Mexico's Calderon Comes to Town, as Trucks Still Stalled

The Mexican government has indicated it is discussing the issue in
good faith and that their U.S. counterparts are working hard. This is
good news. However, the tariffs remain in place, harming American
manufacturers who cannot ship their products to one of their largest
markets without a massive markup that prices them out of the market.
Many of these exporters are small & medium manufacturers – more than
90 percent of U.S. exporters to Mexico are SMMs. And waiting in the
wings is a rotation of products on the retaliation list. We haven’t
seen that list, but last time it was rotated, it put the bulls-eye on
some major U.S. agricultural products, including pork and apples. Our
bet is the next time it rotates, it’s going to focus squarely on
manufactured goods instead. There’s not a lot of time left before we
see this happen. We urge Secretary LaHood and his interagency team to
buckle down and finish up their discussions. Tens of thousands of
American jobs are at stake.

The freeze that destroyed produce in northern Mexico is payback for
Mexico's economic terrorism against U.S. producers. May a major
earthquake get your country next. May the BP oil wipe out your
fishing.

So Hugo Chavez was right after all!!!

He claimed the Haiti earthquake was engineered by the C.I.A.
