I thought that the government was refusing those requests, but let’s not digress.

The Commerce Dept refused to hand over about some 80% of the requested documents. So its clearly not a digression. And the documentary non-performance should not have been news to you, if you had bothered reading anything, which you haven't been doing...as evidenced by your attempted "summary" of my contributions proves. Thus proving my point about you guys feinting without actually acknowledging the documents.

You are thugs.

As for your pathetic last gasping argument you then demand proof from me, when you still haven't read anything (still further confirming my point):

...somewhere in the Judicial Watch documents is evidence of some amorphous “disavowals” that “have now evidently been debunked.” Care to point them out?

Care to read Robert A. Pastor's contribution to the S.P.P.? It's there right in black and white. His CFR Task Force "Toward a North American Community" which discusses how to evade and undermine U.S. sovereignty and defacto implement the North American Union has been incorporated into the SPP agenda. Surprise. A smoking gun right under your nose. It's hardly the only one, but it is likely dispositive.

Especially since it is Robert Paster's disengenuous talking points issued in the recent disavowals sniffing at the supposed "myths" against of the SPP...on behalf of the Commerce Dept.

Gee, how did they...and he... get there???

Of course, you will call it all a coincidence...

Ah, I see. It's not your failure to cite to a passage that supports a particular fact, but my failure to read everything you've posted and find it myself. Have you ever considered asking someone's help in making your arguments for you?

I was also bombarded by some who were unable to read and look up relevant info. I am not in to spoon feeding posters.

I inadvertly found this article from the state department. To my knowledge it hasn't been posted on FR.

U.S. Increases Support for Labor and Environmental Protection Improvements in Central America-Dominican Republic Free Trade Agreement Countries



The Department of State announced today that the U.S. government will commit $39.6 million in 2006 to help Central America-Dominican Republic Free Trade Agreement (CAFTA-DR) member countries enhance labor and environmental protection practices, to ensure that the broad spectrum of CAFTA-DR societies benefit from free trade.

The funded projects will complement initiatives now underway in these areas that received $19.84 million in support in 2005. Projects to be funded are both local and regional in scope, and were identified in consultation with member state governments to ensure they address priorities specific to each country. Of the 2006 funding, $21.1 million will be devoted to the area of labor, in programs to:

strengthen labor ministries by professionalizing labor inspectorates and by partnering with local organizations to increase the efficiency of the complaint handling process within the Ministry of Labor;

strengthen the effectiveness of countries’ judicial systems to enforce existing labor laws;

eliminate gender and other types of discrimination in the workplace;
enhance benchmarking and verification procedures;
support the development of a culture of compliance with labor laws; and
reduce chemical risks to agricultural workers from pesticides.
From the 2006 funds, $18.5 million will go to environment projects to:


improve the implementation and enforcement of environmental laws;
enhance biodiversity and conservation;
promote market-based conservation such as sustainable tourism and sustainable agricultural and forest products;
increase private sector environmental performance; and
address specific CAFTA-DR obligations that promote public participation and effective enforcement of environmental laws.

Free trade is not free. Aren't we lucky that we get to pay for more "ministers and inspectorates"? Another $39 million down the drain. This money must come from a "hush fund".
