The political storm is of his own making. It was predictable – if only he didn't have a tin political ear, he should have realized the American people might not take this lying down.

I agree, he gave the American people far to much credit.

Man, am I sick to death of you liberal types who believe they are soooooooo damn much smarter than the majority of the American public. Take you're "I'm smarter than you all" propaganda and put it where the sun doesn't shine.

This is a Representative Republic and we are going to raise it from the dead. AS this deal has proves. So use the elitist crap on the liberals. True Conservatives have your RINO agenda days numbered.

Why would you say that? After 4+ years of the administration's whipping up the masses against anything and everything Arabic, what else did they think would happen?

Bingo. Since when is it the job of the President of the whole UNITED STATES OF FRIGGIN AMERICA to personally review every business transaction that touches on management of a relative handful port terminals out of several thousand in this country?

This deal had not business being bothered by the government, which only did so in a fit of pre-election demagogic pandering brought on by the fact that some people, both hippies and conservatives, couldn't deal with Ay-Rabs doing business here.

Of course, it's fine if murdering Chinese communists manage port terminals. That's different. ><
