Bush will be irritated. Second term Presidents always are when their authority starts to ebb.
In concrete terms, this deal doesn't threaten American physical security at all. But the optics are pretty bad.

Someone should ask Bush if he would like the Arabs to take over his personal security detail - see if the Secret Service would like to turn over their weapons to the Moos - good enough for all of us, good enough for him.

In concrete terms, this deal doesn't threaten American physical security at all. I would agree with you if Dubai Ports World was a private company. But I think Neal Boortz has it right this time that the United States has never been attacked by a private company.
