I could care less about Coulter: What's going on in the get-rid-of-"free trade" front re. Congress?

Edited on Thu Mar-08-07 08:30 PM by brentspeak

Is there any currently proposed legislation to scale back or even withdraw completely from NAFTA and CAFTA (hopefully)? What about the outrage that's the Marianas Islands? Will products made in Saipan finally not be able to have "made in USA" printed on them? Congressional debates and forums on how to revitalize domestic American manufacturing?

2. Nothing happening other than Bush pushing for even more fake free trade

deals along with fast track authority.

4. Brentspeak, most DUers simply don't respond to trade posts.

I realize that's disgusting to some of us who care, but that's simply the way it is here.

5. It's extremely distressing

Many people would rather chat about Ann Coulter, Sarah Silverman, or a German incest case, than about the meat-and-potato issues that affect their (or at least, 80% of their fellow citizens') livelihoods.
