Well, this post is utter crap. I wonder if the author even read the agreement.

CAFTA is good for conservatives. It's bad for nobody except the sugar farmers who take your tax dollars to make sure that you pay more for sugar than anyone else in the world.

It doesn't even hurt them much, but they'll make you think it's the end of the world if you pay lower prices.

I cannot believe how many conservatives are being suckered into opposing this agreement. I thought we were the better educated party.

Once it is blue collar workers, another time it is IT workers, then textiles, steel, this time the sugar farmers. Each time only a minority is affected.

How is CAFTA conservative? It wasn't even written by the only constitutional body that is authorized to make trade agreements. Congress can't even change CAFTA now they can only vote on it. How is that conservative? How does that uphold the Constitution? How does it preserve our right to elected representation?

You should probably explain that statement.
