ON PORTS, AND SAVAGES

Whoa! One of my blog heroes, Mike at Cold Fury, actually agrees with me on something. Namely, that the whole port Dubai port controversy is a load of crap. At, least, I think that is what Mike is concurring with.

I'm just amazed anyone would actually go public with agreeing with me.

There is just so much more to this story. You hear ignorant shit.

No one understands how a damned port operates. Any port operator, which merely handles the loading/unloading of vessels, and the outgate procedures before/after the fact, has U.S. Customs and the Coast Guard and the Food and Drug Administration, and the Immigration and Naturalization Service, or whatever they are called today, so far up their ass you can hear their sphincters whistling not only Dixie but Old Folks at Home through their pyloric valve.

Our ports are safe, insofar as one can detect neutrons, or decaying isotopes. Iffen a Bad Scene goes down, the fact that Dubai Ports World was the operator will mean nothing. I had an FDA inspector find a Mediterrean Fruit Fly on a ship in 1984. Medfly. The fucking entire Federal Government showed up. I had two Polish seamen, back in the Communist days, jump ship and proclaim Amnesty! The entire Federal government showed up. And the Media, of course.

Lookit: the UAE is a global entity. They know they are going to be under intense, nay, insane, scrutiny. I believe these smaller, private terminals will be the safest in the country.

Let us lay off the Islamic bigotry. After all, I thought I cornered that market. See, vis-a-vis, the Islamofuckist bombing of that Gold Mosque in Iraq.

Does this post make sense? Not really. Sue me.
