Because I know…

…that your day isn't complete without some news about that Kerry fella, there's this...

"There's a reason CAFTA is in trouble. There's a reason why so many long time trade supporters oppose it today. It's a bad agreement."

For me, Kerry's standing as a Clintonian free-trader was always one of the less attractive parts of his record, so I'm pleased by this forthright stand, and by his obvious ability to learn from past mistakes and change course accordingly, further evidenced by the AFL-CIO supported Kerry Amemdment, which would put labor and environmental standards into CAFTA that would protect American jobs and everyone's planet.
