What's that smell?

The COO (Chief Operating Officer) of that Dubai company wanting to buy our ports was on the "Situation Room" with Wolf Blitzer today.

Turns out this guy was born and raised in Washington. He's very proud of a picture he has of his mother sitting on the White House steps with one of our Presidents.

His father was a United States Senator.

I think I'm starting to smell something here, sort of like a company that is perhaps owned and operated by Washington insiders, but based in Dubai to dodge our taxes. After all, what is this Dubai, other than a place (like Nigeria) to resister oil tankers to avoid taxes and regulation?

If this is what's happening, I can certainly see why this deal was conducted in secret, and why this particular administration likes it so much.
