Help Please - How many repugs have spoken against port deal so far?
I am having a battle of fact with someone and I need the names of the repugs that have spoken out against the port deal. I was out of the loop yesterday and I don't want to forget anyone that might have spoken out against the deal.

I have Frist and Hastert. Who else has made a statement that I might have missed?

thanks in advance for the help.

3. Most of them! DeLay, for starters, if you can believe it.

The ones that think it's A-OK are more memorable. McCain, Warner, and yes, Lieberman.

Santorum came out against, Peter King, the rep. from NC (can't remember her name, but her comment was not just no, but hell no!), and most talking heads. I'll add more as I remember them.

Edit to add: Hayworth (AZ)

5. Wow, I have missed a few
I bet there are more too, aren't there?

The argument that I am having - the guy says that the dems are just being anti-arab and the repugs aren't because they aren't speaking out against the deal. The more repug names the better for this argument.

8. Sen. Talent-MO
Sen. Talent issued the following statement:

“This strikes me as a very dangerous move. I have to question the decision to turn over the operations of key American ports to a company inside the UAE, especially when we know our ports are a target for terrorists seeking to destroy critical infrastructure and disrupt world trade.
