Norm Coleman, is going to have a bill about foreign management
of the ports, Not sure whats in all of it but, it will hold ALL of the companies to the same standard. China, Singapore, Taiwan and the UAE. I guess from what i heard from it so far will require ALL of them to have US managers control their business/terminals. I just heard some of his proposals on Fox last night, I'd need to hear more about it, but maybe its something you would be interested in.

My point is that if the Democraps are so worried about foreign influence, they wouldn't mind a Super Bowl-sized airing of grievences--and dirty laundry-- in a public forum with FULL media attention. If "Portgate" is bad news...Where does "Chinagate" rank? If the Democrats want to use this to ruin the President, what could Chinagate warrant? The death penalty?

If what I stated above was to take place (which it wouldn't) I am willing to see 2/3rds of the Republicans thrown under the bus if 4/5 of the Democraps go with them.

The fact that Portgate is getting this level attention does not bother me. I think it deserves it. Although I STILL haven't come down with a firm opinion either way. I can't think of an issue in which I can see both sides of the argument like I can this one (Among the participating CONSERVATIVES, at least, not the political minded liberals)

The fact that AbleDanger, Chinagate, etc. have NOT received the appropriate level of media concern and attention (IMO, at least 10 times the level of Portgate is justifiable) proves to me we live in a "government media matrix" a la Keannu Reeves and Laurence Fishburne.

If there was any justice, the media would have their First Amendment credentials taken away for their incompetence bias, and collusion with the Democrat Party.

These US "managers" would no doubt be selected from the enormous pool of bureaucratic numbskulls who are responsible for most every SNAFU.
