A touch of the FIDS (Fraternal Immuno-Deficiency Syndrome) has put me behind the eight ball. A Rapid Fire session is necessary but that will wait for now.
A quick word on port security: At first, I reacted to selling port operations as tantamount to selling border posts. But the importation of goods is distinguishable; it involves a port of origin, a national flag above the ship while at sea, a 'regulated' unloading crew in the States (I hesitate to say regulated, northeast New Jersey residents can testify to rampant organized crime at sea ports), and US government security services & oversight. Each distinction creates responsibility for involved individuals and their sponsoring government should the unspeakable happen, again.
This hot-button reeks of racism. Patronizing politicians are peddling passions and prejudices.
UPDATE: New Jersey's Democratic governor, Jon Corzine, is suing to block the deal. The puppet's strings are being pulled...
Comment Response: The first comment is 100% correct. Knee jerk reactionaries are pushing this issue with superfluity and it will eventually be an embarrassment to them.

I am all for kneejerking.
