Those Ports

The story is all over the place and actually broke in the midst of Cheneygate. The Environmental Republican sums it up well.
All I can say is what the f**k is the president thinking?

Thank goodness the Democrats have finally found a real issue they can stomp up and down about. Something that matters. Hillary, herself has vowed to stop this.
Hillary Clinton is to introduce legislation in the US which would block the take-over of P&O by Dubai Ports World.

It sounds like it may be Republican Governors who will have the quickest say in the issue though as they "indicated they may try to cancel lease arrangements at ports in their states because of the DP World takeover."
Either way - no way is this going to happen. It just can't. Now, who gets the credit? Republican or Democrat? Go ahead and fight this one out, either way, we, the people, win. And wouldn't it be nice to have a serious Democratic party?
