What Do You Mean 'We,' Mon Ami? The New York Times' Thomas Friedman had a curious column the other day (ellipses in original) Lordy, it is fun poking fun at France. But wait . . . wait . . . what is that noise I hear coming from the U.S. Congress? Is that . . . is that members of the U.S. Congress--many of them Democrats--threatening to reject Cafta, the Central American Free Trade Agreement? Is that members of the U.S. Congress afraid to endorse a free-trade agreement, signed over a year ago, with El Salvador, Costa Rica, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua and the Dominican Republic? Mon Dieu! I am afraid it is. And for many of the same reasons France has resisted more integration: a protectionist fear of competition in a world without walls. Yes, we are all Frenchmen now. Shouldn't that read, "Democrats are all Frenchmen now?"
