Perhaps he should come out and say it like it is, that he fully supports the killing of good paying American jobs in favor of giving big business what ever the heck they want. Perhaps he should say that he fully supports Communist Chinese sweat shops.
We already know that he fully supports Mexican trucks on American highways which will have the effect of killing off more American Jobs and put dangerous un-inspected trucks on our roads amongst other things.
McCain says we will replace lost jobs by becoming a leader in Green Technology. Hmmmm, that kind of sounds a little familiar, remember George Bush saying (as he signed free trade agreements like there was no tomorrow)? We will keep all the tech jobs here. Right before he shipped technology to Communist and let all the tech companies out source jobs.
Let’s face it folks McCain wants the same thing George Bush does! Oh yeah don’t forget Amnesty! he wants that also. To be fair on the amnesty issue, Obama wants that to.

McCain’s view on free trade just shows that he is in the pocket of big business and cares more about there bottom line then how many jobs are lost. I am not sure but I think every free trade agreement we have gotten involved in has been bad for American workers.
