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.

Let the Dems try and make it an issue. I'm glad Bush came out swinging today. They wouldn't have hired this company if they didn't know what they were doing. The fact Bush is threatening a veto means he knows that he is right.

We'll see who blinks first, won't we!!!!!!!

I agree that perception is everything. However, the nice thing about being on the right is that we think and decide on the facts. If Bush decided to disrupt the deal just because of perception for political purposes when the facts show he should stay out of it, than he is no better than a Dem. Many decisions are made that are viewed as bad by the press and liberals because on the face they look "evil" or "unfeeling" or against "civil rights," when the reality is they were sound decisions based on true principles. I say make the right decision based on the facts and let the chips fall.

I hope conservatives don't start basing their opinion of a decision based on perception.
