I am a Bush supporter, but for the life of me I cannot understand his reasoning. To allow any foreign government or company other than American to even maintain an office at one of ports, let alone manage the loading and unloading of shipments is the same as treason and should be treated as such.

If the President doesn't stop this then impeachment proceedings should start now. Like I said, this is treason.

"To allow any foreign government or company other than American to even maintain an office..."

The president who started that has already been impeached, but not for allowing foreign countries in our ports. P&O Steam has run the cargo facilities at those ports for some time now, and they are foreigners.

I'd like to see American companies in those ports, and running our powerplants and our big farms. We must find out why American companies are outbid, or fail to bid, on these critical infrastructure points. Is it some policy in the USA? Or simple economics?

This problem goes way beyond ports and cargo and needs to be addressed soon.
