"Looks and feeling are not the way to govern. That is how the democrats do it."

Thanks, that is exactly how I feel. I'm seeing a lot of factless posturing on this issue...one of the attributes of a conservative that makes me proud is gathering the FACTS and then offering opinion (which is why Dems are always the first out of the gate along with the media to pronounce or denounce something).

To have such a strong feeling before knowing whether this acquisition of a lease will have any effect on port security is premature.

Perception is EVERYTHING, and if I were Hillary and the Democrats this could be the silver platter issue, that saves the next two elections cycles for the Democrats.

And its probably safe to have UAE as owner of the Company that runs the ports, but me thinks Carl Rove was BYPASSED on this.

But the Democrats will be all over this like a CHEAP SUIT, and hope or even create an incident that could be blamed on BUSH.
