Makes you wonder about American ports...

Apparently, UK ports aren't secure. Why is this important?

"Al-Qaeda has shown an interest in using the maritime system to launch attacks in the past, but the security at many of our ports remains, frankly, poor."

Anyone have information about what/if Bush has done anything for our ports?

[Update: For our ports, I found this article, which reads more like a press release because it doesn't have any criticism of the new measures to secure our ports. another article has ABC News reporters sneaking 15 pounds of depleted uranium onto a ship, something that should be detected by the same technology was is supposed to detect nuclear devices. But it wasn't detected. Our government's response? Sic the FBI on ABC News.]
