Another LIE. This was started by the RATs and the gullible followed right along.

Any proof for your libel? I was e-mailing my senators and representatives a good week before Schumer jumped on board. And I was far from alone.

Schumer didn't jump on board.  Peter King did.  This port deal had NOTHING to do with national security, and had EVERYTHING to do with politics.  More specifically "neo-protectionism". 

The Congresspeople against this port deal happens to be the most ill-informed bunch of rubes I've ever been witness to.  Suffice is to say, they were propagating the complete distortions perpetuated by the media.  They misreported this whole port sale from the word "go", not the least of which, they misrepresented the facts as well.

What's more.  These Congresspeople were spreading the alarmist goobledygook the media happend to be reporting, and FReepers were aligning with the likes of Schumer and Clinton, and RINO's like Peter King.  The ridiculous fact is, everyone against the port deal were all using the same talking points ad nauseum. Devoid of any factual logic when it pertains to usual business transactions, and who is actually in charge of security in this country; specifically border security.

I should also add that the funniest part of this whole port deal was the fact that the DUmmies wanted this port deal killed NOW, not 45 days from now, not run through the microscope of public scrutiny through public hearings on the Hill; they and their union buddies wanted it killed NOW. DPW was all FOR the 45-day investigation, and they were complying from day one of this story.

Why? Well, I will tell you why. This was a political loser for the left, and had it gone through the 45 day investigatory process, you, me, and everyone else paying attention to this port deal story would have learned of the TRUTH and the FACTS, and it would not have been seen through the prism of alarmist hysteria.

The Democrats and their unions were panicking.

The first idiot squawking about this was Schumer that is easily verified by anyone who cares.

And I do not lie I leave that to the mislead and misinformed gleefully following the Party of Treason's attacks on our ally and President.
