<<In contrast to you, Richard, who merely pays lip service to our most basic human freedoms, I am a strong advocate of free trade. I don't see how anyone with a clear conscience can be opposed to free trade? The fact is that we live in an international economy where the vast majority of American midcap and largecap companies do the bulk of their sales overseas. Why should these companies be unfairly taxed for doing business with other nations?>> You have greatly misread me if you think I'm against free trade or even free trade with China, BUT I find few(other than communists) that would include our military secrets the any free trade agreement. I fully agree with the moderate republicans who now are saying sure sign it, but "Save the cherry for GWB". Open markets, not the current agreement which has been bought behind closed doors only provides a one way turnstyle instead of true open markets.
