Tazzy, that was then this is now.
You can't tell me that Hoffa is "in favor" of letting Mexican trucks into this country.


The mexican truck story was back in Feb, pops.

That interview was from September.


And it was last thursday or friday when "the first" Mexican truck drove up to Dallas.

Wilber, the Teamsters will vote against *anyone* who fucks them. They don't give a shit about "parties!" If they think you're going to put money in their pockets "you're in" with the Teamsters.
If you're going to cost them a lot of money for some new "healthcare" plan when they already have one of the best going for much cheaper "you're out" with the Teamsters!
When you want to know where the Teamsters are on any issue just think $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
You'll never go wrong.

Mexico cut the tariffs in half this summer after Obama and Mexican President Felipe Calderon approved an inspection and monitoring program for the companies that had been approved in 2009. The Mexican government has vowed to lift the rest once the truck heads out of the border zone Friday.

............

“We certainly hope that it cannot be stopped,” said James Clark, director of the San Diego Regional Chamber of Commerce’s Mexico Business Center. “The U.S. has been in violation of the NAFTA agreement ever since the beginning of the trucking issue. Mexican trucks have every right to come into the U.S. under NAFTA as long as the trucks are fully inspected to U.S. standards and the drivers speak English.”



This site if from the washington post... you will have to search for the link. It only allows one view.

The dispute between the two nations, which have a $393 billion trading relationship, dates to the North American Free Trade Agreement in 1995. U.S. officials have promised on multiple occasions to resolve the standoff.

The U.S. initiated a pilot program in 2007 that let as many as 100 Mexican trucking companies haul cargo into the U.S. It was canceled in 2009 under a provision in a spending bill passed by Congress. Mexico responded by placing retaliatory tariffs on U.S. imports.

Under the agreement today, half the tariffs will be lifted as soon as the deal is signed, and the remainder once the first Mexican truck is allowed to enter the U.S.

Stupid kids are blaming everyone except who they should be blaming which is democrats. Obama just signed 3 new free trade agreements that Bush started even though he said he would either cancel NAFTA or at least renegotiate it, then he just let Mexican trucks start rolling across the country even though 5000 trucking companies have gone out of business since the recession started.

Are you people absolute morons? Obama is just laughing his ass off that you are attempting to help him get reelected.

You really need to get a clue what is going on before you pontificate so pathetically.
