One thing I did not take into account is the way XML uses the text, The following function was added and each text node was wrapped in the function.
function escapeXml(unsafe) {    return unsafe.replace(/[<>&'"]/g, function (c) {
        switch (c) {
            case '<': return '&lt;';
            case '>': return '&gt;';
            case '&': return '&amp;';
            case '\'': return '&apos;';
            case '"': return '&quot;';
        }
    });
}

And for clarification on why I have such a round about way is because we have looping relationships on the tables involved and the manager only wanted specific fields copied instead of all of them.
