Pass the U.S.-Colombia Free Trade Agreement
One of the few things this Congress might be able to do to redeem itself is to pass the Colombia FTA. But, as usual, they are playing politics.
USA Today wants them to pass it.
Condi Rice made a great case for it Monday.
And House Republicans have a collection of editorials supporting the agreement, everywhere from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times.
Even Bill Clinton supports it despite Hillary's opposition to it. Why? She's running in a Democratic primary, and he's not.
There is no economic or other legitimate reason to vote against it. Only dirty politics.
