Well the mob is really happy about the deal collapsing. China is probably laughing their backsides off because the morons in congress still haven't figured out that they've got the west coast deal, the Saudis and Kuwaitis are sniggering at them as well seeing as they have deals right now in NY and NJ.

All in all, congress looks pretty foolish.

Seriously, I bet they are all nervous right now. Congress' business is saving its own face, and there are plenty on record as anti-foreign involvement.

How much has congress cut the budget of the Coast Guard this year? How can citizens (or congress or the president) expect them to do the job of checking every container in every port, without increasing their budget, in order to make the ownership of foreign port facilities palatable to the American people?

We have both been here a long time and can tell when something is bad. There are going to be consequences for what has happenned and people may die because of it in the future because the U.S. is being viewed as an untrustworthy, reactionary country. Mindlessness.

Worse than foolish...venal, cowardly, and stupid.

Everybody in DC looks foolish. FWIW Congress is slowly figuring out that the CHICOMS are in up to their necks. As far as the others go - clueless.
