Protectionism: The Buchannanist "Festung Amerika" is being proposed over this port deal. If it's allowed to run wild, a new Great Depression will ensue, leading to a major war. Besides, robbing us to pay lazy, protected bums is a crime...

I wasn't aware that the Taoists and Buddhists were sending suicide bombers and poison gas to our shores. Better check the seals on that new plasma TV...

If we go ahead with the port deal we better be prepared to let Pakistan, or more likely, Saudi Arabia make the same kind of purchases. Bush is nuts, trying to get Pakistan democratized, as much as they hate us over there.

Re: "...if we turn down the Dubai deal, we better be prepared to cancel any foreign agreements and become protectionists, no?" No... just stand up for Capitalism and free markets --- and don't let FOREIGN GOVERNMENT OWNED 'businesses' bid on critical infrastructure projects state-side... unless and until US companies are allowed to do exactly the same in those foreign lands. No more Uncle Sucker. That's not 'Protectionist', that's simply standing up for equal market access for OUR COMPANIES.
