Democrats give America's great South American ally Colombia the shaft.
Democrats side with international Marxist groups, the Chavez regime and trade unions to squash a free trade agreement with staunch American ally Colombia.
The Democrat excuse: The Democrats "fib" that they are blocking because of attacks on trade unionists.
The Truth: The Uribe government has reduced the number of murders of activists by 80% since 2002.
What the mainstream media will not tell you
The Democratic point man on Colombia was recently caught dealing with the Colombian FARC Marxist terrorists!!!
The Wall Street Journal reports on this major news story that will most likely not get much press:
It is only because the Uribe government began programs and investigations into the violence against trade unionists that the violence has fallen by 80%. But, this is still the Democrat's excuse to side with international Leftists and Marxist groups and against Colombia.
Worst-Congress-Ever---- Indeed.
