Frist calls for halt to UAE Port deal

[Abcdxxxx]

First of all, we know Homeland Security has zero ability to delegate. What I understand is would actually be a subcontract. Our ports handle all sorts of sordid business to begin with, and only 3% of it is regulated by Homeland Security. I'm still at a loss in trying to understand how a foriegn company can be put in charge of these ports daily operations without the giving them the opportunity to breach security clearances, and gain exposure to information which should be priviledged.

By the way, a Chinese company was blocked from buying a US Oil services company, last year, for the same concerns.
