Thanks for the ping, Sarcasm!

My, my. Isn't this interesting? NAFTA has supplanted the U.S. Constitution as the law of the land - and, by extension, has subordinated our President, our Congress, and our Courts to an unelected international government.

And what of the WTO? Do their rules supersede US sovereignty as well? (Yes, they do!) Are we ready to let India, China, Ghana, and Zimbabwe rule us?

And so another poisonous fruit of free trade ripens!

Free traitors - truly, they are traitors - have placed themselves and their countrymen in chains so they could have cheap trinkets from China and India.

If you want on or off my offshoring ping list, please FReepmail me!

Let's not get too hysterical, shall we? These tribunals only apply to NAFTA trade cases, and congress can abrogate them at any time. For that matter, the courts could do the same, foreign policy or treaties notwithstanding.

Personally, I think the treaty should be amended so that only jurists from the member nations are included.

I'm sure that there are equally poisonous fruits in the FTAA. BTW, where are the "free traders" - searching for talking points?
