Obama's really gone overboard this time!

U.S. signed agreement with Mexico and Ecuador to teach immigrants to unionize The board has said the law's protections for workers engaged in union organizing extend even to people who are not legally authorized to work in the U.S. An employer who fires an illegal immigrant worker — which is required under federal immigration law — can be sanctioned by the board if it decides the worker's union activism was the real reason for the dismissal.

Dobbs on a North American Unuion

A Certain Arrogance

My impression is that George Bush has greater native intelligence than me, and is certainly better educated and higher achieving.  I agree that it is in the United State's best interest to build a strong relationship with our natural trading partners in this hemisphere.  That said, the way he is going about it is obscenely wrong.  I used to think his reluctance to use the bully pulpit was the result of the left's practice of pouncing on every malapropism, every stutter, every mispronunciation.  Now I don't.  I think it's arrogance.  How else to explain the amnesty bill, and his total failure to explain his thinking?  Or the underlying, and very secret North America union initiative?  Just as he did with amnesty, Lou Dobbs has this one right too, IMO.
