Is Pelosi And Co. Really Favoring Communist Terrorists In Columbia?

That is the claim.

Now... Democrats drive another nail through the heart of Pro-US Colombia.
On Monday, democrats sided with the terrorists. Democrats refused to give preferred status the crucial US ally.
From the US House Ways and Means Committee:

“With regard to the Colombia FTA, the House of Representatives recently passed the 2008 State and Foreign Operations Appropriations bill, which redirects U.S. foreign assistance in Colombia. All of us regard Colombia as a crucial ally in a region that deserves our active engagement, and the bill represents an effort to have U.S. funds help address the root of numerous problems there. There is widespread concern in Congress about the level of violence in Colombia, the impunity, the lack of investigations and prosecutions, and the role of the paramilitary. Issues of this nature cannot solely be resolved through language in a trade agreement.

“We believe there must first be concrete evidence of sustained results on the ground in Colombia, and Members of Congress will continue working with all interested parties to help achieve this end before consideration of any FTA. Consequently, we cannot support the Colombia FTA at this time.

Did you get that?
Democrats are upset about the violence in Colombia, a country that has been fighting Leftist terrorists for over 40 years!

And... Democrats totally disregard the truth:
** Colombia has knocked down deaths by unionists by 90%.
** Murders are at ten/twenty year lows. So are kidnappings. Just this past year in Medellin murders are down 40%.
(This is despite Hugo Chavez's funding of the FARC terrorists.)

Now, I'm gonna be a bit agnostic about this as I don't know all that much about Columbia. But shouldn't being anti-FARC be a given of U.S. policy for Democrats and Republicans alike?
