Senator Richard Shelby is also upset about this.
"In a letter to Treasury secretary John Snow, Senator Richard Shelby, an influential Alabama Republican, stopped short of calling for the deal to be blocked, but said the transaction merited further scrutiny, potentially raising complications for DP Worlds bid. Mr Shelby is expected to call for a hearing to discuss the issue in coming weeks."

Yeah....I know that the original letter to Bush was signed by Senator Tom Coburn of Oklahoma...and I respect him a LOT..
so, I have felt myself feeling that it is something that needs to be stopped. I trust Coburn...I don't know about Shelby...but, I think there will be more Republicans questioning this..
I have a feeling this could be a major topic on tomorrow's Sunday Talk shows...
You might want to watch tomorrow...and then come to the Sunday Talk Show thread...and have a discussion about this...I have a feeling we will be discussing this at length tomorrow.
I am against this right now...but, I would like to think that I could rationally listen to the other side with an open mind.
