U.S. ports in the hands of a state-owned Arab company	Dark_Crow	02/21/06

"Powerful Washington lawmakers citing security concerns on Tuesday pushed emergency legislation to block a controversial deal that would place management of six major U.S. ports in the hands of a state-owned Arab company." President Bush has stated we (America) are going forward and, "I will veto any legislation that stops us from going forward. I am not up to date on this matter. Can anyone tell me why we would allow a foreign Corporation to manage our ports? http://today.reuters.com/news/newsArticle.aspx?type=topNews&storyID=2006-02-21T184041Z_01_N19219437_RTRUKOC_0_US-SECURITY-PORTS.xml&archived=False
