That gut feeling comes from eagerly swallowing so much guff from your
mullahs -- I mean, Republican thought leaders -- over the last five years.

As a matter of fact and rational policy, the DPW deal bothers me not at
all. Omygawd, Japanese buy Rockefeller Center and MGM -- devious
inscrutable Nip-ness will infiltrate our culture! Omygawd, CNOOC bids for
Unocal -- oil will stop being a fungible commodity! Omygawd, even 110%
Americans are daily tricked into eating yogurt and drinking bottled waters
from a  FRENCH company!

See, Mark, when people spend years chanting nonsense about "clash of
civilizations" and "Islamofascism" and "9/11 changed
everything" and "national security justifies anything," they
shouldn't be surprised when it sinks in... even in their own guts.
