But in 2007, Democrats said they weren't satisfied — so back to the drawing board, which forced Colombia to change provisions on labor and environmental rules. Colombia patiently went along to make the Democrats happy. Now, the revised pact still isn't good enough. New objections have arisen, along with Pelosi's new pork wish list." Quotes-end.png
