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.

Hopefully, the voters of Texas will remember this and discriminate against Cornyn at his next primary election.

I am under the impression that this is a treaty requirement.

Blocking the trucks would help Democrats curry favor with organized labor, an important ally for the 2008 presidential elections.

Yep.

In two words: who cares? Does Mexico have civil rights under the Constitution?

None can carry hazardous material or haul cargo between U.S. points.

Except illegal aliens, terrorists and their WMD's.

That statement is apparently in error.


Corrected version:

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

According to what I have read this free flow of truck traffic between Canada/USA/Mexico is part of a legal treaty between the countries - and therefore the law.

Therefore it had to have been agreed to by the Senate and signed by the President.

When did all this happen?? and who were the big players??

This a very good thing.
The “lets all make one happy American continent” people won’t like it.
But it’s a good day for the sovereignty of the United States.

"One of the carrier's trucks crossed the border in Laredo, Texas last week and delivered its cargo in North Carolina on Monday and was expected to return to Mexico late this week after a stop in Decatur, Ala."

Wonder who had to get out in Decatur?
