A Democrat Congressman working to undermine Columbia's government

This story offers a glimpse into the Democrat Party's view of global politics. Columbia is one of our best friends in South America. Venezuela is fast becoming an enemy. Why am I not surprised a Democrat sides with our enemy.

A hard drive recovered from the computer of a killed Colombian guerrilla has offered more insights into the opposition of House Democrats to the U.S.-Colombia Free Trade Agreement.

A military strike three weeks ago killed Raúl Reyes, No. 2 in command of the FARC, Colombia's most notorious terrorist group. The Reyes hard drive reveals an ardent effort to do business directly with the FARC by Congressman James McGovern (D., Mass.), a leading opponent of the free-trade deal. Mr. McGovern has been working with an American go-between, who has been offering the rebels help in undermining Colombia's elected and popular government.
