Bush is adamant about this deal because all his rich cronies will make big money off this deal. He does not want to let them down. I'll tell you what really stinks about this deal, the chairman of the comittee that approved the deal, Mr. Snow our Transport Secretary, is going to make millions on this deal, as will his close associates if/when this deal goes through. Talk about a Conflict of Interest.

As far as Bush having anything to lose. The only thing he can lose is a bunch of rich friends if he does not stand for their interests, because he has no political office that he can lose if the deal fails, he cannot run for President again. Why would you trust a man like Bush? The guy who was caught on video tape telling us just 18 months ago not to worry about domestic spying because the government had to seek warrants. Now we know he was lying through his lips about that matter. What else is he lying about?

If we are serious about port security, we would never let another country run our ports. OUR ports should be controlled by OUR country, or else we are opening up ourselves to security lapses and issues that aren't necessary.
