WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Republicans in the House of Representatives will approve a new free trade agreement with Central America late on Wednesday with the help of a few Democrats, House Majority Leader Tom DeLay said.

"It will be a tough vote but we'll pass CAFTA tonight," DeLay told reporters after a meeting between President Bush and House Republicans. "We will honor our commitments to the south, we will protect our national security and will do it all with very few Democrats."

Was there ever any doubt? This is just another great opportunity for the Republican leadership to sell out the American people in the interest of globalism.

And to think I voted for Delay. I am discusted.

"We will honor our commitments to the south, we will protect our national security

This is an Oxymoron.

Good news ping.

If so then they are nothing but a bunch of Traitors who are willing to sell America out to the highest bidder, and as such need to be removed from office.

If a whiner whines about CAFTA and everyone ignores her, what will she whine about tomorrow?

[ConservativeTerrapin]

Hey troll!

[SC33]

It just doesn't make sense. CAFTA is not a good deal for the American people.

[TXBSAFH]

I agree with him, cafta is nothing but a shafting of the American People.

Take a looksy on the US Gov site about CAFTA, and notice how the most important aspects of the bill are conveniently no longer on the server.

Eh, perhaps you are right about Cafta, as we need to create jobs here, but not all Republicans aren't selling out to globalism. That sounds like what peaceniks would say, but I can see where are you coming from now. I take back my zot.

[SC33]

I agree. I'm just sick and tired of Republicans like McCain, Kolbe, Flake, and others who do not represent the party. Even though I am a conservative, I have to admit that the Bush position on illegal immigration is angering me and more as time goes by.

[Mi-kha-el]

OK. CAFTA bad, China good. Let's continue feeding the Chinese war machine.

[Willie Green]

This is an Oxymoron.

"One of our defects as a nation is a tendency to use what have been called `weasel words.' When a weasel sucks eggs the meat is sucked out of the egg. If you use a `weasel word' after another there is nothing left of the other.

Here's a site that Dick Cheney and the rest of CFR haven't hacked yet. They don't want us to know the truth that the CFR and transnational corporations are conspiring to give all our sovereignty to the OAS and send all our jobs to third-world banana republics. Oh look, It's Elvis!!
