Oops, apparently Lou Dobbs didn't tell the whole story.  Congress does seem to 
be opposing it.  We'll have to wait and see.

The WTO is negotiating to control immigration in the U.S., literally to take 
control away from Congress, what little control Congress has.  Congress and 
Bush are going along with it, at least so far.  The drive is spearheaded by 
India to allow more Indian workers into this country.   Bill Gates and J.P. 
Morgan in the meantime are opening up new major production facilities in India. 
 Zilch for the U.S.  U.S. workers cost too much.  Source: Lou Dobbs.  Also, a 
bizarre one, China is looking to supplant stores like Walmart in this country 
and sell cheap, but apparently quality, goods directly to the American 
consumer.  No word on how Walmart is taking it.   Bush's ratings are up because 
of apparent strong performance in the economy.  No mention of the fact that 
it's a jobless recovery.  Can't find a link on the WTO story.  The following is 
as close as I could find.
