The Deal didn't bypass Anything. The INVESTIGATION, IF REQUIRED, must be completed within 45 days. Where am I wrong?

Okay! But don't you think a 45 day investigation is required in a transaction of this nature?

Chuckie Schumer and company knew about this deal as did many others months ago and did nothing. They knew this would be the perfect event to make Republicans play right into their hands, which is what they are doing and making the country think that Dems are on top of National security. Schumer could have made noise and lined up his offense to the deal long ago and Singapore would have got the deal but he decided to play this one out and boy are the conservative talking heads making an *ss of themselves now.

What we think isn't relevant. Only the law as written is relevent.

And again, this is not a foreign purchase of a U.S. company.
