Man of Steel
referred by crazywriterinla from Yahoo

Facing the threat of a trade war, President Bush on Thursday lifted 20-month-old tariffs on foreign steel, a move that will hurt steelmakers in states critical in next year's election.

Interesting move. The story broke a few days ago, right before he travelled to Pittsburgh. Not the best way to win votes in steel town. I'm not sure I can be angry with the president for *lifting* trade barriers. Why should steel not compete on the open market like every other product? (except agriculture...I predict a tirade on that one)
