How Is This A Good Thing?

CommonSenseAmerica reports on an impending issue that simply cannot be allowed: Mexican truckers coming freely into the U.S.

The Bush Administration is urging a federal appeals court to allow as many as 100 Mexican trucking companies free access to U.S. highways. Right now, Mexican trucks have to stop short of the border, where their cargo is loaded onto American trucks, and brought into the U.S. for delivery. There are several critical problems with this idea. First, American truckers will lose jobs by the thousands. Second, Mexican trucking companies have a much worse record of maintaining regulatory compliance records. Third, how many of those trucks do you suppose will be loaded to the roof with illegal aliens?

Why is the administration supporting this? Because they don't want to make Mexico mad.

WHAT?!

Who cares what Mexico thinks! Why is Bush more concerned with what Mexico thinks than what has been proven over and over to be a real economic, criminal, and terrorist danger to Americans?

This cannot be allowed!

There's my two cents.
