Okay so are you equally concerned about the port facilities on the West Coast run by the Red Chinese? If you are so shocked about Dubai Ports World where is your outrage over the National Shipping Company of Saudi Arabia. They run 9 port terminals on the east coast.

You are being used by a group of politician pandering to the stevedore unions. Congratulations.

I am equally, if not more so, concerned about the Chicomms. The Chinese are highly competent and are doing a brilliant job of spreading their tentacles. I trust the Saudi's, the Dubain's etc... as far as I can throw them.

My opposition has nothing to do with supporting the unions as I am a free market capitalist and consider the unions an artificial barrier to that economic school of thought. How would you label me? Did you ever leave room for the possibility that there are conservatives out there who oppose the deal from strictly a national security point of view?

Yes, and I have written about that for years. I'm surprised that more people aren;t upset that a country that has nuclear warheads pointed at our country is in control of ports, waterways, and other vital enterprises. And the Saudis should not be allowed ot run ports in our country either, as active supporters of terrorism. Unfortunately, that doesn't make the news nearly as much as the Dubai deal (which happily went Dubai-bye) or even teh Red Chinese situations.
