On CSPAN now, Senator Dodds debating about sending federal jobs...
overseas. Federal money belong here. Repubs say, hey we might upset some in the WTO countries...our trade agreement.

I'd like to know, when we get the jobs or do they just get to pay for our resources like fresh water,lumber, minerals from our parks?

This trade agreement stinks. All the jobs go out..nothing comes back in. What? This is not trade...it's called "plundering the Us for corporate profit".

Of-course the Repubs won't vote on it until they consult with Dick and the International CEOs.

Federal money going out!! Bull crap to any representative that thinks this is OK.

1. Senator and representative's voting records can
be found on-line. I suggest you look your representative and/or senator's record up and vote accordingly. I know I am.

2. How about outsourcing the candidacy of our politicians?
Arnold Swarznegger is already trying to weaken the law. It won't take much more for the next step. I say we vote in a Frenchie for congressman. At least we may have better chocolate in this country.

3. It hasn't been voted on as yet..
The majority won't bring it to the floor for a vote.

4. Questions that you already know the answer to:
Did they vote in favor of the tax cuts, military budget increases, and huge deficit that is completely out of control?

Did they vote in favor of the Iraq war?

Are they currently working on setting up the draft again?

Did they vote in favor of the "prescription bill?"

Did they vote in favor all the environment decimating bills?

Did they vote for the "No child left behind" disaster?

Did they favor cutting veteran benefits?

Were they one of those loudly proclaiming their disdain for France, Germany, and any one else who dared to tell us "no, you're wrong"?

I might add that if they're democrat or republican makes no difference on these issues. If they voted in favor of it, they gotta go in November.
