Obambi bumbling through policy, making it up as he goes.
This obama guy is a lightweight, and it scares me to death. Anyone could have seen the foreign relations problems with the “buy america” parts of the bill.
What happens when he makes the game-changing bad decisions and doesn’t have a mulligan?
After all the effort Obama spent campaigning in Europe last year and the response they gave him, you’d think they would be more in touch with his ideas.
Good grief, while I’m not a big fan of any “trade wars” (overblown as that fear may be), I can’t help but think that the rest of the world will see this latest move by Obama, and think “lightweight doofus”. I mean, good grief, what else COULD they think, when the French scare you?
I believe that US taxpayers money for economic stimuli should be spent on US products, but realisticly that is hard to enforce. There are many foreign made parts in US products and US parts in foreign products. I think it should be modified to buy US first, and if the US sources are tanked out, then augment it with foreign sources. Example there are very little US steel mills left, and they would not be able to provide all the steel needed for any major construction program. So if the production is maxed out, open it to foreign sources. I think the most important part of the stimulus program is mandate vendors to hire American only. Ironicly the Dems oppose this in order to cater their Hispanic constituents. The GOP needs to exploit this issue, and many blue dog Dems will joint thm in this endeavor.
He sure seems to be on the retreat in every front. Garbage in garbage out.
The EU can go to hell.
