"I think the majority of America is against this deal. The majority of FR is."
How do you know? Have you taken a poll?
I believe the contrary is true on FR. The hotheads were right out of the gate here when the news broke. The more experienced freepers and wiser heads actually waited for the FACTS to break.
I've been reading every thread on this subject and the number of freepers who have changed their minds or come to reasoned pro-port licensing agreement conclusion is astonishing.
I see no evidence that your statement has any validity.......and wishing won't make it so.

Levin is such a POS
$$$$
Levin is lying with every word he reads into the record. When these Dems refuse to mention CFIUS and the demands of secrecy that Congress put in place, they are just continuing to show that they have no respect for actual laws, if a law interferes with their position of any particular issue.

Here we go with the "Bush isn't taking care of the ports" thing.
This was a complete set up.

Chappy Ted, doesn't sound so "enthused" in his opposition.
Looks like he is just reading the lines.
Now Sir hillary is doing the same thing.

Mary Kay has some stuff that would take care of that, pronto!
I am amazed God doesn't strike her dead after the ChiCom deal. She's got SOME nerve -- and she thinks we have amnesia.

Well, I see you're quoting my previous message, so obviously I know who has the security role and there's no reason for you to yell at me. Really maica, I'm not stupid.
I'll join the thread later.
To: TomGuy
Those are "around the world" bags, aren't they?
