It has allowed China to build up its military as it works to supplant America as the world's superpower.
It has cost Americans millions of jobs.
It has not led to democracy, or respect for intellectual property, or bestowed human rights on individuals in China.
It has made worse America's budget deficit.

Supports the Central American Free Trade Agreement
Laffey doesn't call himself a conservative - "I'll let others come up with the labels" - but consider: He's pro-life, supports the Bush tax cuts and the war in Iraq, and says he would have voted to approve the Central American
