’ Sen. John Cornyn, R-Mexico, who drafted a Republican alternative to Dorgan’s amendment, said the attempt to block the trucks appeared to be about limiting competition and may amount to discrimination against Mexico.’

I’d like to point out that the parenthetical commentary wasn’t entered by me.

Why oppose competition?

Why assume someone born here is of necessity superior to someone not so fortunate as to their birthplace?

John Cornyn is one of the good guys. You may disagree with him on this point, but it would be a serious loss were he to leave office.

The Senate voted Tuesday to ban Mexican trucks from U.S. roadways

If we can't let Mexican trucks into the country, what idiot believes that we're just going to merge with Mexico (and Canada)? Oh, right, Corsi. LOL!

it’s called putting your country first. Keeping in mind who wields the power. The People.

Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas, who drafted a Republican alternative to Dorgan's amendment, said the attempt to block the trucks appeared to be about limiting competition and may amount to discrimination against Mexico.

definition of discriminate: to recognize or perceive the difference

It is about time we perceived the difference between Mexico and the United States.
