Good for unocal for rejecting China's offer.

Yes. Especially since we can't count on the US govenment to intervene when national security is at stake.

Which brings to mind a point I believe needs to be discussed at length in the US congress. That being, should it even be legal for a [foreign] company that is basically a front for a [hostile] foreign government to aquire ANY US company. Period.

IMO, it should not be so. And the national legislature should be the body dealing with it. Of course, doing that would cause lots of yellow stained pants in the senate.

No, congress is too busy making sure that reproductive rights and condoms are being equally distributed to the world. the government doesnt have time for trivial matters like national security and protecting us from people who have threatened to nuke us if we defend taiwan. the real arch villain here is clinton. it was he who normalized relations with this monstrosity and further enabled them by allowing them a seat in the global economic community.
