Joe Klein - who Glenn Greenwald has shown to be one of the most irresponsible journalists in contemporary American history - lays another egg [1]:

"NAFTA has been a wash, creating as many jobs as have been lost."

According to government data [2], NAFTA has cost America at least 1 million jobs. This is not new information - but it still never ceases to amaze me that a high-paid journalist at any publication is allowed to simply lie without as much as a nod to the actual facts. But then, I guess Joe has neither the time nor the journalistic background [3] to figure out who's right: the desperate bourgeois-pleasing Clintonites whispering in his ear, or the actual hard data that comprise those pesky things called facts.
