crime it is.

1. Good to see from folks from NC feel the same way as me:
" I used to think President Bush should be impeached. I think now, he needs to be committed! There is no end in sight to the insanity of this administration.
Evelyn, North Carolina"
