...the Senate approved a proposal by Sen. Byron Dorgan, D-N.D...

Democrats...doing the work that Republicans won't do.

Seriously, why weren't the Pubbies on this first?

Por que? No hay Problema aqui. Pasenle.

I hate it when I find myself on the side of a liberally controlled senate.

GOOD, ban ‘em all.

So, anyone, does that mean the Mexican trucks will unroll or just be defunded but still roll?

[jetson]

The whole illegal trucking stupidity makes no sense. Homeland Security has said they are doing EVERYTHING POSSIBLE to protect our interior from terrorism. A new law has been passed so that an employer can be fined ten thousand dollars for hiring illegals. Mortgages are under strain and every dollar counts for the US worker and Georgie poo is allowing illegal truckers onto our land with who knows what on board. This is border line insanity let alone not protecting our borders.

Under NAFTA, Mexico can seek retaliation against the U.S

PLEASE PLEASE DO

The sooner NAFTA is broken, the faster the U.S.A. will heal.

I am an ex-trucker. I could care less if Mexicans hauled the freight throughout America. There is a good chance they would be more courteous and responsible then 70% of the truckers we presently have.

Best news I’ve heard all day. What I couldn’t understand was how the gnarled freeways and roads in California were going to accommodate these trucks. We’re already at gridlock.

[RedStateRocker]

“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.”

Senator- when even most of the Democrats in the Senate have more brains or guts than you, it is time to go.
Actually makes me a nanometer less embarrassed for having Feinstein as my senator;-)
