NAFTA passed as an Act rather than a Treaty

The House of Representatives approved NAFTA on November 17,
1993, by a vote of 234 to 200. The agreement's supporters
included 132 Republicans and 102 Democrats. NAFTA passed the
Senate 61-38. Clinton signed it into law on December 8, 1993;
it went into effect on January 1, 1994.

Note that 61 is not 2/3 of the Senators present which is the
constitutional requirement to ratify a treaty. The "treaty"
was sent to the House of Representatives where it passed 234
to 200. I am not sure how an Act of Congress may affect Mexico
and Canada. The process itself smells!

Are They Really Sincere?

The Teamsters Union business agent was confined to the hospital.
A bouquet was sent, with a note reading:
“The Executive Board wishes you a speedy recovery, by a vote of
nine to six.”

Don Obama and his faithful companion Sancho Emanuel

Obama's fixation on alternative energy can be easily
compared to that of Don Quixote and his windmill.
The windmill is the savior rather than the villian for
Don Obama and his faithful companion Sancho Emanuel.
The fixation has distracted Don Obama from centuries
of supply of domestic, cleaner-burning natural gas which
could totally end the U.S. dependence on imported oil.
As we watch the oil from a deep-water well threaten the
beaches and ecosystems of the Gulf region, blame the
environmentalists and the government (and inept regulators)
for forcing off-shore and, in particular, deep-water
drilling. If the same subsidies were available for natural
gas as for wind and solar, then you would see the U.S.
transformed within a decade!
We currently sell our soul at 9.7 million barrels of imported
oil each day at $71.20/barrel.
China is building coal-fired power plants every week, but
they are also building state-of-the-art nuclear plants. Our
roles may be reversed in a decade.
