"Senate Republican Leader Bill Frist called Tuesday for the Bush administration to stop a deal permitting a United Arab Emirates company to take over six major U.S. seaports,..."

You know you're in trouble when you can't even hang on to the support of your Senate Majority Leader.

Pathetic.

"Frist's move comes a day after two Republican governors, New York's George Pataki and Maryland's Robert Ehrlich, voiced doubts about the acquisition of a British company that has been running six U.S. ports by Dubai Ports World, a state-owned business in the United Arab Emirates."

This is why Frist, Pataki and Ehrlich will never be president. This thing has been around for a long time and these guys weren't aware of it?

DHS? I find your faith in this department disturbing...they couldn't handle a hurricane....and where pray tell do they at DHS get their intel? CIA....?

I support the President and voted for him twice...but he is wrong on this. It would be like giving Iran a contract to maintain our nuclear missile silos. Sure...it might make economic sense....but...

JEDI.
