3. Yet 15 Democratic congressmen just sold out yesvotes on CAFTA

Thomas Frank is right, yet the Democrats still have some who insist on joining the Repubs in selling us out, in this case more outsourcing of jobs in another ill-conceived trade agreement.

The Repubs used 'national security' this time and probably a lot of hidden payoffs we'll never see. But these 15 'representatives' don't represent the people, they voted for corporate interests !
