I don't think the importance of the above document, in the context of the Administration's rapid, behind-closed-doors approval of the UAE ports deal, can be exaggerated.
Repeatedly, during the five-year tenure of the Bush administration, the White House has veered sharply away from (even tried to hide) evidence that the country is at risk. It has done so even as it issues color alerts, invades irrelevant Iraq, builds a thin, tottering walls of "security" at DHS, denies early knowledge that Al Qaeda had us in its close focus or that the levees are being breached.
So the fact that a key document was ignored tells us yet again that there is a strong pattern of deliberately constructed security risks attributable to Bush administration policy makers and the President himself. Me? I think treason is at the center of this carefully wrapped gift to the American people of ever-increasing threat. I think we know what the Administration's intentions are, even if we still just whisper and speculate.
From an exhausted, over-stretched US military to a crippled FEMA and a sidelined FISA court, surely the country's freedom and security have been seriously and deliberately compromised.
