The port of public opinion...

"Protests about the planned transfer of management for several U.S. seaports to a state-owned company in the United Arab Emirates are fraught with almost as much confusion as fervor—which explains why the current division within the political parties is almost as stark as the one between them. When Karl Rove, Jimmy Carter and The Los Angeles Times line up on one side of an issue, while Senators Bill Frist, Chuck Schumer and The New York Times line up on the other, something is seriously amiss." --- The Patriot Post

AMEN to that. I have to admit - I'm conflicted. I have thought about this inside and out, backwards and forwards to the point where I think my head is about to explode. Knowledgeable, trustworthy people, whom I respect, have made good arguments for and good arguments against.

I cannot believe that know matter which side I eventually come down on, I will be agreeing with either Chuck Scumer/Hillary "Robb-em" Clinton, or Jimmy Carter/Al Gore. What an odd situation to be in.
