Yes - Dubai Ports World gives up takeover of six US ports.

After controversy and fighting within both parties, DPW transferred power of six US ports over to a US company. I’m overwhelmed with emotion, for democracy has worked at its best, at least in this situation. The political supporters caved under public pressure. I love America.

Some of you may not agree with me, that the port take over was a bad idea, but that is what makes democracy great. We can disagree and come to a calm and concise decision on important matters, such as these. However, I don’t believe that this whole Dubai situation is behind us as of yet. Although, a senior Bush administration official said, “I'm told it will be a complete sale and if that's the case, I can't imagine it not answering the problem”.

I don’t believe any greased up, smiling from ear to ear politician, for all the bull shit I’ve seen over the years. There are a few good politicians, but note that I wrote a “few”. Trying to find an honest politician is like trying to find a needle in a haystack, literally.

I hope I’m wrong, and this business is behind us, but every day brings a new beginning or end, depending on how you want to look at it. What’s your say?
