Frist is going to introduce legislation to postpone Ports deal with Dubai.
Just heard on one of the cable networks. They obviously see that this is a major political problem. At least put it on the back burner until we can figure out another way to sell it to the American people, seems to be the strategy.

2. So Frist is going to be seen as the hero in saving ......
our ports by delaying the deal.

You are right they are looking for another way to make the deal work for them, because they are not going to forego an opportunity to line their pockets.

4. Exactly, delay it until they can throw it into a larger bill when no one
will notice. They love this deal, but they know when it looks bad.
