OMG! Read all of Cboldts' posts!

Here are some highlights...

As a sidenote, the U.S. Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS) meets in secret and is headed by Treasury Secretary John Snow. In 2004, DP World purchased part of the American company CSX for over $1 billion. Before he became Treasury Secretary, John Snow was Chairman and CEO of CSX.

Dubai, 24 January 2006: - Global ports operator DP World today welcomed news that one of its senior executives, Dave Sanborn, has been nominated by US President George W. Bush to serve as Maritime Administrator a key transportation appointment reporting directly to Norman Mineta the Secretary of Transportation and Cabinet Member.

Funny how all these DP connected pawns are nominated to positions that will smooth the way for DP to take over the 6 East Coast Ports "Operations"

The FIX IS IN! Screw the damn 'Bots here, this STINKS like Able Danger, like LORAL, like ALL these damn connected Gub'Mint deals stink!

For full disclosure which you left out, DP World bought that part of CSX one year after Snow had left CSX.

BTW, Itzy, what's your "solution". It's one foreign company buying another. If you are so outraged now, how come you weren't outraged at a foreign company already running port services.

BTW, when is chuckie schumer going to criticize Tiger Woods for playing golf in Dubai and taking their money?

DUBAI, United Arab Emirates - Two shots into the water cost Tiger Woods the lead at the Dubai Desert Classic. Danish journeyman Anders Hansen made nine birdies for a 9-under 63 and Retief Goosen celebrated his 39th birthday with a 5-under 67 to share the second-round lead at 13-under 131

Here's more - on this thread for the record. The Sanborn nomination is at most tangentially relevant, due to the nature of the post he has been nominated to.
