Oh, so you think the US government is going to do an immensely better job monitoring and enforcing the law regarding trucks and truck drivers than it does with people and contraband?

Now THAT is funny.

By the way, I am qualified to describe what I have observed on both sides of the border, unless you are one of those men who prefer that women just shut up and don't have opinions. Which I suspect. By the way, the pilot program was cancelled.

Mexican trucks have been crossing our border since the 1980's, if I recall. This brouhaha involves allowing them to move beyond the 20-mile buffer zone.

The pilot program was in effect for almost two years. It involved a 100 trucks. None of which mowed you down, or "came to your house," or took your children, or ate them.

The Teamsters didn't want the program, and neither did Sen. Murray. I'm just laughing at how quickly she changed her tune, and how FReepers still stick to the original.
