"The world is getting to be much, much smaller, and businesses, communications and corporate structures are changing to accommodate the changes that are occurring."
No doubt. But a smaller world doesn't mean leaving your children with a babysitter with someone that hasn't had their references checked. Both Rove and the President admitted not knowing about the deal. Rove went as far as saying they could have done a better job "in this case". So please don't preach the supposed existence of this being a part of the "grand plan of American globalization". It was not handled correctly, but I am willing to give the President a pass so that he can re-look at it. He seems to be now trying to make a point. Not going over very well indicative of a 62-2 vote.
Are you unaware that Congress passed the legislation that required absolute secrecy in making such a deal. Had the participants told anyone...Rove, Bush, anyone...they would have been in violation of the law passed by Congress itself.
