I guess Obama was serious when he said that he wanted to re-negotiate NAFTA.

I guess the republican congress should have dealt with this when george bush was president. Oh-h-h that's right. he was getting us into Iraq and staying the course all those years.

This sat for 8 years and the prior administration did nothing about it. Don't blame Obama. Give him 8 years then complain. < :-)

This sat for 8 years and the prior administration did nothing about it." That's right! See, we can find common ground sometimes

But "Don't blame Obama. Give him 8 years then complain." Was is complaining an attack on Obama? C'mon, I've been waiting for a long time. Mexico won't allow my company to do business there and I even hired Mexicans to break the deal for me.

The trucking unions and other affiliated groups held this up, according to NPR. Of course Bush never pushed the issue. Obama is too new to blame, IMHO. Not that he would have spruned the unions anyway...

Either way the growing issues with world trade need to be carefully controlled. Restraint of trade was the final nail in the coffin lid back in the 1930s.

Between the bankers and the politicians we are surrounded by idiots.
