Oppose, and I also oppose China running ports, so my vote isn't just about Dubai.

I know the ports are primarily, if not entirely, American worker operated, but the foreign influence of a port still exists.

Agreed. The Chinese are not our friends either (look at their votes on the UNSC). Eventually, when they feel powerful and untouchable enough, they will contact us to say they are taking over Taiwan the next day - and what will we do then?

If Wal-mart were a nation, they'd be China's 5th largest trading partner (and this was a company that bragged about how many American jobs they saved by buying American). We are paying for their buildup in money, and we'll pay in more important ways later.

This country better wake up and build stronger relationships with our neighbors and people who don't actually hate us. Build a wall around the Arab nations and tell them if they want to pipe out oil, we'll airdrop food, otherwise they can stay in there and kill each other off while leaving the rest of us alone. In return, we won't draw any cartoons....

Oppose because with oversight and management comes access, and access in the hands of Muslims brings with it an increased risk of terrorist attack.
