There have been a lot of good points for this, along with the occasional charge of racism. I would like to re-state my original feeling that we do not need to let any foreign entity control our ports. This is the kind of thing we have governments for.
The latest news is that Bush himself was unaware that the British controlled our ports. This is a backlash he didn't expect and is now defending.
