Why the Congress should declare Ports sale null and void ?

[kentuck]

First of all, nobody knew about it. Bush didn't know about it. The Homeland Security Chief, Chertoff, did not know about it. And Congress did not know about it. Since when do the British and the UAE decide they can make deals over the ports of our country without any knowledge or input from this country?? Do they think we have nothing to say about it? One wonders how many more deals are in the works?

But Congress should send a message to the British and the UAE. Stop this bullshit. Our country is not yours to sell at will and neither are our ports or the operations of our ports. Get it? Congress should declare the sale null and void immediately. There are more proper channels to go thru if the British and the Dubai governments wish to make a deal.
