Ok, everyone. Here is a clue for you.

Neither Congress, nor State and Local Governments have the standing to stop this sale between two foreign countries. The only person who can stop this sale sits in the White House.

I think you will find the Supreme Court looking poorly upon any legislation which suggests that foreigners from a country largely made up of white-skinned people can make deals in the U.S., where those of brown-skin cannot.

This deal is done.

All that is left is the shouting and lawsuits.

I do not fear brown-skins; I fear those wearing turbins and toting Korans!

I believe our congress and our courts have an obligation to restrict billion dollar deals (millions more in bribes) that may jeopardize our national security.

Currently we are at war with the nation of islam's extremists aka the war on terror. To date, walking down the street amongst them we can't determine one from the other and it has absolutely nothing to do with skin color.

The one thing I do know is that we best limit their access to our strategic ports of entry until the war with SOME muslims is over.

Technically speaking, you're probably correct about this. However, I suggested yesterday that the governors of those states where the six P&O-operated ports are located could probably do a lot of damage to the deal simply by suggesting that they will make every attempt to terminate P&O's existing contracts upon completion of the sale to the UAE-owned company.

Neither Congress, nor State and Local Governments have the standing to stop this sale between two foreign countries. True. But Congress CAN review the contract, and void it if necessary.

I think you will find the Supreme Court looking poorly upon any legislation which suggests that foreigners from a country largely made up of white-skinned people can make deals in the U.S., where those of brown-skin cannot. This deal is done. BS. Commerce issues are decided on merit. We are not required to honor contracts with hostile nations. Reasonable people are requesting open scrutiny. Unless you believe that the Republican majority leader is unreasonable, and that Jimmy Carter is intellectually superior in all things foreign relations.
