This bad deal isn't dead yet... Congress, don't lose Your nerve.

Senator: UAE firm to transfer port operations to U.S. 'entity' - CNN.com

It appears that Congress is not totally deaf to the public, at least when the public reacts with enough unity and outrage.

However, this deal doesn't really sound dead. Dubai Ports World is proposing giving control of the ports to an American "entity". Why does DPW have any say in the matter if the deal is dead?

Let's remain vigilant and work to regain American control of all our American ports. The days are gone when it was acceptable to have our key infrastructure owned or operated by entities aligned with nations whose friendliness toward the United States is dubious at best.
