' _AP ~€0NOMICS WRITER , WASHINGTON - The United States on Mondav w'rapped up negotiations to eliminate tariffs and other trade barriers with Colombia, the second Andean nation to reach a .free trade deal with the United States. The agreement with Colombi·a followed a deal wrapped up in December with Peru. Negotiations are still under way with Ecuador. U.S. Trade Representative Rob Portman and Jorge Humberto Botero, Colombia's minister for trade, industry ;~nd tourism, announced the successful conclusion of the negotiations following around-t.heclock · bargaining over the w~ekend. ln a statement, Portman said that the new deal would generate export opportunities for American farmers, manufacturers and service indus- tries, helping to create job opportunities in the United States. It 's a politically sensitive ' subject given that America's trade deficit hit an all-time high of $726 billion last year. Portman said the deal would also be good for the South American country by helping to "foster economi~ development in Colombia and. contribute to efforts to counter narco-terrorism, which threatens qemocracy and regional stability." The United States is already providing signi fieant support to Coloml:iia to try to halt the flow of illegal drugs such as cocaine into the U.S. Agriculture Secretary Mike Johanns said the agreement with t;:olombia would be a boon for significant American farmers because Colombia is already America's second-l argest . agricultural market in South America, accounting for $677 million in sales of .

According to a U.S. fact sheet, 80 percent. of U.S. exports of consumer and indu strial' products to Colombia would gain dutyfree access once the deal goes into effect, helping to level the playing field between the two nations since most of Colombia's products already enter the United States duty- · free under the provisions of the Andean trade pact, The most sensitive products . would retain protections the longest with a phase out period of 15 years in some cases.

'2 14 21 Tuesday, February 28, Tuesday, February 28, 2006,. - The biparti san uproar over a Middle East company's management of U.S port facililles demonstrates how steeped American politicians are in Arabophobia. Before they knew anything about the company, Duba1 Ports World, or about secunty responsibilities at U.S. ports , Republicans and Democrats in Congress and affected states shouted a "No!" that ·has implrcations far beyond the case at hand. Domestically, it shows how politically weak President Bush has become that GOP leaders like Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist (Tenn ) and Speaker Dennis Hastert (Ill.) leaped to distance themselve s !rom Bush on the port incident. That's surely the re sult of setbacks ranging from continumg troubles in Iraq to continuing discord over National Security Agency terrorist surveillance to unfavorable Hurncane Katrina post-mortem s to flap over Vice the President Cheney's tardy reporting of his hunting accident Democrats are always re.ady to pounce when they sense that Bush 1s vulnerable, and the ports tssue was a golden opportunity for them to get to Bush 's right on the issue of fighting terrorism, even tf it conflicts with their mantra that America should use tts "soft power" to wtn friends around the world The international 'implications of the port controversy are even greater. The knee-jerk reaction of politicians tells the Muslim world that no matter what the facts of a situation might be, the default attitude of this country toward them is suspicious and hostile.

Council members Jim Sisson: Mary McAngus ' and Ruth Spaun voted against increasing parking violation and meter fees, while councilmen Pete Barnhart, George Stewart and Shawn Arnott 'voted for the increase, creating a tie that. was broken by Mayor John Musser who voted in favor of the motion. Musser's tiebreaker vote was not required to increase court costs which passed though not by unanimous decision with Sisson voting against the motion.
