JF, I'm just amazed at how Elroy's comments are taken in the worst possible way.

There was barely a comment by me! I just cut and pasted an article about another acquisition of a US company by a Dubai-based company. Wondering whether all the objectors to the port deal would feel the same about home builders....no one seems to care about this deal, probably because it is not on Fox news (as far as I know), so it doesn't even hit the radar screen of the "topic of the week" protesters here.
